Does anyone know of a good freeware concorde model for FS2004? If it has also a paintkit (white) it would be most welcomed. Thanks for any info.

There's the Project Mach 2 Concorde (available at
http://www.fsfrance.com/Projets/Mach2/Main_eng.htm), originally for FS2002 but updated for FS9. It has a VC and although said to be frame-rate heavy, it works well enough on my ageing system!
Also, the original FS2000 Microsoft Concorde will work in FS9 with a bit of judicious tweaking - last time I looked, it was available here on the downloads pages for FS2002.

But it is horrible to install!

I know PM2. It is not that difficult to install for someone who has installed several addons but for a new VA pilot I agree it can be a nightmare. In addition they do not allow you to make full packages of repainted aircraft to make things easier.

I had no trouble at all with installing PM2 concorde.
But I recommend that as the freeware concorde, and add the killer bunny afterburner effects plus the FS2004 FDE from Project Mach 2 website.
Anyways the only problem I have with PM2 concorde is I can't figure out how to close those air dump doors that's between the intake doors and the engine intake on the bottom of the concorde, it always stays open no matter what I attempt to do, speed or alt, no change.

Just do each instal section in order as they appear on the FSFrance page and you'll have no probs. They are all self instaling .exe files so it's not that hard, just takes some time that's all. I Believe there is a blank paintkit available from the same site as well. No, I can't shut those doors either! I don't think they are animated.

They're not animated, you can't close them at all. It's in a FAQ somewhere, the doors are like that permanently.

Any ideas about where is that paintkit? I could not find it in the site.
