FSD Commander

Felix...


I am sure you could fit a nice cooler in the back that could hold at least 6 of your favorite pop-top beverages.

Think of it as a 'modified' updated XLS model... :d


:ernae:



(For those that dont know.. Felix runs FreeFlightDesign.com and Roberts Pietenpol was a huge project for us to see come together there.. The XLS Pietenpol had a unique, exotic, lavish 'beer cooler' mounted in front of the passengers panel, making the aircraft a true 'sport' plane. ;) That is the term 'XLS' )......

This is the latest Custom bird in Felix's hanger from the XLS line , in this case an FFDS cooler filled with Grolsch was released not long after the SR 22 G2-G3 when he complained of the omission .. Felix has a great deal of clout in the industry .

That should read 64 bit , and the RXP Garmin is the problem , not my work. CJ

Also , after having watched with some horror the Witchhunt that follows the mere use of the letters "FSD"
by members and even staff ( who later edit ) i kind of wonder whats in store for the Navajo , i have absolutely no intention
of seeing many months of work flamed because of peoples passion for bonfires... i would just as soon keep it as my own, i have not forgotten
the Hellcat release , in fact i kept a copy of a few of the choicer posts from the staff & members before edit as i could not believe my eyes at the time.
Personally i need it like a second Ahole and don't plan on giving anybody the pleasure if the best i can expect is what i see going on here.

This is probably as close as anybody is going to get to one hell of a fine model

CHUCK Please we need all FSD planes and the Navajo is one of my all time favorites (Cessna 337 and O2 also) and she's lookin Super
 
I guess FSD pulled the Commander. Their site will allow me to purchase any aircraft but the Commander.

Damn shame....

You mean "FSD", perchance?

Again, you mean FSD? Am really not knowing, so am asking.

I don't wanna tell ya what I think of FSD because we aren't allowed to post that kind of lanuage in these forums.

By saying such things you already have told us what you think about FSD.

A friend of mine once aptly imparted how inconvenient a thing principles are at times, though had/has no regrets of having them.
Have never, in my 55 years, ever once known anyone ever saying things such as in your third quoted snippet whom didn't
have something to hide. You got something to hide? You would be the first that didn't, in my many experiences.

This forum has many of the finest individuals & developers around, imo, though in principle:
a tree is only as good as it's fruit. They are the fruit; you are the tree. Am disrespecting
the way a FS forum adiminstrator mucks up a FS developer as you do here, "Moe".
No freedom of speech here though there is the freedom to apply principles & walk.

Ultimately, freedom is not the issue. Do not speak to me of freedom. Speak to me of Honor.

Well, speaking as someone who was told by one individual at FSD that the only reason their installer wouldn't work (for the C337) was because I had been pirating their software, I very definitely have a beef with them.

It was actually a driver clash. When I replaced my motherboard, the problem went away without me rebuilding Windows, but the refusal to help me at all did not go down well. Fortunately I was able to activate it before the installer failed (surely if I'd been a pirate, that would be where to block me?) and install after that in safe mode, so both the C337 and O-2A were working even before the motherboard change, without their help but with a lot of hassle.

On the other hand, I have also had some very good experiences with their support regarding the FSX compatibility update for the Navajo. Unfortunately, the bad experience makes me very, very wary at all of spending more money with them. Installer problems? I'll cope. I know how difficult these things are to solve and even had it not ultimately been resolvable, such is life. It was the "Not our problem. Go away." attitude that I didn't like.

Ian, we all make mistakes. I remember a really big discussion at AVSIM about FSD and the issue you are referring to. I remember several people saying that they had the same experience.

I also recall someone from FSD posting that things had changed. He said they were working to improve the installer and customer support. I can't vouch for the validity of those statements. The only purchase I have ever made from FSD was the T-38. They just never had anything else that I wanted.

However, my point is FSD seems to be trying to improve its customer service and installer process. Maybe, we should give them another chance.

I have decided to do that with Alphasim. If I see an attitude change and better quality of product, I would be willing to purchase from them again.
 
Ive always loved the 115. There have been a few for sale at Ebay's aircraft section. (Thats real world Commanders). Awesome birds.. I like that tail with the mid mounted elevator.

Cool VC as well.
