The German wireless tuning gauges are by H.Keitel. The invisible "COWL_FLAP_SWITCHS" gauge is by Ken Mitchell(www.mitchspanelshop.com) modified by Tom Gibson (www.calclassic.com) to augment the retail capability of MSFS. The tiny 'human autopilot' pop up gauge is also from an early Calclassic CV340 release.

Thanks so much! Flies beautifully -- and that sound.

[HorusJ]

What a team!!!
Great job you guys!

[Blackbird686]

I'll second that, HorusJ. And the sounds... are you KIDDING??? They're PERFECT, and they really give the Z1007 some personality. Beautifully crafted in every aspect... my hat goes off to you guys.

Hi Friends,
Thanks for Your appreciation, this was really an "HARD" job !!!
Our cooperation with FSAviator was deep and I suggest You to read the FANTASTIC FSAviator's Crew Training Manual & history files included in the package in order to appreciate the '1007's features.

I just finished a flight out of Sigonella and back. Oops! Bombs away! Now I know how that works. Beautiful airplane and a lot of work put into the package.

HI,

Thank you, Manuele and Team, for this beauty. Another powerful addition to our virtual Hangars.
I would like to add my thanks to FSAviator for the extraordinary level of background information he has provided for this aircraft and it's activities and history Truly wonderful.

Andy.

[Navtech]

Nice aircraft

[Wing_Z]

I had very slow texture loading when making the clip below, so I ran the files through convimx which seemed to fix things...
What a great VC, beautiful hi-res knobs, and brilliant gauges!

Fantastic job by all, I can just add my thanks also to those already expressed.

Hi,
I think that the PNF in the rear seat has taken the Human Autopilot with him and hidden it.....I saw it a couple of times and then it went AWOL.

It's a wonderful airplane and many Thanks to all !

Hi Andy,

[lemonadedrinker]

Hi,
Thank you for your response which set me wondering about it.
It was me tinkering caused the autopilot to disappear . I like to use Doug Dawson's Skip View gauge if there is no 2D or VC view and so I began thinking too hard and changed the numbering of the Windows in the panel cfg and thereby lost the Autopilot.

All back to normal now.

Thanks again for this beauty, which is so nicely balanced, really doesn't need an autopilot anyway!!

Andy.

I am off to get this. But my stage coverage in the Giro d'Italia begins in 30 minutes, must watch. Of for a day without rain.

[gaucho_59]

Every inch of it a masterpiece... Thank you so much

Manuele,

This is a great creation that you and you team have done. Many war-birds look like the blunt functional killing tools they were. CRDA adds class to this bomber aircraft in the way that Gucci adds class to a leather jacket.

This is one beautiful looking machine. What with the amazing VC and features, plus the sound, this is a war-bird that will certainly be getting little hangar time on my sim.

Thanks once again to one and all who were involved in the gestation and delivery of this classic. A classic from WWII - now a classic FS a/c for all to enjoy.

Any ideas?
