I Can't Quite X-Plain it!

Here's my few from X-Plane. Screen shots do it no justice  B) (Quite obviously un-edited :P

JUST JOKING!!!!..... Great captures. 2&3 are very cool indeed B)

Nice shots! How do you like the 747-8 so far?

Thanks! I like it ;) The actual modelling is superb, the texturing could be a little better. It needs a new sound engine too. The systems simulation is pretty good, I'm happy with the FMC. This plane certainly has a lot of potential! It was worth the money IMHO  ^_^

So, it doesn't have custom engine sounds, right? Do you know if they plan a cargo version?

Oh they definitely have custom engine sounds, they aren't that bad. It's just the default X-plane sound engine that drives me cracked! As for a freight, I honestly don't know.

Ok, thanks a lot! It's either the Ramzzess 777 or this 747-8i what I'll buy this weekend. Sooner or later, I'll end up having both! ;-)

Ah, never mind what I said about the sounds  :rolleyes:  I made this http://library.avsim.net/search.php?SearchTerm=genx&CatID=xsounds&Go=Search

I don't mind it as much anymore.

 

The Flight Factor 777 is very good too. Both are worth getting (eventually)!

LOL!  :Sick:  :bad: Have you tried flying that thing?

So you're saying you were basically out of control when you took that pic? Hahahahahaa  :lol:

 

Yes- I've tried the chopper once...most terrifying sim experience I've ever had..Throttle works in reverse I discovered after we took off as my throttle on the joystick was at normal idle position and when the chopper loaded and I moved the throttle forward off idle and it instantly went to full power and away we went..

I didn't think I was going to make it.. took about a minute of terror before I could regain any semblance of control and understand what was going on.

Longest three minutes of my life until I got it back on the ground.  Still punchy after that one..

That's enough to put me off even trying! I'm not a fan of heli's at all, but X-Planes excellent flight dynamics gave me incentive to at least try it in the sim world ;)
