Virtavia Sale!

[andersel]

Virtavia is having a MASSIVE 50% off sale at the FS Pilot Shop.

[Jagdflieger]

Just picked up the Do 214 and the He 111. I'll get them into the air in the sim after attending the McChord Field air show tomorrow.

[awj112]

For more savings, switch to Geico... Oops, I mean go the the PC aviator on Tuesday for an additional 10% off. It becomes a 60% Virtavia sale.

[ThinkingManNeil]

Damn, and I just emptied my PayPal account buying a camera mount for my telescope. Anybody know how long the sale's gonna last? I'd like to pick up the Yak-52 (the tailwheel version looks pretty nifty...)

I've had my eye on the Yak-52s for a while... and was finally able to get them. Wow! They are more than worth the money!

[Moses03]

Picked up the de Havilland Vampire. I have a weakness for the early jets. :cool:

[Taco]

Hehe, I just purchased the F-89 Scorpion a few days before the sale at the full price! Boo-Hoo, It's fair enough tho, after all the freeware they have given us!

Tuesdays are 'ten off tuesday' at PC Aviator, so another ten percent off everything, sales included. :)

No, no issues here. I find them sweet flyers, just as beautiful to fly as they are to look at!
Then again, I don't usually use the AP, so if there is an issue there, I haven't found it. (I don't do many long distance flights, 30 to 50 miles is generally far enough for me.)

Thanks for the info, Ferry. I'm planning a substantial purchase, so pennies count! :salute:

All Alphasim/Virtavia paint kits should be here: http://www.easyfly.co.nz/Freeware/index.php?dir=/Paint%20Kits.

If you don't see what you need PM me and I'll get Phil to add it or if I built the original kit (F-105 for example) I'll get it to you.

Hi Frank, thanks very kindly for the offer, sir. First place I looked was the freeware site and didn't see them. Found one for the EA-6B but not for the others. PM to you in a bit.

Regards,

Steve

Thanks awj112. I waited until today to take advantage of 10% Tuesday at PCA and picked up the B-24, the C-17A and the EA-6B Prowler. I am seriously considering going back for the Skyray and/or the Demon. Geez!, I am SUCH a junkie.

Andersel,

I bought the Skyray during a previous sale and have never regreted it. While growing up I thought it was one of the neatest jets flying ... gues I still do.

[Desert Rat]

Tuesday saw me buy the Tu22, Tu22M and the Demon (I think it's 'funky' and you can definitely see the Demon/Voodoo/Phantom II family lineage, which is a great thing in my eyes.)

I also bought the Seaking pack again as when I originally bought it from AlphaSim I only bought the UK pack, got it to add the US versions.

Agree with Jagd about the Skyray, very neat. I thought I had it, turns out I don't, my recollections must have been about the paint kit from their freeware site. I'd get it to now, but blown my pocket-money already, bummer!!

[expat]

The one I really wanted - the B-36 - doesn't seem to be there. Didn't Alphasim do a Peacemaker?

[Ferry_vO]

Yes, they did. Maybe it will appear on their freeware site someday..?

[awj112]

Yes, they did. Maybe it will appear on their freeware site someday..?

Hoping the B-52 will show up there as well.

[Jagdflieger]

Not sure what happened to the Peacekeeper, but it is sure worth the effort to download if it ever shows up again.

I never got the AlphaSim F-8E Crusader for FS9 when it was available. :banghead: Phil said they have no plans to re-release it or make it available as freeware. If/when Sylvain Parouty comes out with his F-8 package for FSX I'm on it like crows on road-kill.

That's another one I am glad I picked up then... I think I got it on sale some place.

Kind of sad to see it die really. I think I purchased it based on Grover's old Alphasim videos.

There is the this one (http://simviation.com/1/search?submit=1&keywords=crusader.zip&categoryId=&filename=Y)...

[andersel]

I just couldn't justify purchasing both the Skyray AND the Demon so I went with the F4D this time. Lots and lots of textures available for it and it is just soooo swoopy. Jets from my kidhood... woohoo!

[Blackbird686]

There is the this one (http://simviation.com/1/search?submit=1&keywords=crusader.zip&categoryId=&filename=Y)...

And THAT one is an EXCELLENT Crusader for FS9. I have been flying it for several years, very nice attention to detail and it comes in US NAVY and MARINE versions as well as French Air Force. Even a US Navy Blue Angels variant. It's a freebie and a must have if you are an F-8 Crusader fan. :salute: Sorry, didn't mean to get off topic... I thought at one time Alphasim had released their Crusader as freeware, maybe not.

Downloaded that 'Sader yesterday after awj112 posted the link (thank you). Excellent package with good choice of paint jobs. Still have to figure out all the switchology for the animations and such.
