Yet again, another Payware aircraft for SaVas � Grin

This plane is beautiful inside and out. Fully functional buttons on 2D and VC, great detail, and one helluva realism setting ability (oil changes, top offs, tire wear, engine maintenance, flap maintenance, repairs, warranties, etc - though with an ATI card, when you click the Aroworx icon list after hitting alt, your screen goes black. Just point the mouse to the general area of the Realism �pop-up and move the icon around until you can see it)

I will post more screens of this awesome craft soon, but for now, the exterior - Avoiding a thunderstorm:

The attention to detail on the VC is incredible:

And the interior is also top knotch. You can click the doors to the cockpit to open and close them, and the same with the rear compartment.

At night you can brighten the instrument lights, the cabin lights, etc.

Also comes with a manual that is 109 pages long

I have noticed a couple of small bugs - a couple switches in the on position are actually turning things off, and in the off position turns them on. As mentioned the pop-up for the realism settings or repair fixes requires a bit of finagling, but they are insignificant bugs.

I will tell them on the forum

Also if you purchase, you have to register the purchase before your EFIS guages, and your maintenance/realism settings become functional (I registered last night and it was functioning this morning)

Sound files are just...awesome. I am not a pilot in real life, but the manual has helped me get this bird in the air and flying beautifully. Needless to say I was up until 3am reading it lol.

At $29.95 for the download, its a little pricy, but honestly there was a lot of attention to detail that went into it to make the realism seem as close to flying as possible.

Enjoy

Well that aircraft is like an old Iron lady allright

Much handflying skill is required (that's why yours truly avoids it Grin

)...I think Flight1 (or Dreamfleet) is about to release a new 727 soon, I recall hearing something about it?

Yes, I believe it is Dreamfleet thats about to release one. I saw something about it at Flight 1, but I think the Captainsim aircraft will suffice. I can atleast get it off the ground, just glad I'm not a passenger in it while Im captain of the craft

I have also purchased the Aeroworx King Air. I agree that it is the King of the Air. Grin

I have already done a repaint for it a Avsim, and another on the way. Grin

It is really sad that I have spent more time painting than flying this beautiful bird.... HA Grin
