Alphasim Lightning.

Featured Replies

Has anyone purchased this? I like the odd military jet or two to just hand fly for a change from FMCs, procedures etc and note that they have had it tested by a real Lightning pilot (must be as old as me!). Will buy it if the feedback is positive - price looks really reasonable.Kev

Hi Kev,I don't have the Lightning, but I do have a lot of other Alphasim stuff.What you will get for your money from Alphasim is a good, solid, model and fun by the bucketload. What you won't get is a rip-off half model or a fully featured all-buttons-clickable-and-doing-what-they-should cockpit simulation.You'll get what you pay for and, often, a little bit more. You'll only be upset if you are expecting an equivalent of PMDG737 or LDS767 merged with LO:MAC.I'd also recommend checking out their forums (accessible via the sidebar on the site), which have an active following and they aren't scared to admit it and try to help when something isn't quite right.Hope that helps. :-)Cheers,Ian P.

Thanks, Ian.Very reassuring. I'll give it a go!!Kev
