    Wake Up!!

    Please stay alert, gentlemen! Picked this up from a well respected tubeliner fansite where it should've been the other way around, shouldn't it !

    Anyway, check this out. The video itself has a lot of unmistakingly high quality about it too. If i set my mind to it i'd even like the music !

    Holy Moly! That's what we're talking about,éh !?

    JRollon for President !

    Edit: the song is Elastic Heart by australian singer Sia. Bet that has something to do with Siai... Nice touch ;-)

    I love the SF-260. It is one of my go to aircraft in P3D. Looking forward to this project.

    Thank you for the heads up.

    John isn't the only one....this is my FAVORITE GA aircraft. It'll be a must buy...when I feel that MSFS 2020 is debugged enough (and I've upgraded my video card) to be enjoyable.

    I want it! One of my favorite planes too. I scoured the net for a disk version of the Real Air SF 260 when my download would no longer install.

    Looks like fun! If it has at least a basic autopilot, I'll probably get it.

    On a side note, I put Sia in the same class as P!nk and Lady Gaga. They all have incredible voices, but other than one or two songs each, I'm just not a fan of their brand of "Pop" music. But if you really want your mind blown, look up P!nk's version of "White Rabbit!"

    Well, despite the fact i have been a popmusician myself for the best part of my life i'm not into contemporary popmusic that much anymore for a long time. I'm sorta stuck with my all time favourite popband with a touch of jazz: Steely Dan. (R.I.P Walter Becker). I do pick up some contemporary pop that i like every now and then, including this 'Siai Marchetti tribute' by Sia. First time i have ever heard of her. Very well produced i might add although a bit over the top. I do kinda love her voice. But when it comes to female singers i am much more into Joni Mitchell, Carole King, Aretha Franklin, Bonnie Raitt, Björk, you know, old school. Love Amy Winehouse.

    Never liked Lady Gaga (the above never needed to wear a meat dress to be successful) and i don't know anything about Pink. Have to say too i never felt much for 'White Rabbit' nore Jefferson Airplane. Then again always loved Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. Pink's version does sound better than the original. Still(s) i'd go for 'For what it's worth' by Buffalo Springfield anytime.



    Blow my mind ?.... I'll put 'Cosmic Slop' by Parliament Funkadelic on the turntable (yep). Play it LOUD!!

    Gaga's stuff is over the top on purpose - that's just her. I still haven't seen the "A Star Is Born" remake, but her music from that movie is good and really showcases her voice.

    As for P!nk, here's one clip that shows her softer side:

    The Real Air SF 260 for FSX/P3D has an auto pilot. I will assume this one will too.

    Nice, Tom. Must be a special feeling to be able to sing with your father on stage. Apples don't fall far from the tree, don't they.

    Seems funny to put an auto pilot in an airplane.. (sorry John, in my language 'auto' means car... ;-)


    I do wonder what Rob and Sean think about this. As always Rob's flightmodel for their Marchetti was immaculate, a dream to fly. Will be interesting to see how this MSFS bird will behave. Have to say i LOVE the looks. Both internal and external.
