See dev statement:
"A massive amount of systems modeling and coding has gone into this package. Including correct engine start procedure with option of ground or on-board cartridge starting."
I feel cheated and that is not a question how much money was wasted.
There will be no update as long as repaints, paintkit and effects are more important to customers than proper engine parameters.

At US$22.99 (around A$21.00) I'm not going to whinge about the product, especially as one might expect updates if needed.
Of course if you don't mind the restrictions you could simply keep flying the 'Demo'.

Being a F111 nutter i have both , I have found the Just Flight , Bazzar's Aardvark simply brilliant by compare to the Virtavia model altho this has more versions . This aircraft is much smoother with the canopy railings rather the lessor points giving squared points of the F111V , the F111JF textures are also superb, it is also an easy model to paint . The best feedback is from the many FS simmer who stop by to have a look and without having to point out the differences instantly decided on this model

I am certain that there are many F111 pilots on this list that can tell us just how good or bad the Just Flight simulation is. There is of course another F111 in the works as an alternative.
Hmm, should mean in "off" only the bracket/frame is visible, not the glass plate, as it was in the Demo version.

ah I see what you meant now.
Well, the recent upgrade/production version was modified to a clear bracket because we have installed a conformal, columated HUD which the original demo did not have. Until we work out another way to do it, it's just the way we have to do it to have that kind of HUD which was requested by quite a few people. Oh well you can't please all of the people...

Was to be released nearly 14 months back , but we all no posting the likes of a release date is silly , but yeah i'd be interested to see what more this virgin group has to offer , i do believe variable flex wings from screens and vid two years back .. I guess its good to stick ya toe in the water before jumping in but i cant even get any response or a click to get on their forum ? .. private mails and all ..... lets hope the service once released is better .

The JF version has a huge amount of bespoke animations many will not spot or know about. However, we don't have flex wing because with the complex code required for the swing-wing/loadout pylon and flap deployment routines it meant a lot more than what the model would sensibly take (let alone the modeler!). We wanted to ensure that the swing wing worked correctly in relation to flight dynamics. This for us was far more important for users than say wingflex whch is visual only. If others have it together with proper flight dynamically effective swing wing and flap operations then good for them. We know we would still be developing the title if we had gone that route and frankly I don't think JF would be terribly impressed...
Devs produce for different reasons. We are not an A2A but then we produce far more products in a year, believing the offering of a large choice appropriate for the market. Other devs specialise in one or two types only which although admirable in dedication, does not usually provide for good cashflow in a commercial sense.
If we were all the same, choice would virtually disappear and you could look forward to a rate of maybe 2 -3 products a year coming out. Horses for courses as they say.

Well said Baz! I think its important to remember this also when people come here on this site or anything demanding a style to be the same from one developer to the other. For me....I want variety and as long as the developer is open with their intent....than so be it. If you don't like it...don't buy it.

And that is the only sensible way to operate a business in this day and age.
I'll take a choice of aircraft in the 75% realism range over the 95% range any day.At least I get a variety instead of the same old same old complicated (------- fill in the blanks) aircraft, and yes, there are simmers who are overly obsessed with a single type with everything that rings there bells, but I 'fly' for 'fun'.

Been there, done that and bought the t-shirt...twice, hence the Challenger to compensate for my loss last year (kidding, sort of). Anyway, my thoughts are with you this coming season that it will go well for you my friend. Now, get back to painting.....there's a drought of Skyhawk paints out there.

As to the Skyhawk paints....I will be packaing up a couple tonight and Hopefully will get one or two more done tommorow.
Funny you should say that about the Challenger....
Here is what I bought to compensate....lol....

Looks nothing like a Skyhawk .. splash a lotta paint on her and you will be Jake and really look like a real F111 pilot

Look forward to paints for the Vark as well, though I don't have the Skyhawk just yet, I do own the F111 and love it. Just one tiny oversight, have to reinstall FSX again.

Sweet car! Love calibrating their speedo's with my MOPAR product. Seems great minds think alike, though I lack your painting skills.

Ya...great fun for sure...as I've calibrated a few Challengers myself......their headlights are kinda bright though......thank god I have automatic mirrors.......
:salute: All good fun man! But you are correct....Cheers!
