Area51sim - c-5m galaxy out now

I wanna fly not sit there and not feel like I am punching on buttons on a fancy overpriced vending machine. For those with a button,number entering,mouse clicking fetish isnt there a fmc module that can be dropped in?
You want your fmc in your 152,Cub,P-47? Drop in your fmc and crunch numbers to your hearts content.
That would end the "wheres the fmc" cry.
And if you complain its the wrong bezel,the layout or software is outdated or to modern, uumm,time to go outside for awhile.:naturesm:

Don take this so seriously. Flight plans,rules,regs,fmcs,safety all just stand in my way of having fun. Also reminds me alot like work.
To try in a futile attempt to get back ot.
C-5s once filled the skies in Charleston where I flew in and out of alot. Controllers would ask if you had one in sight and I use to laught. Dam things use of most of the air and if you had a clear day and more than 4 or them it was called mostly cloudy.
 
How is the land simulation? Do the tires smoke before they hit the pavement, like the default 747, or is it as real as it gets? Plus do any of ya have some VC photos, in the daylight?

c'mon, someone has it. I can't find more screenies anywhere.
 
This must be one of the hardest releases to get any info out of. I'd love to see those quality screenies of the VC too:monkies:.
 
Tomorrow's payday, so I'll probably pick it up and post some shots then if no one else has.

Maybe that fact should tell you to 'be cautious' before commiting to buying it. If it were up to some releases of recent months, this forum would be awash with pics!

I would like to know if all or most of the switches, dials, buttons and levers work. One thing that is not great is to see a great looking cockpit and then find that most of the buttons and other things are inoperative. Not saying the sim is bad just what I would like.

hmmmm...


Can this product really be that bad? There's at least one person in this thread that bought it. Initial reviews aside, it actually looks really good. There just isn't any information on it besides a few bad reviews.
 
I'm not buying until I get some pictures, VC, Landing tire smoke, and does it have a restroom? On long flights I just can't hold it! :kilroy:

Thank you!!

Can we have a pilot's eye-view shot? How are the sounds and flight dynamics? Will it taxi on low thrust settings?
 
Tigisfat, here's the pilot's view you requested. I picked this up late enough in the day that I won't have any time to fly, so I can't go into much more detail than what you see. One thing worth noting is that the sound is aliased to the default 737. However, I don't find this to be too much of a bother since there are a couple of good sound sets, c5aglxrd.zip and cf680c2b.zip which can be picked up flightsim.com. I searched for "Galaxy Sound" and they were the first items returned.
