Am looking forward to using this for some local hops within ZLA. Should make for some good videos...and I'm thrilled to be back to steam gauges!

Post a few vids or pics when you get a chance. Sure does look awesome.

I'm spending some time with it right now....it's a little overwhelming. I'm just going through the overview right now of what every switch does. I'm blown away by how many systems have been faithfully modeled here. You can grab the entire manual for free (warning, the grammar is off because the author is not very fluent in English): http://www.x-aviation.com/landing.php?cid=wGzeEAFX

This plane is very different than others I've seen. There are no plugins for custom gauges, but the a whole bunch of systems have been added via the plugin mechanism. It also handles its own failure system, so if you overcook the engines, it'll take them out. It will do its own random failures, etc.

The pressurization and air conditioning systems alone have my jaw on the floor. I cannot wait to get this thing in the air. The panel reflections are a first, too. You can really only see them in action in real time, though. My first movie will capture it, I'm sure.

Best way to see the attachments is to right click on each to open in new tab/window.

Keith, are you saying that is is harder to operate than JRollon's CRJ2 ?

I just flew it for a while. Yes, considerably more work. This is a bit of a handful, no doubt about it. You have to worry about frying the engines, adjusting power in the climb as the torque and EGT drops off, and a whole lot more.

The panel really is a work of art, though...I love the guards on the switches. I opted not to record a video tonight for a few reasons, but I'll be sure to do one very soon.
