I thought that topic is about FSLabs Concorde 😒, i start to believe that this one is vaporware...

It works great in FSX and P3D v3 32 bit. too bad they are neglecting the 64 bit version. What is going on there?

If you own the FSX/P3D Concorde from DC Designs then you should know what to expect.

DC has always been pretty blunt about the quality and "study levelishness"🤣of their upcoming Concorde.

It will look and feel better than the FSX/P3D version I'm sure!

For those that don't know anything about DC Designs, does this mean high quality or low quality systems?

At this point itss all about money and not how the Aircraft is actually simulated. Thats a fact. sorry to be blunt. From what I understand that this product is not a True Concorde simulation and I would except the fact to be proven wrong.

Do you mean that if you don’t release full study level aircraft you should rather leave it alone?

Nope It does not have to be "Study Level" but at least fly like a Concorde in the defunct would and not like 2022 fantasy world.

After reading about it on Just Flight webpage I get the impression that much is simulated. In what way should the Fslabs FSX version simulate more ?

Sadly, already here I see lots of comments from folks who don't know what they're talking about and didn't bother to do any kind of research before posting.

Much has already been discussed here at Avsim:

https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/614203-dc-designs-just-dropped-a-new-concorde-teaser-trailer/

Usually, I don't build super-complex airplanes as I like my products to be for everybody, not just a few purists who turn their noses up at anything considered not a "true" rendition of a particular airplane. However, in Concorde the entire flight-deck is functional, with the overall airplane being 90% or so functional compared to reality. It is, by far, the most complex airplane I have built and by no means easy to operate ( although there is support in the form of automation to ease the pilot workload ). Compared to the version I built for FSX and Prepar3D, which was very much a Concorde "lite", this is probably at least four times more complex, with the capacity to become 100% functional should users wish it to be ( most won't ).

The price is set to be affordable to all, rather than to reflect the complexity of this airplane.

Great post and insult the users in the first sentence you posted. Nice developer reaction to the users to live in their own ego and not listen to the users" I would elaborate but I would probably get banned from this site. Next time so better.

I have actually read the topic that was linked by the dev, and he has been very open in explaining the level of detail that is simulated, and why an INS is currently out of reach. So you drawing conclusions from previous work without reading that topic is a bit more insulting than the dev setting you straight.

So what are you saying after the jibberish.you are talking about Are we getting INS or not. If not its not A Concorde God bless DC Designs for going for the money in MSFS that would not happen in P3D and XPlane where the more serious simmers are at thins moment.

If you'd read the post I linked to, you'd already know. Proves my point really.

Thank you sir for your post but who is to blame, You or MS or Asobo. lets get facts.

What facts that there have never been offerings in P3D that were not complete simulations of the real plane?  AKA previously known as "lite" releases?  

Cough Cough CS, Feelthere, Aerosoft and numerous others that have put out releases that were never 1:1 replicas of their real life counterparts.  

What facts and blame are you on about?

Funny thing is if you are talking about "realistic" operation of the Concorde then it should be released as a Museum simulator.  The only place the Concorde resides today is in a museum so there you go.  Just using it means you are doing something unrealistic.  Now stop and think, what would the Concorde cockpit look like today...  Hmmmm  Let's go and look at the classics still flying today and try to find one that does not have a GPS in it... You see in 2022 it's unrealistic to even think about flying without GPS.  So my guess is a Concorde flying today would have found SOME way to implement GPS and used it ASAP  in order to alleviate crew load...  

I flew in a B-24 and B-17, both had a big Garmin mounted right up front.  I doubt the Concorde (parked in museums) would be taking to the sky without some sort of glass cockpit and GPS upgrade anyway.

If I am decoding your gibberish right, you are basically saying that you can't be bothered to do the slightest bit of reading and research, but are insulted if that fact is pointed out to you. I am sure you are having a great time in your daily life as well with that attitude. Good luck!
