MU-2

Yes this was very exciting news to see! I am looking forward to more screens and info from them as this is sure to be a great addon from a great developer!
 
Yes we are developing the Moo as we like to call it! It has been a favorite of mine for awhile now so I was happy to hear it had made the cut from Colin to make the bird. Just talked to the big cheese and he was saying that we should have some new shots for you guys in the not so distant future. We are still trying to tie up the few loose ends we have with Sabre, and getting in to the pipeline with our other upcoming projects. The MU itself has been off in texturing for some time now so the next time you guys get to see her she will look more like an airplane that a clay model. You guys can always keep up with us on the Face Book page, but I (or Diego) will always come here to keep you guys in the loop too.

THAT, is going to be one very lovely aircraft..but ummmm (opening myself up to look like an idiot here ( i do that too well at times )) isnt the pitot tube facing the wrong direction??
 
I'm a buyer. Hopeless weakness for any GA turboprop twin. This one is really a pocket rocket. The Solitaire doesn't quite have the room and comfort for PAX like the B200 or PC-12 so it is more of a personal pilot's aircraft like the AC690 (also with Garretts). IRL you need to fly - and particularly land her - more like a jet or you can get into trouble. Have enjoyed the PAD portovers but an FSX native with the fine VC detail Milviz can provides is something to look forward to .
 
Crazy idea, but...

....if they throw a "thimble" radar nose on it and blister windows on both sides, I believe you'd have the JASDF SAR variant (MU-2E)...externally I'm not sure there is much difference...

Either way, I agree it's a "must-buy" on my list. Seems like the "high-fidelity" FS game is largely tightening to MilViz, A2A and VertigoStudios, IMHO...these three companies seem to have mastered the "heavy" feel that is just awesome...

Still lots of other good stuff out there by other companies, but...seems like these three companies "kicked it up a notch"...

One of my favorites , we had a 74 MU2-K for many years
So I have been waiting it see if someone is going to do one, the one we have now is good, but needs to have somethings done to it.

I will buy it.
 
regard Mitsubishi MU-2

View attachment 77594Hi

The Mu-2 is used here in Sweden by 'Svensk Flygtjänst' (Swedish Flight Service) in Skavsta airport Nykoping. Somtime as target towing, som painted yellow.

Best Regard

We will only be doing the Solitaire, and no special variants. Between this and the 350i we are doing it will be busy busy. :icon_eek: Plus with other things we have going on in the backround we have just about the next 2 years planned out. Heading in to the spring and summer of next year you guys will get a clearer picture of exactly what that is. Lots of good stuff in store though. The Moo is one of my favorites too. For some reason I have a fascination with odd looking planes. Think that is why I like almost everything that is in the Russian inventory.
 
A Marquise would be nice but any version of a new MU-2 is welcome.
Definitely looking forward to this one.

Thank you Milviz. . .finally a developer who isn't going to deluge us with every variant under the sun and every modification ever devised that get's thrown at them in posts during the development. :kilroy:I am not worthy. . .I am not worthy!!
 
LOL... As much as we actually do kick around the idea of doing every variant under the sun eventually we wind up deciding on one. Unfortunately just about every aircraft (in my opinion) has its merits, so there are a lot of days it is hard to decide which ONE that would be the best to do. I must say that probably has to be that actual hardest part in all of this. Especially someone like me who practically likes every single aircraft ever made since the mid 1930's.
