Every system that could be modeled in FSX (nav, radar, terrain, engine, etc...) has been modeled, and the switches that control it work as they would in real life. So, almost all of them. Wink

I beg to differ.

...but to be honest, now that I have gotten over my initial disappointment (I was expecting A LOT more), the aircraft is pretty excellent. The visuals and sounds are incredible, and most of the system/function inconsistencies (when compared to the real F-16 A/AM/CJ) are forgivable.

The only real faults with the aircraft is that the HUD gets squished and clutters towards the bottom of the HUD during higher AOA manoeuvers and the landing light won't go away after the gears have been retracted. (Oh, and the "MAP" on the RMFD has been driving me nuts too... Tongue

)

Its an excellent deal for only 30-ish bucks.

I should say every system other than weapons systems. Wink

there's now a fix out for some of the teething troubles, go to the aerosoft forums to get it. Apparently, it fixes some of the lights and the hud as well

Go Do that VooDOo that You Do So Well!&&&&

I get around 25-30 when I fly usually, but I avoid bit cities and places like that.

I'm not going to lie, I haven't gone through the start-up procedure yet, but I've been wanting to. It's just a matter of sitting down with the manual and doing it. I guess I've just had too much fun flying it.

As far as I know though, it's a pretty complicated start-up procedure, similar to the one in Falcon 4.0, so similar to the real thing. Wink
