Good to know, Dean, thanks ! Maybe not a warbird as such but it's deffinately 'militairy'..
Said it purely because of your "get myself a bit better established in the new sim" remark. An old biplane with just a few gauges seems a good start, don't you think ? I stuck to that idiom myself when changing my FS9 hangar to FSX with your Stearman's little cousine: NAF N3N Yellow Peril. Now wheeled it in my new MSFS hanger. Certainly a tougher place with all this new equippement and machinery..

Exactly. The acceleration profile to get to Mach 3 at FL800 in the SR is very precise and in order for it to be authentic we have to be able to fly that profile realistically. Just going full throttle, pointing it up, and levelling off when you get there wasn't the way it was done or even could be done. Another example is that the speed limitation on the bird isn't mach but inlet temperature. So that's got to be calibrated properly. Lots of details!
Our SR isn't ready till our pilot advisor signs off on it so it's not so easy to cut corners!
Almost forgot, Big Radials (OzWookiee and co) are working on a P-40B

Not arguing with you there Baz, I was referring to supersonic flight rather than the whole flight model rodeo, which is indeed chaotic compared to what we're used to. But, it can be tamed
Roy very much dislikes MSFS's flight model, we have some correspondence from time to time about it. Yet, it seems that MS have no intention of changing things all that much so, for now at least, we have to do what developers have always done, and find a way to make it right...

Yeah, for all of the talk about the flight model, I was expecting something closer to X-Plane than what we ended up with. It would be nice if they just allowed the ability to directly control the flight variables from outside the sim. I think many of us could develop a better FDE than what they came up with; Or they could make it so that the old FDE worked seamlessly with the new sim instead of having to switch modes. Anyhow, I love me some P-40B, although it makes their company name false advertising. (Not complaining!)
Anyone who has and has read the SDK will know that there is, in there, an extraordinary section on aerodynamics that appears to have been "lifted"directly from an aeronautical sciences textbook. It is so complicated and jam-packed full of symbology, compared to the rest of the document it is laughable. It is hard to believe that these are the workings used by the developer to engineer the flight model. As I understand it, Asobo's experience lies with motorcars, not aeroplanes and this shows in the current offering. Whether you like it or not, XPlane does have its roots in aeronautics and the development materials are better explained and used in that sim.
We have to hope that eventually some of the sillier bugs will be fixed or removed and we can spend our time more efficiently, rather than "in the lab" fixing things ourselves.
Party on.
There's a Mirage 2000 under development.
That's excellent news,
CodenameJack447 has supersonic flight mastered, scroll down to 21/1/21.

Thanks, I hadn't heard of Aerosoar before. He has a lot of projects that I've always wanted in development. The Miller JM-2, the Airbus E-Fan electric plane, and their other jet is a MiG-15. Check out their Facebook Page.
Great news on the Provost.
Not wanting to sound cheap, but do people who bought the original model get a price reduction?

Well other than the Mustang , if you were to take 4 away from the Mustang we are also working on that.
CTRL-Ezy has the pucara ( yes the cockpit from the exterior will be put into the interior but it is the cockpit from the exterior ). Some fast jets but I always think that fast jets arent warbirds as such but warplanes. It's a weird thing. Like the mazda mx5/miata is considered a classic now but classic to me means an MG/pony mustang/lancia aurelia etc.
Let us not forget the Bentey 4.5 litre supercharged of 1928. I know I haven't....
The Black Box Simulation Cessna L-19 Bird Dog is available in the MSFS marketplace, comes in standard, amphib and bush versions.
Even though it doesn't have guns I think it counts as a war bird.
