[gajit]

They're allowed to ask what they want, their right.
Think this is a nonsense price...IMHO
Think this is a way to promote piracy.
Not going to buy it, no rich man here

If anyone ever thought their 9.99 sale was a bad idea, business-wise, this thread proves it. :gameoff:

Great shots Ian - dont get me wrong - i expect its fantastic but i know that I could buy at least 2 maybe 3 other fantastic aircraft products for the same money that are due for release soon.

Maybe for us warbird flyers, but there's a large ´FS tubeliner community' who seem more willing to buy this kind of add-on's.

[guzler]

Have to say, it does look superb, but I don't often open engine covers and radomes up as I tend to fly them, so IMO some of the work that's costed in doesn't need to be there. I've been waiting for this, but will have to say no unfortunately, it's just too damn expensive. Them screenshots are making that decision somewhat more painfull !

[wiltzei]

Ian Warren, are you running in DX10 mode, as there is cockpit self-shadowing visible?

[mal998]

I fly both, and $80.00 US pays the electic bill for a month, without which I would not be speaking to you right now or flying anything. The quality is not the issue.

She's too expensive!

I'd rather saw off my foot than spend way too much for way too little.

Hi Ian

Great shots, but that wing view looks odd, completely bent backwards...they need to fix that, don't you think so?

Regards

[papab]

Ian,
Question: Can you get in and fly or do you have to spend hours wih the manual to start the engines?


I also see they have a Version 1.1 coming in September already....

Rick

BTW- Love the shots!

[Ian Warren]

Ian Warren, are you running in DX10 mode, as there is cockpit self-shadowing visible?
Yes Indeed DX10 and yes self shadow is visible

[Rattler]

I wonder if there are any Plans to have a KC-135 as part of this package at some point? That would be Very nice

[CG_1976]

Wonder if they have plans for the AWAC. Need the CS707 AWAC back in my intel hanger.

[Sedr37]

Great shots Ian, as usual! Got this baby too and do not regret, worth every penny of dinner at restaurant.
Yes ver1.1 is planned for September with more liveries, cabin etc. FYI -300C, VC-137 and (here we go) E-3A are planned as expansions.

[dvj]

16191You can poo poo the price all you want. This is all about those beautiful Pratt & Whitney's

16190

[gajit]

Agreed - and they will look even better when I buy them when its reduced :bump:

Jezz KC-135 .. whole new family again but jeepers , ya really open a can off worms with that variant .

[gajit]

Yep - that is one (or should I say 2) of the main reasons why i am hanging on to my money this month :salute:

Im also hoping for Carenado's Caravan and one day the Flight Replica Boomerang.

[MudMarine]

@ Bruce LOL, love it!

Poo Poo the price.......the price is poo. No matter how pretty it is, that doesn't justify the price. JMO I wish I had that kind of money! Think I'll apply for a flight simulator add-on loan! :icon_lol:

[gajit]

The great thing about the release by capt sim is it made me go to their website where I bought the Buff exterior model - great stuff and not to costly. Then flying that reminded me that for over 12 months i had not re installed all my C-130 versions. Now Im haveing great fun with those.

[gajit]

Ian - i blame you! Those screenshots of yours were too tempting in the end. Having found i have actually spent less than £100 this month on addons I took the plunge.

Wow - its the best airline product yet. Worth getting just for the nighttime flying with all the VC lighting choices. :salute:

[pbearsailor]

I agree. Expected something of the quality of their 727 which I like, but the 707 is just way better than that. Really a great VC.

cheers,

I might wait for the eventual end of season sale!Not to be confused with what might well be their 'lack of buyers' sale.

[olderndirt]

Think I'll apply for a flight simulator add-on loan! :icon_lol:Call Washington, that may be covered under the stimulus program.

[wiltzei]

Some not-so-good news for us waiting for the sale. http://www.captainsim.org/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1283263156

[Rezabrya]

No sale? Then I wont be buying anything except the B-52 cockpit. CS has always overpriced their stuff.

[wiltzei]

It seems that price has been decreased to $56/50€ with release of new patch.
