Will you get to fly this more than once?
Certainly, but you have to aim for a cruising speed of up to 128 km/h (70 kts), so you will only fly over 128 km in an hour (about 70 nm). The exception may be flying with the wind, it will be faster
. Rather, it is a journey for patient people with some jazz as a background ;>.
It looks very well done, and based on the manual it appears to be quite detailed systems-wise as well...with quite a steep learning curve if you choose to fly it in 'career mode'. Clearly a passion project for the developer, as I can't imagine this will have wide sales appeal, but I'm always happy to see variety in our FS world!

I would assume the career mode would be along the lines of what they did with the Farman Goliath.
This falls into the same category as their Goliath for me. So much appeals to me but cruising at 65 knots, I just know I would not fly it much.
I wish them well though, it looks remarkable.

A fair warning might be in order. In the dev's Discord, it's been discussed that this addon will heavily impact frames. If I'm remembering right, they listed a 2080 as the minimum GPU to run it. I have a 1080, so I'll have to pass. Looks neat, though! (If this has changed, someone please correct me as I'm not wanting to spread disinformation, but RedWing and their beta testers were the original source.)

i have it beta tested,i have a 1080 ti......
yes it is heavy on my system,but if you not fly in ny or other heavy scenery it work for me,and there is a light version,but i test the standart.
so i think with a 2080 you are save....
and it is no aircraft were you jump in and fly,you need to learn it.
it have a lot detail and a lot systems simulated.....
edit;
new info is look like new minimum 11700k and rtx3070 to be save!!!
cheers Ralf

It probably also depends on the version. The highest version has many more elements, also more 3D cockpits, more people etc, the lite version will probably be the lightest for the system load and will have the smaller FPS impact.
