September 21, 201510 yr Commercial Member Why the secrecy? I'm pretty sure he's referring to a user by the name of FS-Tester over at FSDeveloper (which is a public forum) who is converting the Beechcraft Baron from FSX to Flight. http://www.fsdeveloper.com/forum/threads/conversion-questions-using-the-flight-toolkit.434521/ Some screenshots and info can be found throughout the thread linked above.

September 22, 201510 yr Converting the message to ASCII gives "Aircraft - with some working panels" Brandon is right - if you had been following FSDeveloper, you would have already known. I couldn't give it all away since I don't know if the aircraft will actually enter the BETA Stage... Kavinda J.D ^_^

May 30, 201610 yr Author So DTG's Flight School prompted me to return to MS Flight once again, as happens from time to time. (Sadly very infrequently, but yesterday's flight gave me renewed enthusiasm for Flight.) This post is purely for nostalgia, reminiscence and ongoing interest/passion for MS Flight; this is not comparative or intended to be incendiary.OK, off-beat opening aside, here's a brief travel diary of my 90 minutes of absolute Flight joy:Initially I loaded Flight with the modified splash screen, complete with the beta music - it sets the scene nicely, so I think it's worth mentioning!First I flew a $100 hamburger run from Waikoloa (I think?) to Waimea, a mere 20nm cross-country flight (more like a hop, skip and a jump really). I did take screenshots; however, the nasty pop-up messages spoiled them, so I've omitted them. Is there a way to remove them? Even with the HUD disabled, they are an irritating reminder that I can skip to waypoint (why?! This is Hawai'i after all!), not to fly too close to the sun or not to do anything silly, haha! I exaggerate.Anyway, so then I flew (free-flying) from Waimea to Upolu, an airport at the north-eastern tip of the Big Island. Weather was set to the beautifully-rendered mixed fair weather addon. Naturally, I did the right thing - I flew not in a dull straight line from point to point, but rather by swooping over, into and out of the Waipio Valley.Pictures can say a thousand words, so I'll leave you with what's left from my ocular orgasm. Questions, comments and postcard requests welcome! (Apologies if they're big; they're only .jpeg images, but people requested high-resolutions in the past.)
May 31, 201610 yr Excellent views, and I share exactly the same feel jarsky...

May 31, 201610 yr Author Indeed. Forget Utterly Butterly (I still can't believe it's not butter); I still can't believe it's 32-bit!(Oh and you might need to adjust your screen settings to see the true colours; I adjust to a preset monitor setting - I don't think you can adjust the gamma in MS Flight.)
June 2, 201610 yr Author Apologies to double-post; I cannot edit my previous response.So for those of you who are still interested, and still roam the [lonely] skies of Flight, here is a brief continuation of my journey around Hawai'i's 'Big Island'.I departed Upolu and flew along the south-western edge of Kohala. According to Google Maps, there is a 'Costal Grille' right up there in the mountain - seems an unlikely place for a coastal restaurant, no? But hey, what do I know?! I arrived at Waimea about 25 minutes later. I tried this flight previously with 16kt cross-winds and it was bumpy to say the least! Elevation detail and waves really make coastal flights marvelous! Turning to base leg for Waimea, admiring the view. Parked at Waimea; a perfect opportunity to admire the A5's beautiful design (real-world and Flight counterpart). Next I flew westwards to Puu Waa Waa Ranch, nestled at the foot of the Cinder Cone State Park. This next screenshot has an airline-esque perspective. If the A5 had a built-in dashboard cam, then this would surely offer an excellent perspective on things ahead and below. I landed safely at Puu Waa Waa Ranch after an initial go-around; Flight's weather engine really does offer a challenge, with sudden shifts in wind and gusts keeping boredom at bay! Fifty minutes well-spent. Oh and by the way, a recent program on PBS about Hawai'i sparked my renewed interest in Hawai'i (and subsequently Flight).
