Now that Milviz has the KA350 done, I suspect the Lear 60 might not be that far away, I think they are installing basically the same Proline 21 into the Lear 60 and that was the big hold up for the KA. We'll see!

I mean I sure hope something good comes from all of us who paid $80 to alpha test their “beyond study level” product...

Not true. The Falcon 7X is compatible with the following programs: FSX, FSXSE, P3D v4, P3D v3, P3D v2, P3D v1

There are two versions of it for download when you buy it (I got mine from Just Flight), one of which is for P3D V4 and the other is for all the other sim versions. I actually flew the thing from Manchester to Almeria last night, installed in the most recent version of P3D V4, with no problem whatsoever (apart from the fact that one of the click spots in the VC for zooming out the map is a bit finicky until you get used to it), so I know that it works just fine in the current P3D version.

It's actually a really nice private jet to fly because it has much fancier built in FMC avionics than everything else out there in that private jet class, what with its complex FMC, big glass gauges and its HGS etc (so there's loads of screens to play with when you are en-route), although these do take a toll on frame rates, so you need a fairly decent PC to run it. You can of course faff about with the FMC and update its Navigraph stuff etc if you want to, but it will fire a P3D or FSX flight plan straight into its FMC for you too if you want to do things that way, so it's a doddle to set it up, which is why I like it because it is great for Air Hauler because of that capability whereby Air Hauler cranks up a flight with a direct-to route already in the flight plan, which you can then start putting SIDs and STARs onto if you like.

As I say, it has its critics, but for 20 quid it is quite nice if you like private jets, and there aren't many three-holers these days either, so it's fun to have one of those in your virtual hangar, because you'll probably never fly a real one given that they are massively expensive in real life (60 Million Dollars).

Hi Alan,

Were you successful in making it fly in P3D v5?

Thanks

Since I bought it from The FlightSim Store which went down, I don't have the installation file for it any long (it might be on my laptop, but I haven't checked). I think I can email the dev to get a new file, but I'd need the order details, which is going to be tricky since that info is probably somewhere, but lord knows where.

I was thinking of buying it on release date, figuring it was close to bug free, had an extensive manual, etc. I'm glad I didn't, and on top of that they still haven't released a functioning SP1. So sad.

That said, it would be great to have a GA plan (jet or prop) with modern avionics like the G3000 or the G1000nxi.
