Is that with the new Military Airfields in Yorkshire package, from UKSD? Just been flying my Tucano around Linton, it's a really nice addon. Though the only problem is that the AI Tucanos seem to land on the taxiway, and stop in the same amount of space as a navy aircraft would on an aircraft carrier!

Ah, the wonders of glitches ;D

Simshed's AI Tucano, available here I believe. The full one should be out soon. I believe the VC is being worked on at the moment. Nice. Horrible colours though... ;)

Lovely set of images....the Tucano is very familiar to me.
I saw it many times here in Brasil.
What do the Raf pilots think about the Tucano?
Did you ever saw one flying in real life?
What did you think about it?
