Outstanding news! Looking forward to it for sure!!Trevor

Whow, that is great news indeed ! Michael

Samdim, this is realy great! There is only one pity thing: It seems that the AN24/26 is getting more and more behind, though it is flown still today. I think quite a few enhancement could (should) be done there.Gabor

Samdim,I just installed it and it is hard to find words. The flying palace is sooo beautiful and so is the entire atmosphere of the package.Thanks a lot !!Mike

The Tu-114 is truly superb!Many thanks to the Samdim team for a wonderful representation of a great aircraft.

Sandim team, the 114 is really great, thanks for your contribution and keep up the good work!

Samdim,Congratulations, the Tu-114 is STUNNING! Bravo, Bravo!!Two quick questions for you.1. Regarding the Second Pilot's panel. I run two monitors and would love to undock that panel and drag to the second monitor. Is this possible?2. I would like to add engine smoke effects to this and was wondering if you had any idea of how it smoked, at what engine RPM level it started, and the intensity of the smoke. Any help would be appreciated! Was it as intense as that seen on the An-12?Thanks for your time and efforts! I am looking forward to the Tu-134 and Yak-42!Regards,Trevor Henderson

Two quick replies:1. No idea. Ask Sergei Golosov2. No idea, i think it uses a default smoke effect. I am not sure TU-114 smokes like An-12, a bit less pollution maybe :) As for RPM limits - i don't know either. If you find the trick, that's would be great. The best solution would be a little smoke at low RPM and more black smoke at high RPM.

Thank you for the quick reply! I will experiment with it to find a nice effect.

hi i wanted to say thank you for that wonderful plane, it is truly the ultimate prop airliner :). will there be a paint-kit available? are you guys going to build a il-96 one day? thanks again

Hi SamdimIs it possible for you to make a Tu-114 Lite - without vc and interiors - for those of us (me) with lower end computers? My computer just can't cope with the current model.Best regards!Gavin

>Hi, I see Soviet aviation got its own topic. Cool, thanks to>administrators!I think you deserve that, Samdim & the team. Wonderfull simulations in the Antonov range and the Tu-114. Flew alongside a Bear C in the 60's in a 104. The noise was LOUD. Congrats on this sim. Just wondering what you guys are up to next time. IL-14 would do (in the Samdim quality pse)flying is an art....

Congratulations to the crew at SAMDIM for their award at flightsim.com. Great job guys dogsbodyflying Russian aircraft is an art....:-jumpy

I too love this bird. It's been "grounded" until I learn all the instrumentation. Got it up in the air this evening only to "overstress" it and crash. There are a couple of 'problems' I've encountered. a. Nav radios only change the full freq. number (e.g. 123.00} when dialing backwards. Only the decimal number changes when going forward. b. Com radio dials only change the decimal number and not the full freq. number c. The auto pilot ascend or descend setting dial has the english 'pop-up' too far to the edge of the screen so that the setting number is 'off the screen and can't be seen. Are there ways to 'fix' these? I too have to learn how to navigate this beauty.Great plane although I do take a frame-rate hit with it.
