Hey guys. Wondering if any one has any idea where i'd be able to get a freeware Tornado GR4? The dsb design version wont work on my computer for some reason. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi James
The DSB GR4 was really the only decent freeware GR4 and only F3.
Giovanni Clemente did a few Tornados for FS2002...
Payware wise, if you are patient and check regularly you may pick up the Just Flight RAF Tornado package quite cheap (

We're good here arnt we ;)
With the DSB / IRIS Tornados, I see little advantage in getting their payware one, over the freeware one, the addition is a panel, a VC and a couple of extra models.
Especially when you could buy the LAGO one (Or "RAF Tornado" its the same model, just with fewer model / texture variations *I THINK*)

im not sure, its just that when i try to load the aircraft from the main menu at whatever airport it happens to be as i press the "fly now" button the sim just shuts down instantly
its the only a/c that does it, realy confusing

james
what is even more confusing is that the dsb typhoon has no probs at all, that is prob one of the ost flown a/cs on my sim
is there no way someone could sned me one of the payware ones, like the iris/dsb oneor something, or even upload it here at simV?

or is that pushing it a bit???

most odd,
and no we wont be supproting piracy, so i'll pretend you didnt ask me to send it you. (even though i dont have it)
tried re-installing it?
or try disabling parts until you work out whats up, often the panel is to blame with rouge gauges, so alias it to the Lear or somesuch (I can provide a panel.cfg that will do this if you need)

ive re-installed the sim and the bird, but with that panel.cfg, does that have a new panel? the one tym it did work (the first time) the lear panel realy didnt impress me, i much prefer the fighter-ish panels, like with the AFS-design typhoon

just for now, slap the DSB Typhoon panel in, if it works, then take the time to d/load a tonado panel and put that in instead.
If it dosnt work, come back here and i'll try and think of another fix ;)
