Does it work well in FSX?

It does...but not perfectly.

VC has some gauge problems (super-imposed displayes, buttons that don't work, non-functioning AOA indexer stand out the most IIRC). Most animations work (like the aux inlet doors and entry door/ladder) but bomb bay doors are in-op. Flight dynamics seem comparable to FS9. 2D panel seems to be OK with no issues.

Prior to SP2/accel it worked identical to FS9. Unfortunately the benefits SP2/accel brought also had some drawbacks.

Have you tried this one? It's made for SP2/Acceleration:

Bummer, I was looking for a good heavy bomber for FSX, but I guess there isn't one yet.

Thanks! Just tried it, but it doesn't have a VC. Nice 2D panel though.
