Kevin Firth 114 Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 its very good :) Link to post Share on other sites
dodgy-alan 1,587 Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Looks good, but having paid out for 2 previous Lancaster releases I don't think I'll be investing another one anytime soon. For that reason, I'm out! Link to post Share on other sites
Tristarcaptain 282 Posted August 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Have you bought and flown it then, Kevin? I know that it LOOKS good and have been looking forward to it. I sold my old FSX Lancaster a while back as I was hoping that this would be better...... Link to post Share on other sites

I know that it LOOKS good and have been looking forward to it. I sold my old FSX Lancaster a while back as I was hoping that this would be better...... I helped beta test it. I can attest to a huge amount of effort being put in to get it right. I never had the old FSX lanc so I can't compare them I'm afraid. Now, there are aspects that some might find less than attractive. For the autistic me, I would have liked to see the bomb computer and GEE/Oboe being fully functional modelled systems, and for it to be tacpac enabled. But I think at the pricepoint thats not really to be expected. Aircraft like this have to have some compromises made because there has to be enough of a market for them. I'd pay double for a study level Op Chastise capable lanc, but I suspect not enough people would to make it profitable. Link to post Share on other sites
Tristarcaptain 282 Posted September 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2018 Oops, Kevin. I only just found this reply......sorry! Well, I have the sim now and I like it. I REALLY love the way that they have done those Merlins......they sound so good. I do have their Mosquito, and to me, the engines on that do not sound quiet right. Obviously, a lot of effort has been put into the Lanc and the detailing is good. Like you, I would have loved for it to be Tac-pack enabled, but such is life. I am surprised that they did not do the Dambuster version or the one for the Grand Slam bomb (the latter of which was an option on the older Lanc.) I am now looking forward to the Just Flight Vulcan which is due out this year! Imagine that with a Tac-pack!!! (bet it won't happen though). Thanks for your work on the beta testing!!
