August 9, 2025Aug 9 I was lukewarm about it when it was very first released but it is already one of the best addons of all time for me now, and it just keeps getting better. 9950X3D - X870E Aorus Master- TUF 5090 OC - 64GB DDR5 - 1500W HXi - Titan 360 RX LCD - 9100 Pro x 2 - LG 45GX950A - HOTAS Warthog with Ava Base

I'm not saying it doesn't fly right, who am I to have an opinion on that? I'll go as far as to say it looks 'interesting' EDIT: I forgot to say I love it. It's absorbing.

Seriously, though, Henri was trying to do so many things that were beyond the materials, engine power and fuel octane of the time. He's one of my aviation heroes, in a way. 😉 22 minutes ago, Ron Attwood said: To be fair, in my humble opinion, the Aerostar doesn't 'look right'.

Yes - it's certainly interesting. From above, it looks like a 'cut and shut' of two completely different aircraft. No doubt it's great to fly, however. 🙂 Surely not everybody was kung fu fighting. https://rationalwiki.org
August 9, 2025Aug 9 Flew her out of San Diego for a VFR flight. Kept the wheels down so the speed was just right. Took in the sights and landed at Miramar. That was cool. Course now I am stuck there. For some reason they will not let me leave. 😁 Ron MSFS 2024 -Too many airplanes to name. Too many airports to name.

Seriously, I'd buy 2024 and start trying things out but I'm afraid my creaky old 8G graphics card would choke. And 2020 is running SO well for me right now, so... Slacker city. Would love to be trying out the Aerostar though (he said, bringing things back on topic)! Being A2A, the early access part doesn't bother me a bit. Scott

August 9, 2025Aug 9 6 hours ago, kevinfirth said: aerostar that equally isn't my thing Fair enough, but the A2A Aerostar 600 is a twin, reasonably fast, and NOT easy to fly (for me anyway) … still can’t seem to land well without the aircraft veering off to the left with a slight cross wind. Gotta manage the engines, can really have fun with range and fuel management. It’s by far the best piston twin I have in my collection and keeps me coming back and interested. The realistic steering was worky, but latest updates 0.9.8, I seem to be having more issues with using realistic steering. But I have zero experience in a real 600 so have no clue, but enjoy learning along the way. Visual modeling is stunningly realistic … perhaps a little too clean for an aircraft of this age. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. - Carl Sagan
