Was wondering if their site is down.Keep getting authentication required errors when trying to open their website.Thanks

I have seen it in action now, but very dissapointed.. for 40 euros I expected a tad more.. RFP is way much better, even it was for older versions of FS.JohanA LITTLE LESS CONVERSATION, AND A LITTLE MORE ACTION PLEASE..http://www.jdserver.mine.nu/johanhttp://www.jdserver.mine.nu/va

I've seen it in action but it is a VERY-LITE product.In fact it is rubbish.Altough I myself are not able to make it like that (do it yourself then if you think you can do it better idea..) it is in comparison with the RFP nothing more than like the stock 737.Nothing special, not even a tiny little bit of systems is been produced. Nothing!.Nice for kiddies, but if you like to have SOMETHING todo while flying, forget this.Sorry, but my opinion on this.JohanA LITTLE LESS CONVERSATION, AND A LITTLE MORE ACTION PLEASE..http://www.jdserver.mine.nu/johanhttp://www.jdserver.mine.nu/va

oh dear !I dont know why but i was hoping for something that came close to the RFP 747Now we all know that is asking a lot but!!Is this how far we have come in the flight sim world , from RFP , LEVEL D , PDMG even freeware (Ifly)Am i expecting too much ???Mark

This is a simple lite simulation product it is for the people that like the aircraft models, vc, and just want to fly without setting up every single thing, if you want heavy systems just use rfp. I really dont understand why some people bash, it for not being like pmdg or lvl d complexity, those aircraft take a very long time to develop to get them right, since there's a ton of things running to get the system as real as it gets.

Yes you are right it is a lite product as advertised .There are some great light aircraft both freeware and payware out there which have more systems moddeled than the 742 I for one am not "bashing" this offering from CLS ,it is just that in my humble opinion that if you are prepared to spend your 'hard earned'on a long haul aircraft then I dont think it is unreasonable to expect (hope) for something just a little bit more involved.Finally , this is not a rant, not a critisim, just my two cents Mark

I absolutely agree. I can fly the heavy sims no problem. I own most of them. However it takes practice and set up and time. My personal life is such that I dont have that much time any more. So this lovely little 747 is welcomed to me! I dont have time for long range flying anymore any any case, but when I need a 747, this one works fine.its my money and CLS hit it right for me. Everyone else has their own needs (with respect!)Eric
