The cockpit looks fine? The screenshots on the marketplace give some better views.

Lots of closeup shots of the outside of the plane, not one closeup shot of the panel. Can you read any of the gauges on the pilot's panel? I can't. Maybe it's just my eyes.

In any case, it's probably worth the $10 for some, but I'm not going to buy something when I can't "see" what I'm getting.

They wouldn't release an aircraft where you can't read the gauges lol.
The video is also 4k, if you're not using a 4k screen it will probably squish it.

Anyways here's 2 screenshots of the panel from the marketplace.

Is this an Asobo/Microsoft production or did someone make it for them? If so who?

There is one close up shot of the panel in the video. Playing the vid @ 4k you can see more of the details. Not bad textures, not as good as Carenado but better than most of the default aircraft.

The cockpit does look unattractive. But I suspect that's exactly how it looks in real life as well.

Oh oh, yeah it was produced in both Japan and the US. If you had the money it was an incredible plane because of it's speed and no need to have a type rating, at least in the U.S. They were pretty popular with the crowd that could afford them.

not needing a type rating did turn out to be a bit of a.... mistake.

(The Mu-2 is a bit of handful and somewhat idiosyncratic so pilots coming straight off a twin engine conversion course into one would get into trouble, do what they'd been taught on the course and discover the hard way the Mu-2 doesn't work that way)

It's probably direct photo-scans of somebodies plane, and here we are saying how horrible it is..... 🙃

Is it just me or are MSFS clouds starting to look more......solid?

 

Never mind, he's using a preset apparently

I can't tell from the screenshots and the SU14 beta has screwed up my attempt to buy the plane but does it feature an autopiliot (single pilot operations of the Mu-2 in the US require a working AP as part of the changes brought in to reduce the accident rate)
