I agree with Alan that Just Flight go out of their way to help their customers, whether that is with discounts for upgrades from existing planes, or just acting on customer feedback with respect to adjustments or additional variants. It does them credit, and I am looking forward to seeing Martyn and the rest of the guys again at Cosford 2017 in October!

I'll echo that. Their interaction with customers is par excellence.

Thanks for the great feedback thus far.  It sounds like it may be added to my hangar.

Not to put you off the Just Flight Arrow, or even their Trinidad and Tobago add-on which is equally impressive, you should be aware that currently, A2A have a 25 percent discount sale on right across their entire product range, which means their GA aeroplanes with Accusim are at the moment very similarly priced to those Just Flight GA aeroplanes, i.e. round about 25-30 quid, so if it is a toss-up between one from A2A or one from JF, then you could always defer getting the JF aeroplane until later and get an A2A one at a reduced price.

On the other side of the coin of course, buying from Just Flight gets you on board with their loyalty bonus scheme, which is very cool in that each purchase gives you about £2.50's worth of discount points, which you can then either use or save up and collect; after a while if you buy a few things from them, you end up with quite a lot of points, and can end up getting stuff for free, especially if you catch one of their sales which they have fairly regularly.

Which is how I picked up their ubiquitous L049 Constellation at $45.

I would pick the A2A Cherokee. It is one of the best aircraft in my Prepar3d hanger. I logged quite a few hours flying actual Piper Warriors, but I would still go with the A2A Cherokee. Its flight modeling is in a league with the best payware products on the market.

Where I find the flight dynamics better is when you get into the fringes of the flight envelope.  For example the A2A can stall at high speeds such as during a steep turn or pulling out too suddenly from a dive. Very few developers get this type of behavior at the fringe of the flight envelope correct and these are the areas where a real world pilot can also get into trouble. 

Agreed. Probably my fave of all my GA aircraft.

Just bought the Warrior, taking advantage of the discount from my Arrow purchase. Although owning also the A2A PA180, and besides the similarity with the Arrow, I couldn't hesitate. Justflight has done an excellent job with the PA28 series. The modeling is just perfect, couldn't get closer, just beautiful to look at and fly. Their support is top, hearing the customer. I applause their discount policy and determination to quality.

What GPS units will arrive to v4 first, Flight1 GTN or RXP GTN/GNS?

Just a shot of the panel for anyone asking.....

I love it! Great start guys, just a bit of tweaking please!

Awesome job of matching the viewpoint!

[Martyn JF 388]

Great pics and I'm pleased to see everyone enjoying the aircraft. 

We are currently working with a couple more current RW Warrior pilots to perfect the FDE as much as possible.

Thanks

Great news Martyn as I can definitely confirm on the Warrior II when going for 2 stages of flaps on base leg she wants to pitch up! forward pressure on the yoke is very important at that point in fact its one of the main things the instructors teach and help you correct.

 

Looking forward to purchasing when you have improved the FDE.

 

Kind regards

I won't say that it didn't take an unhealthily obsessive amount of time...😐

Applying two stages of flap in RW makes it want to balloon up and you have to push forward quite hard to keep it level, and then trim.

Applying the flaps also makes the nose drop, so you do get a better forward view. In the sim that can give the impression of pitching down if you see what I mean.

I haven't bought this one yet, but had quite a lot of fun with old JF version.

[tutmeister 712]

Peter, I agree, once the flaps are down you will have a more nose down attitude but this is different. As soon as you move the flap lever it pitches down without any ballooning at all no matter what airspeed as if it was an early model pa28. You can see this correctly modelled in a2a's Cherokee or vflyteair's Cherokee range in xplane. With a bit of tweaking this can be right up there.

Just did my first VFR in it from my local.

Not the best but learning all the time.

First attempt at a repaint as well.
