Hi Max, have the windows been improved?

I found that on earlier versions they went completely black like an on/off switch at lesser light levels.

Sorry, I should add in external view.

Nice bird-thanks for sharing the news.

Can it go faster than 250 kias on speed hold without porpoising?

Thank you very much!   This is my most flown plane in XPX!

 

Great work....and again, a large thank YOU!

I also got the porpoising on the original. Horrible! Such a shame as it hand flys beautifully. I hope he has fixed that in the latest release.

Did you test the latest release ? Are you still having this issue ?

Hi there,

 

Not yet. I plan to download it and take it for a spin this weekend. Here's hoping as its a beautiful looking aircraft inside and out!

 

Cheers

Since 1.5 this has been my goto plane in XP - mach .64 mmo - so around 360 ktas or 6 miles per minute...  pretty good for such a little jet!

I wrote to the designer a few weeks ago about putting the plane in the Avsim library as well. Here's hoping!

Seems it's using Sasl foremost for the moving map. Hence, maybe there's hope for a later update with terrain probing. (as Sasl supports that)

  • 1 year later...

Is there a paint kit available for version 2?  I appreciate a link as I can't find one anywhere and ver 1.5 is no longer available as well but it does contain a paint kit...so I'm out of luck on two counts it seems

Cheers
