Flight Replicas Messerschmitt Bf-109K-4 Released (Payware)

The Messerschmitt Bf-109K-4 for FSX(A) has been released....

A couple of things to note:

Please take the time to read the manual. The cockpit familiarization illustration is not in a style that we're perhaps used to in FSX, but it's what the real pilots had, and so that's what you get! There are, however, FSX-specific illustrations at the rear of the manual, to cover things that are not covered by the basic operations.

You may also find the electrical switch/buttons more difficult to click on in the VC, but this has been left deliberately as that's fundamentally the view the pilots would have had. The clickspot zones have been extended to enable easy use, however. Just watch the tooltips carefully, and you should get the hang of it.

The guns will not work on the ground, as the brake switch that is on most joysticks also functions at the gun trigger in the air, and so the functions change. It might also save you shooting your Chief Mechanic's head off by accident.

Ctrl-E will not start the airplane - unless you have the magnetos on. Page 26 of the Manual will give you the full starting procedure to use.

The 109K will be available on the Flight Replicas website only, for the first week or so, until I know there are no bugs, and then it will go to the other vendors, if that's where you prefer to shop.

The 109K available on the Flight Replicas website contains the full historically accurate fin markings, and this is default. There are alternative textures in the relevant texture folders, just drop the one you want into the textures and let overwrite.

Turn the volume up - they were loud. We hope you enjoy the Bf-109K-4!

Aww shoot. I'm out of dosh and also have to go to work. May have to wait a while on this. Either way, I'm eagerly awaiting the aircraft and have been very much looking forward to it. You are an excellent producer of planes, and you don't really get the credit I suspect for what you do. One of the things I really like about you Mike is you are no bull$&#*, and from what I have observed in the last few years you have always been kind, never taken offense to much and generally don't take issue with other developers. That seems to be a rarity these days. You just diligently work on your projects, and there is a lot to be said about that kind of work ethic. I wish you absolute success with this bird!
