You know that with a few tweaks it can work very well in fsx:se right? The only known issue is IAS Hold doesn't work IIRC. I recently picked this plane up and have been very much enjoying it :smile: Your money isn't wasted...

Rgr, select the aircraft last... I rarely if ever save flights, I tend to keep them to short hops. I'm using a trio of CH products (Fighter Stick, Pro Throttle, Pro Pedals), and I've got a hat mapped to control the prop via the throttle hand thumb which seems to be working well for me. I'm sure that once I get my nose into the manuals properly I'll have a rethink of what controls are essential and maybe change some things around...

Well I've only gone and done it! It installed fine, I had to copy the font as you described to get the FMC to render correctly. I've only had a few hours to tinker, but she's a real beauty Blew up a few engines initially, but I'm getting the hang. Like you said Roy, I need to read the documents carefully. Only slight niggle I've come across is that I've had a few CTD problems, generally when I've been messing about with the FMC. But it could be more down to me asking it to do crazy things that the developers didn't cater for. But so far I'm have a blast with this aircraft, I can see that it's going to get a lot of use...

Thanks, that's very handy to know I reckon I'll pull the trigger then, it's a lovely looking plane, and is just the kind of thing I want.

Thanks Roy, that's very helpful. Can you elaborate on the FMS gauge fix? I've not come across that mentioned in the reading around I've done about this aircraft. The other thing I'd like to know is that when/if PMDG get around to releasing the FSX:SE compatible version will it be a free upgrade to existing customers? I'd be more than a little irked if I purchase this now and then find it's an additional cost in a few months... But of course I'd like to buy this plane right now Thanks for all the input on this.

Ok, so this is an old post, but for information... I recently purchased this aircraft and it's working fine for me in FSX-SE. My guess for the original poster is that it's left over registry keys from a previous FSX boxed install.

Thanks for the info Chris, very helpful. It's a shame that the J41 isn't getting any love these days, it's exactly the plane I'm looking for.

Has this seriously not been resolved yet? I was on the verge of purchasing this product over the Majestic Q400, as I wanted something a bit smaller, but perhaps I should think again I've been searching in vain for an update since the Feb/Mar ones, when they made the statement that it was a couple of days work and in testing. Have we just missed the announcement? Or is it really not supported in FSX:SE yet?
