February 15, 201115 yr Virtavia.com only has 3 of their most recent aircraft available. If you want to find the old Alphasim products go to:Fspilotshop.com- Has a nice rewards program. You earn points which is like money for every purchase and product review that you post which can go towards future purchases for a discounted price. Simmarket.comPCAviator.comFlightsimstore.comThere may be more but those are the vendors that I use and I think they should have what your looking for, just remeber to check under Virtavia as the developer because they are no longer sold as Alphasim Products.
February 17, 201115 yr The ALPHASIM F-111 Is now marketed under the Virtavia label.It is the same aircraft , there are different manufacturers names in the aircraft cfg.This aspect has been covered in the following thread:-Problems converting Virtavia F-111 for FSXThe F-111 supplied is for FS2004 BUT works fabulously in FSX.The Panel MUST be replaced with an FSX compatible panel.As mentioned in the above thread there are two freeware FSX compatible panels currently available for it.(A) A panel by Steve Hess which is authentic and historically accurate.(:( A panel by myself ,file reference fxpiggb5.zip with upgrade fxpiggb7.zip , this panel is a modern advanced capability set up as follows:FSX F-111 PIG HUD PROJECT - Navigation/Situation awareness cockpit.REVISION 7.UPGRADE. MUST already have fxpiggb5.zip installed.Unique STAND OFF capability has been added to both Pave Tack and Radar.This is a stunning feature not previously implemented in FSX. Radar contoursnow sea level to 17,000'and radar can view any airport worldwide from itscurrent position. Flt Pln leg toggle SW can set radar view. Pave Tack now provides sharp detail close up views in steps to 20NM and has full 1 degree increments with freedom of panning. Approx 5 pages added to current 56 page Flight Manual, other minor improvements covered in the comprehensive notes.Adds to what is already an extreme capability panel and package packedwith custom instruments and concepts not available in other aircraft.All instruments and text are sized to be clearly and easily readable.Includes enhanced HUD, multiple radars,GPS units,MFDs,and effects,TFR,autopilot/autothrottle, is Carrier and Air to Air capable,ICAO entry andday/night/IFR/VFR navigation with constant current position awareness.HUD available in all views including the 10 Camera views. This package sets the benchmark for the amount, type of data provided and its presentation.Possibly the best pilot friendly military aircraft available.This is the complete panel with simple installation procedure.CheersKarol
February 17, 201115 yr A screenshot of the modern style panel, and the useage of theStand Off facility in both the Pave Tack andthe Radar are shownThe screenshot below shows the F-111 sitting on the runway at Essendon YMEN , Australia.The Pave Tack displays Lilydale YLIL which is 22.7 NM away.A DIRECT TO from YMEN to Manchester ,UK EGCC has been entered , the radar has been set to Mode 6 and is displaying a view of Manchester , text details to Manchester are shown in the MFD below the radar.This can be done for any of the 24,000+ airports in the FSX data base.Also all waypoints in a current Flight Plan can be toggled through and viewed in the radar.CheersKarol
