It's been on a few days Ian. I indulged in the F5E TigerII to go with my Milviz T38. A complete waste of money. Flew it once and binned it

I'd wanted to get the Harvard for a while (already had the early FS9/FSX version and presumed this version wouldn't be a port-over!) but having been put onto Wozza's T6 recently, there was absolutely no need to buy the Virtavia model again!

Went scratching around my HD and realised I'd not installed Mustang Tales (bought at Christmas along with so many other things!!). Happy once more

Thanks for the Heads Up Ian. This morning I bought the Lincoln, B-45, B-29, F-86, Hunter and A-4. My initial impressions of these Virtavia products are not wholly positive. Where I have freeware equivalents they seem to me, at first sight, to be more what I was hoping for. I bought many Alphasim products years ago and admired and enjoyed them, perhaps with time I might come to appreciate these newer offerings.

Was tempted to go for the Lincoln at $14.98, but when I go to the checkout it says its $19.93!

Think will wait for another day.

Just checked, but prices 'in cart' are a lot higher than the listed price.....

Still a good aircraft Cees, especially for just $12.50! Comes with several H3 and H6 models (Four different ones I believe) and plenty of repaints around.

Does anyone know if the Hampden is a port-over on an FsX native model?

The Heinkel He-111 is early FSX quality at best.

That is of course just MHO.

I'd agree with that Johan. It remains one of my fave Alpha/Virtavia releases of all time. There's a rather good FD update available for it in the library here too
