F1 B200 King Air promo video

[pilottj]

Hey guys, spotted this over at Avsim. F1's B200 is nearing release, possibly tomorrow if there are no hangups. I imagine it will be a pretty penny tho, ~ 60USD, however it does appear to be very systems deep, almost to an Accusim level.

Cheers

Yikes! That one is for me. Finally a worthy successor to the AEX B200 for FSX.

Bloody awesome however I fear the low fps... . Luckily it's F1 with a great return policy.

Love the music, anyone know what it is?

Based on the video, F1 has significantly raised the bar in the FSX King Air world. Yes, I worry about frame rate impact with a glass cockpit, especially on older computers such as mine. I'm anxious to see this and the MilViz B350i and B350 released.

Almost there....

I'm a bit concerned about FPS impact too, although I can run the F1 182T and Citation Mustang without any real difficulties on my system. I'd imagine if your system can handle either of those, it should be able to handle the King Air. Guess we'll have to see what some of the first reviews indicate.

it's 'Emerge' by Peter Tong, Paul Rogers and Stuart Roslyn :salute:

does look a worthy replacement for the old B200

You can't 'replace' a classic King Air 200 with (shudder) glass cockpit KingAir. Way too much fancy features that distract from the only real task, to FLY!

Hopefully they'll consider a steam gauge version too.

The Milviz King Air isnt even released yet.

Downloaded and tried out. It is VERY complex...definite **** plane. I already have had FOD damage to one engine that cost me 100,000 virtual bucks LOL. Flies very nice tho. I would definitely buy this plane if one is looking to get their real life Turbine rating or King Air signonff. Really like the G1000 view of FSX airport/taxiways.

FPS not too bad, seems comparable to the F1 182. I think it might because the virtual cabin is nice but isn't overloaded with animations like the Mustang was...ie liquor cabinet, toilet, etc.


Mods might want to make this a sticky and changed title to Released.

Here are some screenies of the RNZAF B200.

Great shots, if they got the props and other systems to preform accurately, then it's an almost buy. Do wish there was EFIS version.

 

[flaviossa]

pilottj, how did you manage to get that other views? I only have VC and the other common FSX views.
Thanks!

Hey guys, I took these yesterday, cruise trip from Orcas to Anchorage. You can see some more of the systems, such as the FLC climb. Also shown are cruise numbers at max cruise and economy cruise. King Air brakes aren't cheap lol.

Flaviossa, the interior shots are just from moving the eyepoint around the cabin. You can open the cockpit doors to view the cabin by clicking on them.
