August 5, 200817 yr >I was referencing the Finnair E170 data page which list the>runway requirements at 1500 meters. :)Lol, what came out of it was just:>You are aware the 4900 foot runway for EGLC is below the minimum>length for take off for that aircraft? Anyway, I'll state my opinion that your fine mini-review is a little too radiant to the actual state of this promissing release. Post-sale efforts of the devs can make the real difference only. I read FT had not the best track record in this. In my opinion Autopilot (or FDE?) was always the weaker part of FT past releases (I'm not talking about Airbus though, which is quite different overall). To me this E-Jets package needs dev's serious efforts in autopilot yet. But I'll wait patiently, this package has real potential this time. These are my thoughts reading your review.
August 7, 200817 yr Guys, version 1.2 is out and autopilot seems to work much better here. I'm flying E-170 both in FS9 and FSX and enjoying it more and more. In this light Bob's mini-review I understand now was quite shrewd. And the developer(s) is back from vacation. Good job. :)Dirk.
