Really REALLY Want a systems intensive DH Mosquito

[dougal]

I have the CBFS model, which is nice, but considering what an iconic aircraft the Mozzi was, I'm amazed we don't have a high fidelity addon for FSX or P3D. Is the old Justflight model any better?

No, it's not as good either!

I still like it, and remember that as well as the glass nose version it's the only solid nose version so far.

Martyn, you rotten stinker; you have no compassion for a chap's credit card!! :engel016:

Really REALLY Want a QUALITY DH Mosquito

Ouch, that hurt!:dizzy:

Ouch, that hurt!:dizzy:

Yes, very subtle wasn't it!
Well Dave, your BIV is the best Mosquito available by a long margin AND the paintkit is user-friendly, not a nightmare!
The upcoming JF FBVI looks great so far, but they will not be able to match your price!(won't stop me getting it though!). Hope there will be a paintkit as well.

Sometimes I really don't know what to say :dizzy: But I fully agree with Peter's words and I think the image shows more than I currently can say with words.

Dave, thanks for this wonderful gift :encouragement:

Dave, your Mosquito is a must have here in my collection. I fly it a lot! Thanks for that!

Just to be clear, I think I know what Dougal meant in his original post, it just came across a bit harsh.
I'm looking forward to the upcoming JF model myself.:biggrin-new:

[jeansy]

Im sticking with yours dave

Hear, hear and then some! Dave's Mosquito is top flight and one of my favorites. One of these days, when I get tired of "Mallarding"....

[dvj]

A perfectly awful quality model. :biggrin-new:

I'm quite happy with Dave's model, looks good & flies good!

Still one of my favorite models, freeware or payware

Agreed! First evening I had it, I took it for a night flight and the sound and visual immersion was stunning.

Daves bomber Mossie is hard to beat, it is a superb model (have you ever considered a big bay bomber Dave?). Cannot really understand the heading of this post..

Having said that I'm very much looking forward to a FB Mosquito with a gun nose for capturing the Norwegian part of the Mossie story.

[dougal]

Ouch, that hurt!:dizzy:

Oh bugger! Sorry Dave, I really didn't mean it to sound like that. I love the Mozzi - and love your model. When I do reinstalls of my sim (about every 3 months;-)) your mozzi gets installed b4 ANY of my current 67 payware aircraft!!!!

By hi fidelity I simply meant in depth systems etc

I'd write more but currently in my sick bed :-(

Perhaps a kind mod would amend the title for me?

How about changing 'quality' for 'systems intensive' or the like;-)

I really REALLY hope you dont take offense Dave

'In depth systems' on a Mossie?
Steam gauges and not much else IRL.

If I read Dougal correctly, what he'd like to see is an A2A/Accu-Sim grade Mossie, with all the machinery modeled in high fidelity (performance of individual cylinder heads, oil lines modeled and subject to ambient temperature, that sort of thing) so that it'd require some operational discipline to run. So not a Mossie with an FMC, more an in-depth systems airplane the way the A2A Cub is an in-depth systems airplane.

I agree it'd be nice to see something like an Accu-Mossie but since we're not likely to, I'm happy to check out Dave's, which I've managed to miss until now.

[fsxar177]

...what he'd like to see is an A2A/Accu-Sim grade Mossie,...


Yeah .. That's all we need. Then next time they release a GA plane, your $100 mosquito would break. ($200 if you fly in P3D also)

Pass ....

I'm with those that enjoy Dave's model. For what it's worth, it a dang nice bird, and free to boot.

Joseph, I realize you've got a longstanding feud running with A2A and you never pass on an opportunity to bash them, but let's not get this thread any further off topic. I wasn't saying that there ought to be an A2A Mosquito. I was mentioning Accu-Sim as an example (responding to Wombat's post) of how a simple-seeming, steam-gauge airplane could have intensive systems. There are other examples (Marcel Felde's 4X comes to mind) but A2A/Accu-Sim is well known and therefore useful as a kind of shorthand illustration. You cool with that?

Oh, and just to pre-empt any additional back-and-forth - yes, I buy A2A airplanes and post in their forums. I also buy other airplanes and post in other forums. I'm completely in favor of top-shelf freeware - go visit the thread about Jan's VVC for Manfred's C-47 if you're in doubt.

Off now to explore Dave's Mossie.

Over and out.

EDIT: Missed one point while reacting to your snark - I'm not sure what you mean by "break," I've never had an A2A aircraft broken by an update. If you did, maybe it comes down to system differences. I don't want to belabor (or even return to) a discussion of A2A, but I wouldn't want someone coming across your comment to think that your experience was universal.

Now, over and out, and this time I mean it...

Actually, I'm not even sure about the French. I seem to remember reading that Eric Thompson recorded the English version cold over the video track without listening to the original French sound.
