L-39 Questions and Thoughts??

Featured Replies

How do those of you who have purchased this plane like it?

Does anybody know if we’ll be able to install community repaints for this plane if we buy only one repaint of this plane vs. the entire package?

I remember loving this plane in FSX early P3D it seems like an almost-accesible private jet, I know I’ve seen private examples Scream over our house here in Wisconsin and back when the wonderful Manitowoc Air Show was still held I remember a whole bunch of these softly breaking formation and coming in to land one by one...wonderful.

Thanks,

Steve 

I believe @kiwikat bought the L39...

I think if you lower your expectations enough it's enjoyable.

It's not remotely close to the Lotus L39 - wow what an incredible addon!

I have both Lotus and Reno L-39. Sure Reno L-39 is not quality payware of Lotus level but still not bad

If there is an option to buy a “Pipsqueak” single plane I think I’ll do that and hope the independent painters start launching skins on flightsim.to.

It IS a nice looking jet.

 

Does anyone know which versions have glass and which have steam guages? I bought a single (not the pack), the '69 - US Navy' livery, and to my dismay, it has glass instrumentation. All the promotional photos I saw showed analog instruments. Kind of annoyed, I was expecting analog.

There are glass, mix and pure steam. Frankly I can't remember which one is which! I only know for sure one goes by the name Albatros is steam!

One or two of the screenshots in the Marketplace should show the cockpit for each plane.

Ah I see it

It shows a Glass Cockpit for me in the store page

Apparently I don't know how to navigate the store because I went back again after I purchased and I never saw that pic.

 

EDIT: The pics have been updated since I purchased. All the jets had the same five generic pics. Now they've been customized. Buggers! LOL!
