I've been waiting for this, although I've never bought anything from them yet, so not sure about the quality. The pics look good but that's just one side of the story.

Ian, could you share your thoughts after a test flight?

Cheers
Dan

Sure Dan , I have had a good play , the internals are the or have really excelled this time , love to see the B-36 done out , the one glitch is when engine starts its bit like an electric motor but they are looking into that now other than that still looking .

Guys don't forget the "reviews" section of the forum. There is so much stuff being released it would be good to get a local perspectives as to what they are like.
Virtavia has always been one of those "mixed bags" from my experience.

A review is good idea and maybe something i can look into , typical of Alpha/Virtavia the external are very good , this one really looks the part but for a few features which are getting looking into and one specific is the engine start ... but as for the rest interesting to see how i approach it and with the volumes in information be a challenge worth giving a shot .

Good idea ..... i cant comment on FD , or anything like that , but if they are happy with an external critique , i would be happy to add some thoughts.

On the FD , its only the reading but the best is the Doc's to study the AOA on takeoff with weight and that level nose landing approach , to get the honest perspective is maybe the only the true way to measure it .. many areas are not covered in aspect of weapon load but generally the idea is to have to opportunity and get the feel from the drivers seat .
