Posting here in P3D forum because there's not much time and it's too easy to miss a sale post in the Bargain Hunters forum.

If you're looking at enhancing your P3D install with A2A's widely acclaimed products now is the time to do so.

A sale of A2A products is rarely held and you cannot go wrong with A2A aircraft, don't miss the opportunity 😁

Fantastic and challenging aircraft not available on other platforms.

Also don't forget A2A's Accu-Feel that sits in the background and improves all your P3D aircraft (and is fully configurable on a per-aircraft basis).

Cheers

And many more... 😀

Cheers again

I treated myself to the Stratocruiser. Meant I had to reinstall FXS Steam just for this one aircraft but have been having fun with this amazing COS addon pushing towards two decades olds. It’s all about the fun and that’s what A2A delivers on any platform.

I love retro aircraft.

Can vouch for A2A in Prepar3D!

I have the Civilian Mustang (definitely 1 of 3 reasons I still have Prepar3D installed 🙂 ), Bonanza, Superfortress, and Spitfire (oh, and the $0/FREE P-40 Warhawk!).

Seriously considering the T-6A or 182 (or 172). Just not quite sure...

Anyone care to share a 2025 opinion on them...?

I've all of those aircraft and the C182 is my fav of the three, so much so that I swapped out the cockpit panel for a custom dark grey one and added oxygen so I can get it up to altitude without hypoxia killing me.

Like all A2A's aircraft it's challenging overall and must be maintained, a plus is it's engine is quite powerful making for very nice flying, great for all round flying.

The T-6A and C172 are also both good, but I prefer the C182 - it's more powerful, has a good engine throb and takes passengers with luggage pretty much anywhere.

I have also ran it into the ground maintenance wise just to see how it would go, I've had brakes & tyres fail on landing, flaps failure during descent (an upside down crash is typical at such a point), engine failure mid flight - but not just engine cutout, more like loosing a cylinder or two and thus struggling to keep the plane in the air while looking for the nearest airport.

C182 Flap failure (LHS should be up).

Maintenance page for flap failure, note the custom dark grey cockpit panel.

Engine failing mid flight - lots of smoke and I could barely keep the engine running, did land safely though.

Oxygen gauge in use, I ran the bottle out and it cannot be filled till you land.

Really though, all A2A's aircraft are pretty great and offer different flying experiences for the different aircraft.

Cheers

Will be getting the Connie again (own it fsx) later this week. Will be perfect for flying lowish and slow around my TrueEarth sceneries in the UK and West Coast usa. 

Sometimes you have to kick back and relax, let the world speed by as you enjoy the slower pace. The t6 and p51 are sublime in p3d. It's tempting to buy them all just in case a2a do a pmdg and move to FS2024 only 😶. 

.. Which they have future development wise but kudos for them allowing us to choose their wonderful planes for our sim of choice at least for now.

I'm tempted by the Comanche FSX+P3D bundle. I already have it in MSFS (for the majority of my GA missions), while I have the P-40 for FSX and P3D, and the C182 for just P3D. I want a fast single-engine plane to replace the default P3D Mooney (or the ancient Carenado M20J in FSX).

The title is not correct. The sale obviously also includes the Comanche for MSFS 2020/2024.

The Bonanza is faster than the Comanche. Also the addon itself is newer and has a couple more features (instrument variability, etc). 
 

if you really want fast, then you REALLY want the Civilian Mustang. GPS and radios and the lot…

I was just gonna say that myself.....300kts at sea level very easy to do if you're not paying attention!

I have it in FSX and then again P3d. Gonna have to do this tour again in p3dv5, FSX is looking ancient now!

Oh yeah, I love the Comanche, although I do favour the C182 (either are good really).

Here's a short vid of myself stalling, failing to recover and crashing the Comanche...

Hi Flyfox, this is the P3D forum after all 😉

I anycase A2A have around 51 items on sale, of which a big fat "1" is for MSFS.

FSX actually has the most items, being ~24 followed by P3D with 14.

A2A talked a big talk about improving their accu-sim development workflow for faster development time, however they've really only released one completed aircraft (which is sort of compatible with 2024) and their Aerostar is an early access 2024 only release, not quite prime time as yet and also not included in their sale.

I wonder what they've been doing for the past 5 years ?

Maybe they've lost people, or their commercial development contracts are consuming all their resources?

While they are certainly a great and quality dev crew, at their current rate of release they'll never have an equivalent catalogue anywhere near their previous sims, which in turn has to affect their business income since they have little to sell.

Only the future will tell the tale 🤔

Cheers

Strong winds, and gusts, low speed, quick rudder inputs, distracted pilot... What could go wrong lol?? 🤔😉😁. I think we've all been there 🙃

Yes...🙂 this one...

Also quite high on the hard to fly scale and includes accurately simulating the ~10,000 ft stall recovery altitude requirement of the real Mustang.

Couldn't agree more in any way. They didn't take 4 years to make the Aerostar for sure. Thankful for their past glories, I don't expect them contributing much to the home sim market again sadly.

Oh it's very easy to FLY... Just don't get over confident when near the ground during take offs and landings! 🙃. 

Sooo easy to stall at low (under 130kts) speeds when turning into final.
