Tristarcaptain 282 Posted December 26, 2015 Report Share Posted December 26, 2015 Has anyone tried or got the Flight 1 Su-27 Flanker B? If so, please can you let me know your thoughts on it and if it is any good? I must admit that I love the Flanker and I have the Bear Studios Su-30. TIA. Martin Link to post Share on other sites
J G 927 Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 Sorry Martin, I don't have any Russian aircraft in my collection. I mainly concentrate on the RAF. The pics look good on the flight 1 page, but I guess as there is no review in the Mutley collection then its a $32 leap into the unknown. Looking at other Flight 1 reviews on the Mutley list, they seem to be about the 8 to 9 out of ten mark. Link to post Share on other sites
SEATAC 400 Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 Don't have it. Sorry. But my Flight 1 Super 80 is superb! If they did the same with the Flanker you will be impressed. But it also depends on who the developer is. Flight 1 is the publisher. Coolsky developed the Super 80. But overall I think Flight 1 has high standards. Did you check You Tube for any reviews of it?

mutley 4,487 Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 Hi Martin, I would stick with Bear Studios, have a look at this, http://www.mutleyshangar.com/reviews/joe/flanker/flanker.htm I haven't flown it for a few years but it great fun with the carrier ops.

Tristarcaptain 282 Posted December 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2015 Thanks to all who took the trouble to respond to this. I could not find any actual reviews on YouTube and there seems to be little on line about the Flight1 Su-27 Flanker B. It does look like it is produced with ALS-SIM. Now for the embarrassing part...I did buy it a way back, but it did not install right and unfortunately I did not create an account, so I lost it. (I told you in a previous post that I am not good on a computer). Anyway, it appeared in FSX like a skeleton with bits missing (like the problem someone had with the AFS F-4 Phantom). After reading that post, I checked to see if it is DX10 compatible, and it appears to be...however...that particular site said that I have to 'have full administration rights' when installing (I am on Windows 7 64 bit)...maybe that is where I went wrong? Anyway, it is one to consider, but I am loving the Bear Studios Su-30. I did consider the Naval version, but I guess that I am really hoping for a proper Sea Flanker in Russian markings!! Anyway, I enjoy the Aerosoft F-14 and it's carrier. Maybe one day, I will be able to figure out Tac-Pack and how to fire the missiles!! Happy New Year to all out there.
