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.

I've never seen a video of a/c flying supersonic at the Loop? They all fly below the speed of sound at the loop. It's a training ground for low flying isn't it?

Was pleasantly surprised with this addon after the last few.

Wouldn't be the first. There are lots of videos of C130's running the Mach Loop.

Yup, it's only on very rare occasions that anything is allowed to break the sound barrier over the UK. So as you say it's more about low level and speed control, but that does of course mean that supersonic-capable jets with 'burners can probably accelerate faster and get around it quicker, especially in a flight sim where you can do what you like, which is what I was really referring to rather than actually busting the sound barrier over the place in reality.

"The Mach Loop in Wales, is a set of valleys, between Dolgellau, and Machynlleth (from which the Mach Loop gets its name)"

No-one goes supersonic round the Mach loop, it's not a designated supersonic area and anyway it would be suicidal...apart maybe from down the A487 to run out over Tal-y-llyn  ...

I know, I live not too far from it. Been there loads of times.

I was referring to being able to do it in the sim with something which could go supersonic given the concerns about whether that would be possible on the flight model.

Back to the 339 🙂  ... very nice, only concerns for me so far is too much reflectivity / specularity on the instruments and it would be nice if the sight worked, even without weapons.

Would also be nice of the mirrors could be moved/hidden: flying away from a sunrise with Bloom on is blinding. 

This airplane for me is a replacement for my beloved Lotus L39 for FSX that I also installed in P3D v4. I hope that Dino considers the L39 but for me this is as good as it gets for MSFS 2020.

The sun's funny like that. I looked into it one time...Couldn't see for days!

ORBX store version is missing the manual. Sent Dino an e-mail.

Update: Dino sent me a link right away.
