Sweet! I worked on C-130Es for 2 years. I had the Captain Sim one...it would always crash after about 45 minutes. I'm sure this version wont do that to me.

In keeping with your run with North American products, how about a Vigilante, Fury or Sabreliner? I'm also itchin' for a Cougar. (Thought V.S. might do one to go with their Panther, but...)

KC10/ DC10 please!

FS world has been missing good simulation of this important bird for ever... :(

Hi Krazycolin,

sorry, I know my reply doesn´t answer your question, but it´s worth a try... :D

What about the Sukhoi T-50 PAK/FA? I know, it´s a russian stealth-fighter, but this warbird looks stunning!

I´d pay many many bucks to have this glorious aircraft in my P3D!

All the best to you
Bernd

Would you consider developing the Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey?
This would be a great addition to the sim world and would add realism to developing current campaigns. Providing an aircraft with both airplane and rotor craft capabilities would be awesome!

KC-10 all the way. I know and trained a lot of KC-10 pilots.

I imagine the Osprey is a programming nightmare

RE: Osprey

I'm sure Milviz could rise up to the challenge. Again, it would be a monumental addition.

I doubt they'll do it. The problem is that the amount of programming required would be on the order of Accusim or PMDG's background stuff because FSX does NOT support tilt-rotor operations. All flight models are "derivative" in FSX. This means you set one of a predetermined "base" models (i.e. jet, prop, turboprop, helicopter) and then adjust the flight model to "perform" like the plane you're building. Because of this, it's not possible to have a "plane" hover or a "helicopter" to fly at high speeds.

What you'd have to do is create a way to either swap between the two models (helicopter and flight) or create a wholly external flight model that can operate in both regimes and feed the information into FSX (which is much of what A2A's Accusim does). Either one is a very large investment in programming time and I suspect one beyond any reasonable price point.

It's not just that... it's that it would be for, really, a select few and it's not financially viable in that way.

The question really is, who (how many) would buy the Osprey. I personally would for the challenge of flying it. I can imagine that, if sufficient people were interested, the development efforts would be worth it. I have faith in Milviz's ability to deliver the usual quality product.

My 2 cents.

Honestly, I would be surprised if many did buy it... unless it was relatively inexpensive. That not being possible, it's unlikely it would do better than an equivalently priced ATR... which is the next big plane...
