Upgrade Douglas R4D-6 (DC-3)

Featured Replies

Dear pilots,After a few years without flying I restarted my pilotcareer. A few years ago I bought the Douglas R4D-6 (DC-3) CD for MSFS 98 / 2000. I wondered if there is a possibility to upgrade this CD to FS2004 or do I have to buy the new CD.Thanks in advance for your answer.RegardsAlbert J. DijkshoornDC3-061

>I wondered if there is a possibility to upgrade this>CD to FS2004 or do I have to buy the new CD.Hi AlbertThanks for posting, and for being a supporter of MAAM so far back!It's not so much that you HAVE to buy the new CD, but that you will WANT to buy it. The latest model and those various free add-ons based on it is completely different to the one you have there, and much, much better in every way. Higher quality textures by far, better and more realistic panel and instruments, cockpit 2D views, full VC, full modelled cabin in VC.... you name it. There is no comparison.Dollar for dollar, the current MAAM-SIM R4D/DC-3 product has to be the best value going, frankly. OK, I'm biased. But just have a look at these free add-ons:http://www.maam.org/flightsim/enhance/r4d_enhance.htmSo I recommend you go for it! We'll be happy to hear more from you in this forum if you do, and will do our best to answer any further queries you might have.MarkMark "Dark Moment" BeaumontVP Fleet, DC-3 AirwaysTeam Member, MAAM-SIM[a href=http://www.swiremariners.com/cx.html" target="_blank]http://www.paxship.com/avsimlogo.jpg[/a]

Thanks Mark for your reply. It's not that I don't want to buy the new CD, but after restarting my FS activities I'm a little bit impatient to fly the R4D-6 again. But you've convinced me, I'll place an order for the CD and wait for a couple of days.Thanks again.Happy flying!Albert

AlbertWhile you are waiting, fly the default DC-3 about for a bit. Then you'll REALLY appreciate your new MAAM-SIM aircraft when it arrives :)MarkMark "Dark Moment" BeaumontVP Fleet, DC-3 AirwaysTeam Member, MAAM-SIM[a href=http://www.swiremariners.com/cx.html" target="_blank]http://www.paxship.com/avsimlogo.jpg[/a]
