Unlike the old freeware Alphasim model you'll really need to read the manual to fly this!

Is the vc clickable and how does if feel to fly. I have been checking it out, but don't know if it is something I should get. Just have so many planes.
Nice screenies, Ferry

I never got to fly it. I always killed myself.

Don't really know about the VC yet, so far I've done a bit of high altitude flying using the 2D panels for the CG and the autopilot and a bit of touch and go's around Edwards.
It is a real beast to fly with very narrow margins. At lower altitudes the speed margin to safely fly in is somewhere from 250 kts up to 460 kts, with -0.2 and +2.5 G limits which is hard enough with those powerful engines, but you'll need to keep the AoA in mind too! More than 10 degrees and you risk losing one or bot hengines, exceed 14 degrees and you can enter an almost unrecoverable stall.
Basically you'll need to fly it like a heavy airliner at lower speeds. (An airliner without flaps that is!)
Once you go high and fast you'll need to follow procedures and use the autopilot to fly.
This is one of the first aircraft I had to print a part of the manual to properly fly the aircraft.

Change the VC resolution in your cfg panel to
[Vcockpit01]
pixel_size=2048,2048s
your VC will look even better but hits the FPS a bit
Other then this happy flame out
