    F-111 on approach

    I thought that this upcoming product might be of interest to some of you SOH'ers!










    We've posted more info and screenshots on the site today:

    Looks good!

    Does this have anything to do with this one?

    If not, that will mean that there will be three F-111s on the market all within a few months of each-other!

    Looking at the screenshots I would say the Just Flight model is completely new. Also, Just Flight is talking about A/C versions while F111-FSX.com (a Russian team I believe) does the F-111E. Just guessing: Aeroplane Heaven is behind the Just Flight model.

    fuel tanks look way off, completely wrong......any chance of a side view? They look too small. I believe the fuel tank used on the A-10 is the same one.

    without detracting from the other developers ... but the ONLY ... TRUE ... FULL ... real MODEL for FSX (within limits) is:

    What does the http://www.f111-fsx.com/

    offer that the others don't?

    That page http://www.f111-fsx.com/ doesn't offer anything - or maybe some malware.

    The Malwarebytes Anti-malware stops loading the page and informs that the page is maliciuos!

    No this project has nothing to do with any others, this is the first time our product has been made public.

    Thanks for the feedback. Please bear in mind that this is still 'in-development' and is subject to change.

    Until our product (and the other products) have been released, I'm not sure that it is possible to make a statement like that.


    The product is approaching very quickly, so you shouldn't have very long to wait

    Noticed this Just Flight release says they are doing the F-111A and the F-111E. Will be nice to have the "A" model for some low level flights across SEA with the mesh turned up. Combat Lancer and Linebacker come to mind. Wish someone would do the F-111B model. Lots of colorful "what if" schemes possible given the time period.

    If they did an F-111B, I would hope it would be the pre-production variant and not the prototype, as there were large differences between the two, such as the repositioned landing gear and longer nose. I don't think the pre-production variant was ever built with the raised cockpit planned for the production variant.

    However, I would settle for a prototype.

    Actually saw the Bravo's a few years back. As far as I know they are still in existence in the bone yard at China Lake. Nobody I was with was old enough to know what they or the Viggies near them were. There is A LOT of history at that location, pity the average airplane fan will never see it.:salute:
