Alphasim T-34C Mentor is OUT!

Looks good,was waiting for Carenados,but talked myself into this one,but had to get a new password from Alphasim,and they keep telling me invalid password ,and they just gave it to me, so I'll just wait on the other one if it ever gets here.
 
Well finally got a password that works,but can't get it to run at all the prop is turning but it dies,and the start procedure don't work.I don't have a clue.
 
From what I understand you must follow the start procedure exactly in order to get it to fire up.

It replicates the real deal very closely.

Hi - Anyone got any good screenshots of the VC day and night?

I have done this myself...check the fuel level and top it off. Sometimes you'll have a situation where the flight loads without fuel.

I don't have the bird but I am guessing the payload manager may set the fuel to zero automagically.
 
I'm happy that that simware houses are creating these "real as it gets" models for those that like a high degree of involvement. BUT why can't they offer versions that just fly?
I have a B377 in the hangar that never get's airbourne any more because you have to stay in the cockpit...I spend 90% of my flying time in spot view; I have no aspirations to be a real pilot I just love the relaxation of cruising (usually low and slow) in the virtual world, as a great way to de-stress.
I'll pass on this as I hate to muck about trying to get the engine started and it's on page 100 of the manual.

Your right - they should give us the option. I am a real PPL A and H but there are times when I just want to get flying without getting technical.

I cheat by slewing the aircraft to a 1000 ft and usually all springs to life!
 
She should load with full tanks. Ctrl-E works for me every time to get her started. It's a turboprop so there is the jet windup before the prop starts to move. Try Ctrl-E a few times if necessary.

Is this for FS2004 as it is advertised on the shop page for it?

No,this is strictly FSX now. It was originally intended for both but just got too complicated from using FSX specific tricks that the FS9 version was dropped. Looks like they missed that one very important reference while changing things.
