May 28, 20215 yr It is still only 8.00 am in London. OR ... they could be going on Redmond/Microsoft Time (Pacific Daylight Time) in which case it is not even the 28/5 there yet. If people are that desperate to get the Turbo Arrow the instant it is released I suspect the Just Flight site might crash 😄 Edited May 28, 20215 yr by Glenn Fitzpatrick
May 28, 20215 yr It's currently 08.40 in the UK, JF probably start work at 9.00, then faff about a bit getting stuff sorted, so call that 10 ish to allow time for a bacon sandwich, then they must make sure the hamster and its wheel which power the download server is all fed/lubricated. Then of course it's necessary to stop again for another cup of tea (in the UK, this is the law, otherwise the tea police come and arrest you) so by then it'll be about lunchtime and that's when I reckon it'll be available, i.e. about maybe three hours from the time of this post is my guess.

Nice collection, have not picked up a guitar in years. I have a '72 Tele Deluxe (twin humbuckers, maple neck with no fretboard) stashed away in a cupboard somewhere (bought it new in '74) I should dust it off and see if it still plays, it must be coming up to being 50 years old shortly. It’s OK to talk about guitars as long as you mention planes. I don’t have a Flying V for example but my Epiphone uptown Kat has JB Mini Humbuckers as per the Firebird. I have 5 other guitars, 2 Eastman semis, Fender Strat Deluxe Plus, and a Sadowsky bass. In play them in turn every between flights when I can. PS JF Turbo is a no brainer. 66%!

I have heard the song of course ...
May 28, 20215 yr Spent the last few week convincing myself i dont need this.. the non turbo arrow is just fine. The moment it's released.... you know the rest 😄 Still, with the 66% discount and 200ish points on my account to use it cost me £8. I can live with that 🙂

May 28, 20215 yr I like the Arrow IV - definitely feels like it has less elevator authority on take off but she's still as fun to fly. Might be a tad faster - getting 140KIAS at 3000ft with fuel flow at top of 75% bar ?

May 28, 20215 yr Well, i dont know if this is new to the Turbo Arrow or if the standard Arrow already had this in a recent update (not flown it for a while)... no stupid logbook popping up half way through shutdown! Well played Just Flight 🙂 Feels good so far. definitely slightly faster at low altitude.. yet to take it up to 10000+
