papeg 0 Posted July 9, 2011 Report Share Posted July 9, 2011 I've been flying Virtavia's C-17 in Air Hauler for the last few weeks. I must say, I like it. The VC is quite nice and the exterior is great. She even comes with the 2D cockpit if thats what you prefer. Have any of you flown it? Greg Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted July 9, 2011 Report Share Posted July 9, 2011 At $55 she's got to be good, eh? Can you post some screeshots... Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
papeg 0 Posted July 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 OK, here are some pictures. The Cockpit isn't as complicated as a PMDG or some of those others but it does look nice and has a nice HUD. All I added to it was a FMC from ISG. My Air Hauler company has a contract with FEDEX so here is my C-17 in FEDEX paint. Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 Very classy, George. I don't fly jets, but for that one I might make an exception. John Link to post Share on other sites

pacinka 0 Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 That's a good-looking model! How are the sounds and flight dynamics? Link to post Share on other sites
papeg 0 Posted July 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 Sound is spot on. I've worked in US Air Bases for most of my adult life and the sound in this package sound very real. The flight dynamics are really good but I don't know if they compare to the real C-17, I think it flys very well. Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,497 Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 Hi there papeg, This one has been a long time coming, it started off as an Alphasim development a few years ago before they shut up shop. I am surprised the VC is not better quality but the proof is in the flying and it certainly seems to work well for you. Thanks for posting Joe Link to post Share on other sites
forstmeier 0 Posted December 26, 2011 Report Share Posted December 26, 2011 Hi, this is my first Post. Maybe it is of interest. My own corrected C-17A Virtavia ISG retrofit panel. http://fsbuild.com/f....php?f=4&t=4229 Now all original switch buttons are working, even the original ones. The retrofit did not include the 2 Virtavia_C-17!MFDX1 + MFDX2 Gauges necessary for the 2-D panel. The 3-D panel is now including 2 ISG MCU as you can see on the image. Click on, the MCU is opening. regards, Raimund . Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,497 Posted December 26, 2011 Report Share Posted December 26, 2011 Hi Raimund, welcome to our forums! Thanks for sharing your corrected set up, I am sure this will be a help to Virtavia C-17A pilots Link to post Share on other sites
