Sibwings An-2 is released

I noticed strange CTD with this model - always when I saved a flight and load a saved flight again (for example, after fly, landing, save a flight on the airport, next day I open a flight again and Id like to take off from cold start - after 5- 10 minutes CTD in this time). If I take "not saved" model in too same airport always is ok (sometimes when I take "end of flight" and leave FSX have CTD too). Strange, someone noticed too same with saved/loading file with model of An-2?
 
I went of a buying spree getting Orbx PNW and 6 addon airports. Now after getting a few hours in the AN2 I can say its the easiest most forgiving plane I have ever flown. I only scanned the manual and thought it would be as moody as the A2A planes with accusim.With no clue as to how to run the engine I am yet to blow it up.No clue as to the V speeds but yet to stall it or overshoot any of the less than 2000ft runways.Handles like a oil tanker and you basically drive it like one.
Mine starts off running and all I need to do is click on every switch that powers something.
I was also scared off at first by all the activation horror stories.
I am happy to say activation was very easy and quick.So anyone sitting on the fence IMO go ahead and get it.

BTW-I also bought the Sibwings Bird Dog and it has quickly became one of my favorite low and slow planes. Incredible "you are there" overall feeling when flying it.The best plane I own out of 50+ for doing sightseeing or pattern work around the denser Orbx sceneries.
 
Near finish...

Superb piece of work YOYO :applause: Now who's for a multiplay , everyone with a different paint ... Crikey that would be so :cool:<input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><input jscode="leoInternalChangeDone()" onclick="if(typeof(jsCall)=='function'){jsCall();}else{setTimeout('jsCall()',500);}" id="jsProxy" type="hidden">
 
Nice one Bruce :cool:, they really did come out with some gawdy colour schemes .. almost like the owners went out to their back shed and grabbed the half used cans of paint and away they went with the brush's :icon_lol:<input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><input jscode="leoInternalChangeDone()" onclick="if(typeof(jsCall)=='function'){jsCall();}else{setTimeout('jsCall()',500);}" id="jsProxy" type="hidden">
