Has anyone tried them yet? ThanksBernd

A friend of mine have it and he likes it very much, I haven't asked him too much about it though than it's easy on FPS I think. Looks like a nice regional jet, wondering buying it myself. I like the real trawlers of the sky like the MD11. I kind of like to see a aircraft struggling to get the huge mass in the air. (ex-747 400F ground handler)Read the review here on avsim about it, the reviewer didn't find anything disappointing about it. Now I want it a little more too.... :)One thing I have got my &@($* kicked for is the signature. You should sign your full name.

I've been flying this plane for a few weeks now, and the thorough, well-written, and fun to read Avsim review does it justice. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it if you're looking for a modern commercial jet. The CALL! feature is especially helpful. It ensures you don't miss anything during setup and flight. I wish it existed for all my planes. I know there are other checklist type programs out there, but the aural nature, simplicity, and ease of use of this one is just right for my needs.The FMS is also fun to use, if only because it's different than that found on the Boeings and thus a new challenge. I especially liked having to learn what the FMA displays are all about. On Boeing jets I didn't pay as much attention to this as I probably should have, because I didn't find it was all that necessary for my type of flying. With the E-Jets, however, since there's no visual feedback on the Guidance Panel at all about which modes and settings are activated, you have to learn all about the FMA. I now pay much more attention to this display even on a Boeing jet and it has enhanced my flying experience.A guy named Jet Jockey over on the E-Jets forum has posted an excellent gouge (a/k/a set of checklists) for the 175. I suspect he may be the same person who wrote the Avsim review, and these checklists may be the ones referred to in the review. They are very helpful and simplify learning the plane, although the tutorial alone is excellent and does a very good job of doing this. I only wish he'd posted these before I went to the trouble of creating my own.In sum, I think the Avsim review really says all you need to know about this plane. You can feel comfortable relying on it to make your purchasing decision.Robert

Robert - I already have the E-Jets volume 1 and like it alot. Would you say there would be any significant benefit in getting the volume 2 package (call & map notwithstanding)? Thanks in advance for you input.Cheers, Pete

Has anyone tried them yet? ThanksBernd

No 64bit support on this product so I can't use it.

It works perfectly in a 64bits system.

Thank you so much guys, wallet here we come:)Bernd

Pete, I don't have V1 so I can't say. It is my impression, however, that significant improvements have been made in v2 and that it's a worthwhile addition to the fleet.Robert

I can also confirm that the E-Jets v2 works just fine on a 64-bit system. I run Windows Ultimate 7-64 and have had no problems.Robert

That's not what is says at the bottom of the order page. I suspect that if I install that on my Win764b system and it doesn't work, or is buggy, they will refer me to that system requirement :>)

• IF the user has FS9/X installed outside the win7/programs directory
• IF the user has UAC OFF.
• the only issue with win7'64' is some have issue the the weather radar simulation.
• no other negative reports that are specific to the 'latest and greatest' MS OS.

--PS: forgot to add - a small small small number of people report issue with being unable to read the AIRAC database. this releates to a faulty/broken/limited OS install that is missing/broken 'mdac' database reader. 'mdac' is a default MS OS utility that all MS OS should have ... this is a basic component of the OS. this 'mdac issue' has been reported for all broken/faulty/limited winXP, VISTA and win7 installs once every four to six months for the past 8 years. again, this is because of a broken/faulty/limited winXP, VISTA and win7 install.--

Thanks , Scoob. I also just received a note from support stating that they have tested it on Win 64bit and all is well. I think I'll go get it!
