I'm not worthy enough to fly something that beautiful! :jawdrop:

Freeware!?!?!

I'll be snarky and say it, that there puts some payware developers to shame! :icon_lol:


WOW!!! :applause: :ernae: :applause:
 
n/m - I really need to start reading manuals...

apparently this model has all of its controls accessed through pop-ups - :kilroy:

since it is free there is no complaint - just would have liked a stablemate for Miltons A-26
 
yes it is native FSX - but the VC is (to my mind) incomplete...

I have viewed the FS9 boards here a few times to see why many have decided not to upgrade to FSX and surprisingly to me, there were many there who posted that they prefer 2D pits and pop ups to the FSX style -complete- VC

I don't get why that would be other than up until this iteration of MSFS - that was all there was...and some are reluctant to change even when the changes make it even more 'real as it gets' :kilroy:

i prefer fsx, but i admit i am a 2-d panel guy. most vc's are
hard for me to see where stuff is
Click to expand...

this makes sense to me as my eyesight is declining - so I am not against pop-ups as long as the VC is complete and I have the option of using them where needed.

This plane is a nice model - extremely well executed and I thank the authors

:ernae:
 
Yes, you are correct - the VC is incomplete but intentionally so. When this was first released by Roy Chaffin, I posted a set of impressions on AVSIM in which I mentioned my own wish for a more complete VC and my desire for elimination of the pop-up 2-d panels. I did get a response at the time from a fellow named Steve (last name unknown) who said he was the creator of the software and that he intended to upgrade the representation to include a full VC. Well, that didn't happen. It's been several months now, and I suspect Steve's good intentions were overtaken by events and competing projects. Unless Steve gets motivated to ressurect this project, we probably are looking at the final result.
 
I also hope Steve decides to / or has the opportunity to continue working on this fine airplane - what there is of the VC is really quite good. :ernae:
 
Great bit of freeware. Very surprised there don't seem to be any repaints other than the one shown. Anyone know of any others?

Very nice pics Sberlins ! The Eyefinity technology looks tempting...

I'm looking going ATI just for it in a new build. It looks much easier to manage than the Matrox multimonitors contraption and Nvidia doesn't have the equivalent (so far...).

Seems you run three monitors in an horizontal row, at what resolution and frequency ? Do you get a good framerate and ease of use with FSX ?
 
Thanks for this one. during my FS 9 days I would spend a lot of time in the M.A.M. B 25 And now in FSX I have missed her. This is pretty close if not better. Thanks. :applause: And freeware as well.
