JustFlight Duchess FS2004

Glad to hear. I know it's not perfect, but it's sure close enough. :d

I love how it flies; it has such a heavy yet realistic feel to it. It feels like you really have to push the pedals and swing the yoke to get her to go where you want. Anyone who's flown a real plane knows that, until you get them trimmed and happy, this is how they can fly. :ernae:
 
This is what the panel looks like on a dark night...:kilroy:

Yeah, I know I was close to a stall, but with my cat-like reflexes, no problem...:sleep:
 
.....I really dislike that reddish purpleish flooding....Maybe sometime in the future they will retrofit the FSX style gauge lighting.....
 
I can understand the personal preference; it's just not appealing to you. However, as I said, please don't let it ruin a great aircraft.

I know, she's not perfect. But, I still want it to get a great review, and after more time in it, probably still a Gold star. :ernae:
 
this is a very nice aircraft and may even add it to my hanger of flyers. Everyday I'm interested less in military types and more so in the direction of general aviation.

How does the Seneca they offer differ from this one?

I have the JF Seneca, and while it's nice (and cheap), it doesn't compare, IMHO, to the Duchess...:ernae:


I bought the Seneca as part of the "Flying Club" CD, which included four other aircraft, in addition to the Seneca. Final price, including shipping....$44... Doing the math, Coonass logic told me the it was a good deal...:icon29:
 
For 21.99 US ( I believe), The Duchess is worthit. I seriously think it's one of the best deals for a single aircraft I've seen in a long long time. In a world where some paywares are above the $30 or $40 dollar mark, here we have value and quality.

Glad you like them twins, too, Pointy. :bump: :ernae:

SlamBam, I used to do the Miljets and WWII props alot, too. However, for most of us here, Gen Av is where we'd be most likely to fly. However, I do enjoy the occasional T-38 or P-51 flights, too.
 
Glad to hear it! :ernae: It's a relatively unique (in the sense that you don't ever see them nearly as much as Seminoles, which are a dime a dozen), and it's not a bad performer, either. :bump: :ernae:
 
It is a great looking model, thats for sure. That panel is first rate.

Making a sound system is extremely difficult. You do not know how difficult that is. I finally achieved that level of technology on my last plane. Its an expensive option, but a nice one. (I am a click fanatic, but I know how difficult it is for Devs to have it).

I am also, however, a night flyer also and need a VC with gauges only illumination without the dreaded dome light (flood light) feature on during flight.

Not a complaint, but a need.

Which means it would be awesome for day time flights. :d

Agreed, Bill....Well the only thing I can hope for is that Justflight will maybe address the issue with a retrofit of the FSX gauge-only illumination....possibly a service pack of some sort. Until then I will continue flying it relentlessly day VFR :ernae:
 
I just began a flight from Phoenix, up to Alaska. I landed in Laughlin for now, as I kinda had to... I won't go into detail, there... :d When you gotta land, you gotta land...:bump:

It really is a great touring ship, and I'm going to get at least 2 more hours on it today, as I need to get up there at some point. :ernae:
