ShrewsburyFC 215 Posted June 2, 2014 Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 Hi Guys, Here are a few shots of my prize. I have only managed a quick flight round as it took me a while to get the thing in the air!! It looks like a great product so far but im sure I've only scratched the surface of what its really capable of. I thought this would be a good choice as Im currently looking to take my flying further in the real world, this product will benefit my Sim experience & real world preparation greatly with the realistic aircraft systems etc. Im still looking into flight schools here in the UK & different airline programs that are available, hopefully I will be able to put in an application in the near future!Enjoy! Cheers,Sam. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

brett 2,316 Posted June 2, 2014 Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 Great shots of this somewhat awkward looking aircraft. I like the plane myself even though I prefer GA flying. Have you looked into the Airline2Sim Q400 Cadet Training videos? I learned a lot from them. Link to post Share on other sites

Captain Coffee 2,030 Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 Awesome choice, esp as you have RW experience to apply it to. I love hearing folk's accounts of how they are using FS's for Real World preparation...it elevates this Simulation to another level beyond "Game" that (coff coff) *normal folks don't get. Thanks for sharing your loots!! Link to post Share on other sites

remingtonbox 18 Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Word of advice... anything is easier to land than this airplane, that being said, it is a ton of fun to fly and the procedures/flows are essential learning for real world airline flying. Great purchase! Link to post Share on other sites

Great purchase! I'm not sure what it is about de Havilland products (the Bombardier Dash 8 was originally designed by that illustrious firm) but you must fly them onto the ground. The DHC-2 (Beaver) is the same. Cut the throttle and it falls like a rock. Try it with the Dash - works a treat. Power on all the way to touchdown. Enjoy your new a/c Sam - it's a winner!
