What more can I say? Actually ... *plenty*!
Firstly, we really all need to feel privileged that producers like JustFlight grace us with these prizes. It gives us a great opportunity to show off their products (and an excuse to do yet more screenshots!). I already have quite a few JF aircraft in my "hangar" and was on the point of buying the Comet anyway (JF's loss is my gain!). Thank you, Scott at JustFlight
I've always preferred the classic *British* liners (the Britannia, Viscount, Comet etc.) to their American counterparts. I even prefer the Airbus to the Boeings (but we won't go *there* will we?
). So ... having an FSX Comet was always going to be a treat. The JF offering doesn't disappoint. Even after only a few minutes to grab the first few screenshots, I can see this one is going to get a lot of air time. The outside model looks stunning and there really is a lot of attention to detail in the cockpit ... if I can drag myself back in there, that is.
I love that little radar display! You get a full size pop-up version too.
We also get Heidi's sister to appreciate in the cabin ... though her unspeakable beauty has forced all the passengers to the back of the aircraft
I've bought [far too] many add-ons for my flight sim over the years, so I think I can spot a "duff" one pretty quickly now - my first impressions are rarely wrong. There was no doubt with this one ... it's *good*!
Lastly, thanks again to Doug
- for setting up all these prizes ... and for all the hard work with the competitions themselves. This month broke all records, I think - so I expect his workload was pretty high!
