Asobo and Oliver (Not) Fischer JU-52 for MSFS Released 9/28

It's out. Looks like it's 14.99€ here.

A german / original cockpit seems to also be included. I think I'll still wait and see what kind of system modeling is done and what nav aids are included in each version.
 
Update after first impressions: Not perfect but for the money I'm not complaining. Modern version appears to be fairly close performance-wise but the superchargers don't seem modelled. I can't get above 30" MAP when I think the limit for the R-1340 is about 36"

The vintage version appears to be quite optimistic performance-wise (1200fpm climb at gross?) Maybe that's right but I'm not so sure. Sounds are very good though and the visual models are stunning.

If it's in the store, I don't see it. Must be an update required.
 
Ahhhhhhh, the perfect Antarctic explorer!

It may be somewhat basic but it is nevertheless a superb model! You simply cannot go wrong with the price.

Thank you! The audio just blows me away in this model. And this Antartic scenery is perfect for this kind of thing.

I'll take it in this week.... still enjoy MV PC-6 so no rush for me but I need it in my hangar too for 100% :biggrin-new:.
 
Had the funds in my Steam wallet, so after watching a bit of a twitch stream I pulled the trigger on this one.

Visually it is astounding. The tin surface is very well done in my opinion and also the cockpit looks really good. There are some animation errors, mainly with the control links (flaps and rudder mostly) and a big lack of documentation regarding the instruments, etc. For example there seems to be a basic heading hold autopilot function but I can´t get it to work. Sound is very well done!

Please ignore the Registration, it´s my default one and I didn´t realize before the flight that FS applies it to the livery.
 
Don´t know about performances and really don´t care too much...think it´s an excellent work, sure they will iron out any bugs, price is about half or less than half average prices they're asking for MSFS planes, I´m quite happy. Happier if I got some kind of manual and, btw, know how to enter passenger cabin with my Thrustmaster 16000.
