On the strength of Ants freeware work I'm downloading now. For just over 10 quid it's a steal:ernae:

Edit: Great stuff. The panel and 3d modelled gauges excellent and great to have rain showing on the canopy again (last shot)!

Hi Ant,

Congrats on your release! :jump: :salute: I was thinking of buying the LDS 767 this weekend, but with your new LSA being of such high quality, (And with the LDS 767 being soooo expensive) and sooo cheap for what it is, this will provide the means for me to go broke this weekend! Seriously though, thanks Anthony for releasing this. Later today, (In Dunedin it is 12:39 AM) I will pull out the plastic. Just a quick question - what does the demo do? Is it time limited? or does it have non-functioning bits? Just a question. Also should I un-install the demo before installing the main product? Anyway, thanks Anthony :ernae: :salute:
 
Thanks Jay for the heads up, purchased and installed. Congrats Ant, beautiful work :salute:
 
This is too good a deal to pass up to be sure! Big thanks to Anthony for his freeware work, and his good natured help in this forum. :ernae:

!??!!!

Seriously? This may put me out of the game (512 here). Not bitching, I realize that my system is getting a bit long in the tooth.

Not sure it is an absolute requirement, here is what the manual says about system requirements:

The minimum PC specs are more difficult to be exact
about as even similarly specced PC's can give such varying performance. For reference I created
this aircraft on an Intel E8500 core 2 due 3.16Ghz CPU with 4GB ram and an NVidia 9600GT 1GB
video card running Windows XP


The obvious thing to do would be to get the demo version once it becomes available and see if it works with a 512MB video card.
 
Hi Guys,

Just asking, is Flightsimstore (the only vendor right now) a good vendor, with easy to use features? Or should I wait for Ant to package it elsewhere?
 
Check out Rogers specs, he is using a GTX8800 and that's just 768MB still looks good.

Crappy 512meg ATI 3650 AGP card here, and it is smooooooooth.
Love it!

Just like the Tiggie, it has that indefinable `something` in the air.

Buy it!

And yes, that is cynical old me saying it...:jump:

Purchase through paypal and installation went as smoothly as possible !
I am glad to fly another Ant's airplanes beauty! :ernae:
 
Thanks Mirage III!

This will be the only purchase I will ever have made by reputation alone! Ant's reputation and previous works are that good. Especially with Snaves comment :jump: :jump:
