IRIS updates Texan for FREE

The aircraft has always handled pretty well for me but needed work in areas, I do like to think now it is more spot on and I do enjoy flying it more (flaps still fell exaggerated a little and always have for me). But the Advance covers the systems more, so Autopilot I enjoy now and another biggie was more functionality to the Gauges (EHSI/EADI) so that helps add to the realism and learning. And simming sound goes a long way the TSS sound is nice even thought the turbo prop always sounded nice. The manual is nice too and has a lot on info in that makes for a good second time around with this bird.

It you have the Texan already without the Advance or SP2 check it out, the free SP2 Update to see if you like those changes. With the free you get flight model update, gauge update with improved EADI, EHSI and working NACWS and a full manual (You will feel the difference)... So just about everything I said above. If you like that a want a little more (like TSS or New texture set with improved bump maps, specular maps and diffuse maps across all liveries you can go for the Advanced. I went right at the Advanced since I have always liked this aircraft and always fun to fly.

I'm mainly wanting to know if the aircraft flies clean now. Before, it was pretty fake and built lots of AOA.
 
Where do you get the update? I want the Air Force Academy texture and nice cockpit lighting.
