....the best flight sim addon ever!!! yey!!..............not.

i cant beleive what i got when i used these aircraft,

btw here are the planes included the game,
boeing 757-200 British airways
ATR72
Beechcraft1900D
crj900
BAe 146

Anyway,.....the 757 model was not what you expected for payware, in other words project opensky are 10x's better and there FREE! the panel, i found, was on avsim,flightsim and fsdome available for freeware and the sounds were also available as freeware.The VC did not have any textures whatsoever and was just like you would see it in the GMAX program. The atr72 was available as freeware also from avsim as one whole package (VC,panel,sounds,etc...). The beechcraft1900d was suprisingly ok but not brilliant. the crj model was terrible with the passenger windows being to big and the cockpit windows to high and weird looking. the panel was not bad but the VC was quite ohnastly crap. the sounds didnt even resemble a crj. lastly the bae146 model was ok, but ,suspicously looked like a freeware version i had. the panel was horrible and the gauges were scattered everywere, the vc with missing textures and no gauges showing was also quite annoying.

the worst thing is that i paid money for this! well of course i took it back and got a full refund! but im just amazed at how bad a payware product can get and the company to think it is acceptable!

oh my abacus, when will you ever learn..............

(check out the flight simulator guide to see how bad the products can be if you dont know what i mean, look at there dc-10)

Grin Grin Yeah the slogan for that package is "Staying Profitable on the Short Routes" it should be "Staying Profitable Using Shortcuts" Sorry to hear you spent money on this product, personally I never been to impressed with Abacus.
