Just Flight C152

[Guest BrianFletcher]

What's the popular opinion of the 152 from Just Flight? I was eyeing it up earlier but figured I should wait to hear what others say.

Mmm..The Dreamfleet C-152 has still a place in my heart. It's a nice airplane for familiarizing yourself with the popular Cessna 152 trainer although I rarely fly it because it's too slow. It's a bit dated IMO due to older design techniques (slow refresh of gauges. Andrew Herd did a nice review of the Dreamfleet/Flight1 offering here: http://www.flightsim.com/cgi/kds?$=main/re...152/fl1c152.htmJustFlightBut also JustFlight in it's Flying Club package did a nice job in recreating a C-152. And the good news is you can try it as a demo: http://www.justflight.com/product.asp?pid=85http://www.justflight.com/img/screenshots/...4951CXI5P-L.jpgThe C-152 is a simple airplane, no frills. I think the looks of the JustFlight offering is better. The VC is very good IMO, nice click-ables. After the last update the avionics are very nice. Although I appreciate the flight characteristics of the Dreamfleet more than the air file of the JF Cessna.Now you probably like to know that a very nice freeware C-150/152 is in the works from that french guy who also made that nice C-206, and his new C-152 also includes a taildragger..see the details at sim-outhouse.com. But I forgot thedevelopers name and for some strange reason I can't reach sim-outhouse anymore. Look for a post called '150 betascreenies'All the best!Rob "Holland&Holland" de Vries http://fool.exler.ru/sm/fly2.gif"To go up, pull the stick back. To go down, pull the stick back harder"

Nice...I think I'll save my money and stick with freeware on this one.
