Been watching the thread for this bird over at FlightSim.com. I was pleasantly surprised when I read that it was for X-Plane, and not FSX as I had assumed from the level of detail in the shots. I'll say this, since I first got into X-Plane a couple years ago (v9.20) this sim has really matured and come into it's own. With the epic fail (IMHO) that is MS Flight, I think a lot of the old time MS fans will at least try out the demo for XP10 to see what the buzz is all about. It's third party products like this DC-3 that is going to be the real future of the X-Plane line. FSX would have died out long ago without all the amazing stuff that's been made for that sim, and seeing as how FS2004 still gets some new product from time to time, it seems quite obvious that the success and longevity of civilian flight simulators is directly related to the output of numerous high quality add-on aircraft, scenery, utilities, etc. This DC-3 is a true work of flight sim art, and I can't wait for the SAAB to be released. Been flying my Falco all day and, even after all this time, I still marvel at the incredible attention to detail that was paid while building her.

Was privileged enough to be able to buy Jason Chandlers Piper 9.70 pack last night!!! Changed pits and wheel fairing where I saw fit, then went all sorts of flying. Didn't remember FRAPS the first couple sessions, but I got a few shots that I will share with you all. Sadly, my recently re-acquired Falco will not be part of this set as I just got her up and flying (Thanks Tom and Cameron!) so no shots just yet. Tomorrow, that's a different story!!!
