    From the screenshots on that page, it doesn't really look good... especially the VC.

    Nice price.
    Not sure...

    Daube,

    Not being "hands on familiar" with the aircraft, and only looking quickly at the screenshots, I don't entirely know what you mean.

    As for the VC, the description says "NOT study level."

    As with any aircraft depiction, some will like, some won't. I just saw it when I was checking updates, and thought I would post it.

    Maybe I won't do anymore.

    Thanks for posting. I agree, the exterior definitely looks good. Cockpit, meh! it's clean but could use some work. I have seen worse things from other well know designers that looked a lot worse at release and were almost twice as pricey. I'll check it out this weekend and give my thoughts but can't beat the price.

    The cockpit looks like a home-build F-5 replica, using MDF and plywood. All it needs is a PC keyboard, with a Saitek X-52, and it would be strangely authentic.

    Dang, you guys are critical. I just looked at the images on the website, and the cockpit doesn't look to bad to me. I am more interested in what systems work, not the polish on the cockpit rails and gauges.

    I too will wait for some reviews.

    I have always loved the design of the F-5 because of the way the main fuselage, the inlet/engines section and fuselage top/ canopy fairing are so beautifully blended together. Add to that the likewise beautifully shaped tip tanks (i believe only present on 'Nato birds' ) and there you have one small but magnificent looking aluminium bird of prey. Particularly with the sun playing with the 3 almost 'stand alone' parts of fuselage the F-5 is a feast for the eyes. Well, atleast *my* eyes as it's all IMHO of course. ;-)



    Now with even *2* F-5E's on the market what would the chances be to see a F-5A/B and NF-5A/B a.o. in the slipstream of both these F-5E releases you think ? Fat chance ?.....

    Btw, i agree with Paul, the Venom Zero F-5E VC does resemble to have been build with plywood and MDF...

    Also, because it looks like the VZ F-5E uses the default MSFS jetfighter pilot figure the external model might be slightly overscaled... Compared to RW F-5 photos the pilot figure is way too small (here we go again.. )





    If you look at the size of the VZ pilot figure he might just as well be flying an F-4...
