January 29, 201610 yr I need to blast off to space. LOL I'm looking for a military jet, preferably payware or free, doesn't matter that would allow me to climb really high, like above 70k msl, etc or even higher. anything out there like that? I don't need the guns/radar stuff so much .. I just want to take off and head for the stars and to see all my great scenery from really high up. Ciao!
January 29, 201610 yr Well, since you "don't need the guns/radar stuff so much", there's always the SR-71 (alphasim_sr71_free.zip) right here in the file library. It's a "a complete aircraft re-package of the Alphasim SR-71 freeware version." John Martin

January 29, 201610 yr Moderator There's also a Freeware X-15 over @ the Other place, including the Update for FSX. Alan :smile:
January 30, 201610 yr I agree with Slayer - the X-15 from xtreme is a rare package - fun, very high quality visuals and effects, very educational if you want to do everything manually with very comprehensive systems, very fast to whatever altitude you want for sight-seeing. Milviz will eventually come out with the best extreme performance high altitude flyer - and by a large margin - their SR-71. That will be a while I think though...
January 31, 201610 yr You have just described the USAF X-15 program. No guns, no radar, fly into space over and over again using the absolutely latest add on technology for FSX and P3D. A very knowledgeable support team also. Checkout the Avsim review of the newest X-15 from Xtremeprototypes. It just doesn't get any better than this one. The VC and systems depth is out of this world. Manual is even better. http://www.avsim.com/index.php/_/reviews/aircraft/review-x-15a-2-special-edition-for-fsx-and-p3d-r3071 Regards, Ray When Pigs Fly . Ray Marshall .
