January 29, 201412 yr Obviously, I am not expecting anything better than the Comet, but what do you think for $8?
January 29, 201412 yr For $8 I'm going to get it!! Their DC-3 is pretty good aswell ATP MEL,CFI,CFII,MEI. Type Ratings B-737, ERJ-190,ERJ-170
January 29, 201412 yr I'm considering it as well. It looks nice, but the systems aren't study depth and the vc looks brand new which is a shame. A bit of dirt wouldn't go a miss! However, I did see a topic on here recently that someone gave a load of edits to the aircraft file that made it a little more realistic, so that may be worth a search B) Toby Rottner
January 29, 201412 yr I paid the full price for it as it was an aircraft I wanted for some time and there was no sign of the proposed PMDG DC-6B appearing. While, as I expected for a Just Flight product, it is certainly not even close to PMDG standards in terms of systems modelling, overall I have to say it is not bad and I have enjoyed flying it. If or when PMDG produces a DC-6B, will I buy it - probably yes - but in the interim for $8, I would say go for it! If however you want a classic large piston-engined airliner that you can fly by the systems, then think about the A2A Stratocruiser Bill

January 30, 201412 yr Picked it up for £5, less my loyalty point came to just £1.06 ! Only loaded and flew it for about 5 minutes to make sure worked ok on my Surround set up (it does) , Looks like could be good fun, can even start it with my Saitek Switch panel, Not as complicated as the A2A COTS,so for me could be a good purchase. Frame rates also seem very good Regards Steve 3080rtx on a i7 12700k with 32 Gig ddr5. 2gig Ssd Quest 2 Windows 11
January 30, 201412 yr Obviously, I am not expecting anything better than the Comet, but what do you think for $8? Their DC6B is not an absolute benchmark of quality or perfection but it's a very, very enjoyable add-on (with great sounds) especially if you're a huge DC-6 fan. it's light years better than their comet, IMHO, which was an instant uninstall for me, With the DC-6, I've added some additional sounds, RXP avionics etc, and it's one of my most used add-ons. It's great for dragging around Alaska, while listening to the Travelling Wilburys. :smile:
January 30, 201412 yr ...while listening to the Travelling Wilburys. Sounds like fun. But the 377 with Accu-sim would really say, "handle me with care..." B) Alan Ampolsk"Ah, Paula, they are firing at me!"-- Saint-Exupery

January 31, 201412 yr Commercial Member I almost caved and bought this yesterday.. but so far I've been holding true to my New Years resolution to fly what I've got. 29 days into the year with no FS purchases is impressive for me! Still not sure whether to be pleased or saddened with my stoic resolve! :lol: Jim Stewart Milviz Person.

January 31, 201412 yr Waiting for the PMDG bird. Will spend the $8 on lunch... Have not been happy with any Just Flight purchases. The Viscount did it for me. FS2002 level virtual cockpit textures...just terrible. So, I've vowed never again.
January 31, 201412 yr The JF BAe 146 at USD 8/EUR 6 was ... neat. (Forget their "FMC" expansion, though.) Their Traffic360, even in a 24h deal, was ... not so neat. What happened to AVSIM
