P3D v4 & the JS-41

Flight simulation is different for everyone. We all need to respect that, whether we are "Autopilot & FMC specialists", "VOR navigation experts", or "low level scenery viewers" :wink:

Totally agree with your comments.

... as do I... this hobby is supposed to be educational AND WHAT WE DO TO RELAX AND GET AWAY FROM THE SALT MINES... there is room enough for each type of flyer.

I've been saving my $'s in anticipation of the Prepar3D version of my beloved J41. Been missing it since leaving FSX a few years ago. Release day purchase for sure. Ready to pay for it, again. 

Cheers.

There are loads of people that think flying is . . . Programme your FMC, line up, throttles full forward, past v2 and engage N1 & N2.

That's EXACTLY what flying is for most airline pilots in the real world.

Here is something I am happy to show.... the J-41 allows for PMDG aircraft to happily fit in at many Orbx fields.  This is a combination that used to be much tougher.  With this commuter aircraft, especially when she's lightly loaded (shall we say, in an executive role), many heretofore inaccessible Orbx destinations can now be comfortably visited.  A brilliant combo... and one that many strictly GA flyers may now want to explore...

Thank you all testers for the valuable screenshots, videos and info. I would agree that just getting this bird so that it is native supported in P3Dv4+ would be goal one for those like me who love having a proper commuter option that keeps the pilot honest in many areas of engine management among many other things.  With the added help of FS2Crew this plane has always been a true pleasure to fly and has been sadly missed in P3D speaking for myself.

I will go on record about being unhappy that we will loose the old FMC only for the fact that that is a testament to how well PMDG made it and opened up many users to a completely different way to program a one of a kind FMC not seen in any other addon (that I know of). I own the GTN Complete and rely heavily on it in VR in FlyInside as a pop up window to easy access the radios for direct tuning and charts etc. So its more a side step than anything to me.

The one wish list item that I would like to make is to create a 2D pop up window for the handy VSpeed chart. I love the animation but it has always been a feature that one has to zoom in on to actually use. I have the print out version but since going to VR I really dont use it anymore and "cheat" by having my FO of FS2Crew take care of it for me during taxi and his flows. However, it would be nice to have a 2d window for that.

I hope the success of this addon will not only appease the very strong followers of this plane who do not want to leave it behind as we move onto better, more powerful and more stable platforms like P3D, but also gives indication that later small features could included.

I have mentioned this before, but.....will we not get the green "P3D" bar at the top of the tailfin on this aircraft? I rather like that on the NGX.

And the FMS in the Q400 (Majestic) isn't far from it either!

Sorry Chris, I ignored the first query unintentionally.... I would hazard a guess the next update will have a green bar... nice to know it is important to some...

With the recent Denver v2 release I thought I ought to test out of there.... and a flight into Cedar City seemed a good choice.... so here we are just beginning descent into KCDC (an Orbx FREEWARE GEM).
