Thanks Jeansy....Looks like I might be getting their C130 for FSX now. I've thoroughly enjoyed flying the FS9 version. Being a former USAF C130 loadmaster, I have a certain fondness for the Herk.

Can anyone give any feedback on the "B-52 Driver" package?

Is it just the VC or does it also include the earlier separately released exterior? I ask because the page still talks about a 10 Euro discount to folks who bought the exterior alone but the text makes it sound like it is now the whole package.

I've had the B-52 for awhile and I strongly recommend it. It's a fun beast too fly.
 
I went to purchase their Weapons pack and the KC-767 expansion, but both came up at full price in the checkout window. I was in the time frame too. Oh well...
 
Thanks for the heads up jeansy, I just bought and installed the C-130 Pro, and to think that I was about to bite the bullet and pay full price at Flightsim's Pilot Shop. Looks like this is a good day, got the C-130 and three Caranado birds for the price of the Herc. Time to go play with my new toys:applause:
 
I got my e-mail from Capt. Sim 6 minutes after 7:00 p.m. EST. I immediately downloaded the complete package. Kinda a no brainer as it was the same price as the other packages. Something like an 80 % savings. I just test flew the "A" model. I must say it handles much better in FSX than it did in FS9. Gotta go now as I have several other models to test fly.:pop4:

Too early, it says 14th December


can anyone comment on the 727?
Click to expand...
The CS B727 is one of the best payware planes I have ever purchased. I love flying it, have put many simulator hours in it. I have many Captain Sim planes and am completely satisfied with all of them. You won't go wrong with CS. (No, I don't work for them).
 
Have any of you'll tried the Weapons Pack? I know it's only 9.99 but I don't want to spend the money without a couple responses.

Thanks.

its not too bad but limited, if your computer savy you can set up configs for each of your aircraft (beyond me)

anyone got the 737? i like the retro look but CS can be notorious for frame hungry models, the 707 and 767 kills my machine ATM

if you do have the 737, do you have the NGX? is there much as a hit in FPS like the NGX or is it friendlier?

And whats the FMC like?

if anyone is interested

B52- i likes, smooth as slik and great to fly
707- i likes but for me its FPS hungry
all the 727 packs - i likes again smooth as slik and great to fly
all the 767 packs- I likes but I dont like the FMC setup, Im PMDG lazy and its FPS hungry for me
C130 (full pack)- I adore
Weapons- meh, mixed feelings
W/Radar- I likes, it does the job and a fraction of the price to RXP plus easy to set up
737- ( I only have the exterior ) im tossing up whether to get the full package or wait for Milviz
757- Dont have, theres not many good reviews or posts about it across the net so I stayed away from it
777- im thinking about it but i might wait for PMDG
 
I have their 707, B52 & C130

The Herc is my favourite and love loading it up even just for a couple of touch and go's, the B52 is next as it is fun to haul that big beast around.
 
How (fps) hungry is the 707?

Any other comments on the fps demands of the 707?
I see Matt says it is 'hungry', and I read a similar comment in a flightsim review. However the Avsim reviewer of this add-on said the opposite and he was running it on XP.

Need to know soon to take advantage of the 24-hour sale!

Any further opinions appreciated,
cheers :icon29:

No FPS problems in my case, B707, B727, B737 and B777 run around 50FPS but my rig is way OTT.
Love CS aircraft almost as much as AH!

Ditto here. Also have the C130 and 707. All of them very impressive in particular the highly functional systems and detailed VCs.

707 is gorgeous and not noticeably bad on frames on my 4 year old machine and card. You can use a lighter model that cuts out the passenger cabin but has the full VC. This is the best bargain around.
