Just wondering, since it is being listed at $19.99USD, is the Catalina worth it? The price is really good, but how is the plane? Anyone own it care to post an opinion??
 
I've been thinking about getting this myself.......might have to look into it.


Lots of other life issues right now though.
 
Absolutely get it!
Got it when it first came out

Very well built plane

Watch the idle--if you pull back to far the engines die....
And you can over work the engines-watch the RPM

Yep, as Rick says, if you don't have this aircraft then get it...you won't be disappointed!
 
I've been looking at it for a long time also,and could not pass on the price today.It is very well done and looks great.The enjine management takes a little time to get used to but adds to the realism.I,m glad I gave in.
 
One of the best sims and VC's out there and a challenge to fly too. And loads of really interesting repaints. I love the soundset. If only all payware were this quality.
 
Engine management is challenging.
If you do have problems running the engines when first starting out, there is an 'easy' option available in the interactive checklist.
I find the carb icing can seem to be a little too sensitive at times, occasionally, for my personal taste.
 
How are the frame-rates on this baby? My computer is not good at frame-rates (I get excited when I'm over 6 FPS). :icon_lol:

Thank you,

Walter
 
One of the most immersive aircraft - VC and sound really make you think you are there. Engine management is not difficult and actually adds to the fun. Just don't take the Cat if you are going anywhere in a hurry! Takes off, lands and cruises all at @ 100 knots (as IRL).
