July 27Jul 27 Can you imagine the conversation between Nick and Boris (Audio Works):- BORIS: "Sure, I can build a set of sounds for the Commander 114".NICK: "Awesome, for the engine, I need the core engine sounds, with dedicated recordings in intervals of 50rpms .... don't want no phasing! Then for the props I want a set of slap sounds and chop sounds, again per 50rpms. Oh and for the engine, there are 58 different rough running effects - that each need dedicated source sounds per .... ahh, let's go easy and say every 100rpms for those (so just about 29 of each). Oh did I mention the new nosewheel shimmy sounds? They are different per the constituent angle of the nosewheel on touchdown, across a range of 60 degrees. And the pitch will need to change according to speed ..... oh and....."BORIS: 😨Joking apart, Boris deserves some serious appreciation for matching Nick's chronic innovation with sound sets that must take 100s of hours to put together! 😎 Bill 😎FS2024 • Currently enjoying : A2A Legacy, Comanche 2024 & Aerostar • Black Square Commander 114, Bonanzas, Barons, C208, TBM850, Dukes • COWS DA40 & DA42 • FSW Legacy, C24R Sierra • Got Friends A32 Vixxen • ISW Evektor EV-97 • FSReborn Sirius TL3000 • Flying Fries Gabriel 160TR • Flyboy Rans S6S • Skyward DA50RG • SWS Zenith CH701, RV-8, RV-10, RV-14 • BRdesign Thorp T-211, AA5 Grumman Tiger • Bagolu C172M & ICP Savannah Currently flying IRL: Evektor EV-97 EuroStar, Pipersport SportCruiser, Aeroprakt A32 Vixxen, Bristell Classic, TL Sirius TL-3000, Rans S6LSTrackIR • BeyondATC • PMS GTN Payware • RealTurb • Axis & Ohs9800X3D • RTX 3080 • 64GB DDR5-6000Former PPL IR, grounded by diabetes.

July 29Jul 29 I was just admiring the many (real) Commander listings on the “Trade-a-Plane” site and looking at the various liveries and options.Boy these little beasties look WIDE - it looks like they threw a couple of love seat couches in the front and back?Even if it’s simulated and I’m really still sitting on my inflatable ball my wife got me to do “tummy exercises” that I instead use for flight simming, that wide seating feels (virtually) better than many cockpits, like comparing my wife’s Honda Civic to my relative boat of an Accord.

July 29Jul 29 Purchased and installing now. Woohoo! Will be a bit before I fly as I always like to get my controls set up first, and with Black Square planes that usually means some time in the manual deciphering Lvars. That's OK - it's part of the fun of a new aircraft!Scott

July 29Jul 29 One quick circuit in the standard 114 and hand flying feels so right.This must be in my top 10 aircraft even though I'm no fan of old electronics.Now to sort out my hardware ; getting the autopilot to work should be fun.
