Hey guys,
do any of you know where i could download a grob tutor T1 preferably with RAF markings to download for FSX? Also is there any freeware scenery out there for the RAF bases or not?

Thanks,

UKMIL make one, but I think it is an FS2002 model... And without being too harsh because I couldn't make one and they did... It could be better.

You can find it there. It would be good if they revamped it and made a new model... The actual Tutor is a fab little thing to fly and it would be nice to have a really good version to fly around in the game. RAF bases can be found by searching for 'RAF station' on the SimV free site section, or use AvSim and use their searching system. There are quite a few RAF stations, again I think UKMIL make a good few of them, but it just depends which ones exactly you want.

Cheers for the help machineman9,

This is the upgrade of the original FS2002

It works with FSX, it just wasn't built for it... Rather it was made for an earlier FS and then updated for FSX.

I've flown it on FSX, it does work.

Umm, download it to the location of your choice and unzip it (right click the folder, unzip or uncompress)

It might have an installer, if it does then click on that and it will install the files automatically. It probably has an installer, I seem to remember it having one.

If not, and for other addons like this:

Firstly check if there is a Readme inside the folder, this will give you exact info.
If not, then go to Start then My Computer. Find the disk drive that has the game installed (probably C or D) and go onto that. Navigate to Program Files then Microsoft Games then Flight Simulator X.


Copy the main aircraft folder (within the unzipped folder, not the entire thing) which for this might be named Grob Tutor to the 'SimObjects' folder and put it into 'Airplanes' within this folder.

For other things  there may be an Effects folder or Sound or anything like that. Simply copy the contents of these folders to their respective folder on the main Flight Simulator X directory within the Program Files area.



A lot of it may be fairly obvious... Copy the contents of one folder to its respective folder on the FSX folder. Once done simply load up the game.
