Paid and downloaded but the log in screen in the installer doesn't work for some reason. I'll try again later. Can't wait to get airbourne.

Still not working but I'm out now for a while so hopefully it'll work when I get back.

Saw my first Commando last year at Oshkosh 2016. The sound of the engines is a real experience. I was impressed on just how big this aircraft is. It was in Boeing square very close to a C-47. Two very different aircraft.

New installer solved problem!!!
Installing now!

Downloaded the software; still will not install. The login screen seems to lock up. Anybody got any ideas?
OOPS Latest download (with -101 in title) works

[wltaylor]

Downloaded, installed and made first flight. This is a keeper!

[Roger]

Redownloaded and now installer works! Off to fly

[Willy]

Looks great! But due to r/l considerations, I'm going to have to wait a while to get it.

Is there a paint kit available for it?

Just purchased, and downloading now. Too bad I have to wait till late tonight before I can give this bird a try (work is calling, grr)

[blanston12]

Purchased!

Too bad I have to wait until I get home to download and try it, even then it will probably be tomorrow before I really have time to check it out.

[worknow]

Love it!
Had to change viewpoint a bit to match my TrackIr and added a view for the GPS.
Good VC, very good external and nice paints (3 variants: Mil, Civ and Cargo with 2 different VC).
Aircraft seems a bit overpowered since it reaches overspeed very easy - haven´t tried a heavy plane yet.
Now back to next flight...

I love the sounds(!) and she flies very nicely - handles like a big plane, but still quite docile/responsive to the controls. I love that you have the equivalent of a Corsair or P-47 strapped to each wing, pulling you along. Perhaps the most tricky aspect is just taxiing to and from the runway - to get it to turn, you need a lot of brakes and a good amount of power at slow speed (and make sure the tail wheel is unlocked!) - getting the hang of the way it handles on the ground, I'm sure I took out a few taxiway lights along the way. Before reading all of the manual, I just took it up and used the typical low-power settings that I know are normal for R-2800's, and it performed all as expected (later, reading more of the manual, the numbers listed to use for the power settings were all nearly identical to what I used/knew to be true for R-2800 operation, so that's always good - usually only the difference of an inch or two of manifold pressure per setting between the various dash numbers of R-2800's).

Here's a few screenshots from a first test flight -
