Some images represent the state of the aircraft in 2005 |
Some of these screenshots were taken by our chief test pilot before the autopilot was moved and windows completed. The autopilot is on the centre console correctly but it is also now on a pop-up icon.

My hearty thanks go to the directors and staff
of Trans Global Aviation who generously allowed me to photograph many of
their aircraft gauges, gave access to their Pilot Notes and Jane's books and
especially to Schneider Trophy winner Nick Snook who has frequently
abandoned his beloved B25 in order to test my Vickers Super VC10. I have
designed a TGA livery for our full VC10 product as a reward for his hard
work. Trans Global Aviation are a real aviation company. They do not,
however, operate VC10s (although I am certain Nick wishes they did!). Also
thanks go to all the staff at the
Brooklands Museum near Weybridge, Surrey for giving me permission to
photograph their aircraft and for the wealth of information they have
provided about this and other Vickers aircraft and for running their
excellent museum in such a friendly fashion. Most of the staff I spoke with
had been employed by Vickers/BAC during the
VC10/Vanguard/Viscount/One-Eleven years in design, building, maintenance and
sales of these extraordinary aircraft. I thoroughly recommend a visit and a
Family Membership. David |
