Were driving there in another earlier few postings, It is a goodie

[hasegawa]

Yes, I know Ian

Now it is out, but I can´t write about, because I write a review for the german FS-Magazin. A nice job, because I like this aircraft. It is not pretty, but has something...

[Ian Warren]

Andreas , I'm very sure Aaron Swindle maybe working on a sound set , this is still to be confirmed and maybe a secondary addon or simply a patch , I don't know.

[hasegawa]

Ian, the Soundset is in my eyes perfect. No Adon for the Adon nessesary. Have flown it yesterday for the first time from Cardiff to London Luton... O.k. here I must stop. Write a review about it.

Before you get yourself in deep hot-water

no 2D cockpit? tried to add one from another aircraft but just results in an invisible aircraft. Sorry...good-looking aircraft but will hand over to someone else who prefers 3D cockpits.

Goff, 3D really is the way to go , adds to the model completely, easy to read the instruments and get a feel for the approach's , best way off putting it is like sitting in the aircraft , maybe you should use it as your 3D training

Eyesight not the best. I'd need a big TV for 3D cockpits. Thought 2D cockpits were standard, with 3D being an added bonus.

[Ian Warren]

Goff , there is a brilliant little Eyepoint tool the package that is ideal to move around the cockpit , sideways and up and down , once in the 3D cockpit press shift 1 this allows you to move around your cockpit in nearly a 2D view , its brilliant

[cowpatz]

Is there a (English) review anywhere for this? Forums seem quiet.

[Ian Warren]

Seems everyone has gone quiet , I am enjoying this tho .. tho still has a few issues , no real review as yet , personally I like it very much , the sound can be change via CBFS HS748 if justified but the modelling looks superb.

Thanks, Ian. I found that. My Hat Switch also helps. Got seat position into a good position - looks great for 3D-panel fans. Unfortunatley, I am not one of them. I will be more alert to user reviews in the future...and any marketing blurb which omits "2D Panel".

Not a complete waste of money - my son is a 3D panel fan, so he gets a free aircraft.

What you need too do , and dang pleased your son is into this deal is setup your own private MP with him and a shared cockpit option , from there while one is flying the other maybe adjusting radio/nav , none off this GPS , fly by map/chart , I believe .. wrong word , I Know you would seriously enjoy that , trust me .. It dose get busy , but also the time to enjoy it

[Ian Warren]

Just Struck me Goff , TS is free courtsey off NZFF , easy to set up , you would be met by all , but then I can set up a MP Multiplay , super simple to get up and running , won't do anything silly , just a point to point ride between two centers

Geeze..thanks for you input, Ian. The quality of the F27 looks superb - and I'm mighty pleased Just Flight produced this aircraft.

As you may be aware, until very recently, I've been a strictly-FS9er...but, (thanks to the Orbx sale over the New Year), have now moved on to FSX. Your suggestions re Mplay shared-cockpit could be something to think about in the future. There's too much exploring to do right now, (I haven't even landed on a moving aircraft carrier, yet...lol).

Cheers,

Goff

At the mo , forget the Aircraft Carrier .. You need to be a "Naval Aviator" to do that

The Future is now , so easy to set up a Multi-play , its really only 5 minutes , drag ya son on board , get the TS going , get practiced in the art off being an NAC pilot plying your trade across the friendly skies

[Goff_nznr]

Geeze, Ian...simply mentioning "NAC" got me all worked-up and ready to go. Assume there will be, (or already is), a paint scheme...?

Have since been encouraged by my lad and another simmer to try out the 3D panel. A payware F27 has been a long time coming...so I guess it deserves a bit of extra effort.

Thanks for your encouragement.

Goff

[Ian Warren]

The NAC paint is a go course the many variations going thru 'the eras' and course add the Mount Cook/CIVAIR/RNZAF

[Wildbillkelso]

What about this one?





Early W.I.P., this should become ZK-BXE in its 1977 habit.


Cheers,
Markus.
