At Last! DC-3 native on the way!

High time somebody actually released a FSX-native DC-3 to build on the default. Doesn't seem like MAAM-Sim have any chance of delivering theirs in the 75th Anniversary year, and A2A are backed-up with other projects.

Now that we can pre-order, I have a very minor question. Did a search here and in general and on Just Flight pages but cant' find the answer. Does this product have removable yokes? I thought I read a few months back that it did, but now am not so sure.

It's not a deal breaker but I like that feature. Appreciate any information.

Thanks, Phill

Do you plan to make the Turbo version, the Basler 67 ?....I think it would be a hit since there is only one and very poor. Just for it I would order ASAP!!!!
 
OK, here's a question for anyone who can answer...can the aircraft and glider be flown individually by 2 different players in multiplayer?

Let's say I pilot the C-47 and my bud is in the glider, can I release him to fly the glider on his own?
 
I got the Runway at YZF warmed up to welcome the Buffalo Paint. Banging monkey wrenches on a barrel of Avgas:jump: and getting the Herman readied for a roast.

Unfortunately I'm not sure that will be possible. There are two glider related variants:


  • C-47 glider tug - You fly the C-47, towing a Waco glider. The glider is part of the aircraft model itself, so cannot be flown by another user. You can release the glider, causing it to disconnect, drift off and then disappear.
  • Waco glider - You fly the Waco glider and can be towed by a C-47. It uses the FSX tow aircraft functionality, simply replacing the Maule with a C-47 (using a tool that is included with the software).
Thanks

Well, I took the plunge and have pre-ordered.

A man just can't have enough versions of the DC-3.

You need to understand how incredibly cheap I am to get an idea of how much I love that airplane.
 
Hi all,

Unfortunately our friends at Aeroplane Heaven have been affected by the recent floods in Australia. We hope to have the DC-3 service pack ready soon, but this has obviously caused some problems.

I'll keep you updated!

Thanks
Martyn
 
no worries mates...im sure everyone understands the situation...floodig takes priority over flight sim...
 
Please do remember that Maam-Sim is not your average commercial FS aircraft developer in need of the money to put food on table.

Not to be offensive but if i had to put food on the table with aircrafts i will not make rare aircrafts but a dc-3 too or other famous aircrafts...not all payware think only to put food on the table...sometimes i eat also standing up so not always i need the table (dont want be polemic with anyone is only a free thought, and i am not better than anyone around here)

i pass at least two hours daily reading about old models (i could use better this time releasing models), history, manufacturers,etc it's only pure passion as in past was with basketball, motorbyke and now aircrafts. with aircrafts you can fly real, virtual or with your fantasy..what's better?
 
Don´t isntall this sp1!! t messes all with the dc3 install!
In the end of the sp1 install this error always appears:
687jf_error.jpg


Translating: "The system cannot find the specified file".

And when the error appears, the sp1 install aborts and the dc3 becomes unflyable. This error appears with A FRESH INSTALL OF THE DC3!! Without any modifications of course.
I have already tried to install this sp1 3 times all with this error. After that, the dc3 is broken and do not work properly anymore. If someone fro JF looks over here, please fix this.

Thanks.
