GAS Boeing PT-17 Native for MSFS

***Spad54*** · January 30th, 2021, 10:05

While we finish up the FDE on our MSFS native Kinner Sportwing. Work has begun on our native version of our PT-17. We hope to have it out in a few months or less.

That looks more like photographs than screenshots!

I agree with Tom, she looks stunning.
The more Bi-Planes the better IMO.

BTW how's the FM coming along ?
I'm really hoping she won't be such a handful on the ground as the Carenado WACO is.

Very early yet. Our FDE team is putting the finishing touches on the Kinner and so has not really started refining them. My expectations are that the Stearman will display the same FM performance as it does in P3D.

Ok, Mr.Spad, Sir, no offense but a glamorous photo of a real Stearman like that is of course highly appreciated by us biplanes aficionados but please stick to screenies of your PT-17 model only as that is what we're all looking out for, Ok ? Thank you !

Hurry up and take my money!

Surely you jest, Sir. Did you not appreciate the HUD in the shot? 🤣

Seriously, the only way I knew the second shot wasn't a photo was the dev mode caption up high and the strange grass. The plane itself is stunning!

Thanks. This is no 'port over, as some might assume, but a full native MSFS milspec version of our Stearman using Asobo compatible code and materials.

that shot of the Navy N2S-3 looks just like a real world photograph

That was clearly photoshopped in to fool us, wasn't it...

Btw, in fact i was talking about the air2air shot of the yellow Navy Stearman, not the cockpit covered USArmy PT-17..

(yeah, sure just kidding, Spad. Totally amazing work ! Congrats !

( and fantastic screenshot too !

))

Cheers,
Jan

Thanks. This a true team effort and credit for the work needs to go to OzWookie who has joined the team to help facilitate the initiative to bring GAS models to the new sim. He has a real passion for round motors and vintage aircraft and it shows.

Surely not a biggy, Spad, just looks a bit 'careless': the goggle strap running *thru* the headphone shells instead of *over* (or above) it. Easy fix, right ? Was also in FSX/P3D version but we can't have that in MSFS, can we.

Thanks for consideration!
