    An a2a update on coming aircraft

    FROM LEWIS AT A2A.

    Hello Everyone,

    Just a heads up, in particular for our Warbird fans, that we can now announce the T6 project has moved from initial R&D into active development. We will be trying to keep you guys somewhat up to date with some shots during development on this particular project. Michal Puto the lead artist for the model has been beavering away having already come up with this beautiful work in progress render of the model thus far;



    thanks,
    Lewis - A2A

    Same here - enough with the spam cans!

    Though you could make the case that the T-6 has a foot in each camp - warbird, but more common in the GA setting than some of the others.

    Good news in any case.

    What ya talking about Willis I mean Craig ... They simply could go wrong with this .. A2A will nail this one .. a No spinner variant and full frame canopy .. now I'm speaking to Lewis , , Scott and the Team , seriously could not have chosen a better subject.

    This is pure speculation on my part, there's no basis for it, but... I wouldn't be surprised to learn that the Seminole is actually farther along and closer to release. It'd be a smart way to control the rioters - show the warbird fans a work-in-progress model, that way they'll be less likely to scream when the next GA comes along. Plus I'm guessing that GA brings in a lot more revenue, so that'd be another reason to lead with it.

    Counterargument - the Seminole, being a twin, calls for more novel/complex Accu-sim programming than the T-6, which has more family resemblance to other Accu-sim warbirds (radial, check; cooling systems, check; retractable gear, check...) and therefore can draw on existing Accu-sim stuff.

    Bookmark this post so you can see how off-target I was when the two of them are actually released...

    Agree. "None of the above" is another strong possibility.

    Just thought - accusim radial . Good start ,start of with one and build from there .

    Just remembered - B337, B17 ..doh!

    And don't forget P-47 - the one you have no choice but to manage yourself...

    The radial should be excellent, it's been a while since the last A2A radials, and accusim has progressed a bit since then, ie realistic starting with mixture....so this radial should be even more in depth.

    Hi Friends,
    Any hope for a "good" F-104G/S/ASA Starfighter ?


  17. #17
    The SSW F104 S/G are IMHO very good models!

    Need a T-6 which is difficult to fly well, as with the real aeroplane. Hopefully this will now happen with the A2A version and please no more T-6Gs!

    Hi Menef,
    SSW's F-104G/S are indeed very good, Pluto12 & CO made a very good job with them, but the A2A aircraft have "something more", an A2A Starfighter with Accu-Sim could be a "Must".....

    Question

    Hi Manuele! Ok. Now l understand what you meant. In that sense I agree with you
    even if I'm fully satisfied with Simskunkworks "spilloni" bye

    I have a feeling the A2A T-6 will based on whatever real world example they have access to, be it a G or whatever.

    Cheers

    Good choice. I like the GA aircraft the most, I think, but as stated above, the T-6 kind of has a foot in both camps.


    And, it's a trainer, good intro to the Warbirds!
