Will it have raindrops on the windshield?

As suspected...it does!  And they move properly.

I just bought it and flew it on a short flight.   So far I like it.  A first of its kind for this sim.  Seems to be a bit twitchy on the ground but then that may lessen with experience.  It has enough performance for me.  Cloud surfing is very fun.

Remember if you are tuning a VOR, make sure the switch in the cockpit is set to VOR (by default it seems to be set to TACAN).

It’s released!

Now available at Simmarket but should be also coming to the Marketplace.

And bought....

For those interested, a video link which I found that does a nice overview of the aircraft.

Bit ironic to take a subsonic jet around the Mach Loop, but it's a nice video review all the same. Looks like a pretty decent add-on.

24 Euro...  I thought this was going to be a 'light' version at about 15 Euro according to the early press releases (or more likely speculation now by the looks of it).

20 Euro (US) Maybe Dino needs to cover expenses for listing etc.

This guy has been giving away airplanes for years. It's time for me to show some appreciation.

The light version comes without air or wheel brakes.  Full version worth the price. 😁

? not true!

Should this be a joke?

I haven't seen the review video above but so far I can say this:

• Speed brake works (although I need to figure out how to set my FSUIPC correctly, has a mind of its own at the moment).
• Wheel brakes work.
• Pitch sensitivity not great (again, could be my setup, but feels more like the Carenado C182 that the Asobo C172 in terms of smoothness).
• Both taxi light and landing lights cast lights, but the lights themselves do not illuminate. 
• Sound package not great.
• Beautifully textured.
• No instrumentation in backseat.

Has to be said: haven't spent very much time with it yet, hope I can figure out the pitch sensitivity.

Quite obviously it is a joke. I added a smiley face to make it more evident.

Bought it, will try out as soon as I get some time on the sim.

I love seeing all the new content for FS2020. 

Support all developers...

[sd_flyer 6,043]

I got it as well. Briefly talked to developer. Seems like SDK preventing him to expand MD-339 significantly. So enhancements is up in the air or (in hands of Asobo).

Comes with a 65 page manual, and a repaint kit, and the raindrops do indeed work.

Woot.

They need to sell at the same price it will eventually go on the marketplace for so potentially the MS 30% cut is effecting the pricing,
