I'm not seeing that myself - I see Simmarket Prices in € with 20% VAT and it's €33.48 there and OrbX are listing a € estimated price as €33.47

I've sent off a quick tweet to Just Flight to see if they will be sellling it as well

Ah sorry, I didn't realise you could also buy direct from Airplane Heaven - looks to avoid the VAT ?

Always buy Direct if you can, that way you normaly get any updates first. Also the makers get more $...

I would buy from orbx but £5 is £5...🙂

I might wait to see whether JF do it as their £ prices can sometimes be weirdly low and they also have the cashback scheme.
But failing that going direct definitely seem the best option 🙂

Edit - JF will be selling it but may not have it up till next week.

I will probably grab the Orbx version for ease of updates.  Orbx Central is pretty flawless for me with updating everything.

Meanwhile the main complaint on main forums seems to be lack of videos on the home page 😄

Speaking of videos - that English VR guy does have a review of sorts:

Thanks Glenn for linking that. I hope/sure the missing sounds will be now added.

SOLD!

Question?

Am I right in thinking that the MKI needs hand pumping to lower and raise the landing gear?

Edited September 15, 20214 yr by Nyxx

Details I'll be after ...

Temperature rise with flaps lowered and during longish ground rolls in non-cold days, pitch down with flaps down, that traditional elevator down ( leading hinge seen up looking over the tail ) at cruise trim settings, heaviness of roll with "q" opposed to the very light elevator forces throughout the typical range of speeds, etc...

Have they been able to overcome there being actually no free-castoring tailwheels modeled in MFS ?  What about braking - being asymmetric, with application of the stick lever + rudder ?

Just now!

EDIT; Removed vid, it was so bad. I Dispair at how bad some people are. Do they ever read a manual!!! Rank over.

Old but a good place to start with this.

Is this the 3rd Spitfire for MSFS so far? 

I don't own any of them, which one would be the best?

The FI MarkIX is now very good a lot better than at release.

We need a lot more feed back on this MKI to answer your question. I will proberly buy this tonight.

Thank you, nr. 2 and 3 is probably this one because I saw the previews / teaser on youtube a few months ago. 

Looking forward to seeing some testing.

Excellent, I was holding off on buying a spitfire until this one was released so I could read some comparisons from those who buy both.

I will do my best to look and test all you ask.🙂

I already have the Flying Iron one, and will buy this one as well.  I suppose I am lucky I can afford it, but also, they will be different enough between the mk1a and the mk11. 
I consider the mk1a to be the classic spitfire really.  The mk11 I almost consider as a separate aircraft!    

It is good to compare the changes and how the aircraft developed over the years as well, so I don't have a problem with getting different versions if they are fairly accurate.
Key to me will be the sounds.  The Flying Iron still seemed to have a bit of a step in the sound on throttle up last time I tried it.

Well ... just buy the c140 and Spitfire and that will encourage them to get moving on the bigger long term projects 😄

I'm sure they don't my encouragement.  A lot of sim pilots are ready to encourage them with $$.
