It is nice to see that this addon is finally out. I have two questions for users who have installed this addon. The two questions that every simmer wants to know. 1. How are the frame rates 2. How realistic are the AI models as opposed to WOAI which has really good models? I need to see some advantage to spend that kind of money. Thanks in advance.

..and 3) how is the Ga traffic at the non class B airports...

And 4, does it do helipcopters believably? given that there is another product which does.al

What about military traffic?

What about military traffic?

Tom had some good news about military traffic, but we'll have to wait a bit. See this thread.http://ultimatetraffic.flight1.net/forums/...ts.asp?TID=5613Thaellar

I ran MT 5.2 for a spell and have to say that military jets just get in the way.It's like that episode of Jetstream where they fly to LAX in 2 Hornets and get stacked bewteen heavies bouncing on their turbulance.

let me add to question 1: I am extremely pleased. Have now commercial traffic at 100% and GA at 60% and no noticable hit for me; just nicer aircraft models. The latter shall not answer Q2 since I never had WOAI planes installed but MTX. And these now are IMHO much nicer than those of MTX.Cannot speak for GA traffic yet, checked the big irons and hubs so far. and for military traffic, see the other post above; obviously there might be something in teh [email protected], 8 GB DDR2-800, ASUS P5E-VM HDMI, 8800GT 512MB, Vista64

Thanks for the input. It is very helpful. I owned the first UT but it was hard on my system. I shelled out anyway. if I don't like it I will utilize Flight1's return policy. The fist UT and the WOAI had models that were not optimized for FSX. I am hoping that these models will make a big difference. I will post my own impressions when I get a chance to review and test the addon.

I just read that the UT2 aircraft are DX10 compatible/versions. Please report your findings. Would be glad to hear from you. Phil

Sorry I will try to get to it tonight and do another test. I did a quick one last night and noticed that there really was not that much traffic at JFK with FSDreamteam's addon to really give me a good test. A preliminary test with the jetways enabled for the AI netted a very positive result. It was a brief taxi and take off with the PMDG 747 Over all, very smooth even with the extra animations and fairly taxing airport with a taxing aircraft. I will try again tonight, hopefully (wife willing :( ) and report.

2. How realistic are the AI models as opposed to WOAI which has really good models?

The Boeings, the Airbus aircraft, the Dash-8's, the Saabs, the MD narrow bodies, the E-Jets, the F70/100, DC-9, JS31, JS41, Metro, TU-204/214, are FSX rebuilds of the AIA and TFS models used by WoA - with textures by many of the same painters. To be FSX SP2/ DX10 compliant those models have to be updated and run through some new and very expensive modeling software - the professional updated version of gMax.The other models are the My Traffic X models by Burkhard Renk - DC10, MD11, CRJ, ERJ, BAe/Avro RJ, ATR, B1900, F28-4000, AN-24/26, IL-62,-76-86-96, TU-134/154, Yak-40/42, GA jets - Legacy, Challenger, Global Express, with the same repaints as My Traffic X.Without a doubt you will want to retain some WoA packages, especially cargo airlines and some charter airlines.Since UT2 uses published real world airline schedules, those operators who do not publish schedules in OAG are not included. The WoA traffic files exist just fine with the UT non-traffic file injection methodology. But any additional traffic files must be FSX compliant. I strongly recommend they be converted the freeware with AI Flight Planner.
