Just Flight Concorde Professional

[DaveB]

Hi Chaps..

Just got an email from Just Flight advertising Concorde Professional for £12.99 instead of the usual £19.99 (download). Dunno if this is good, bad or indifferent Looks like it's FS9 only I'm afraid.

I believe the package features the PSS Concorde, which is FS9 only.

A MUCH better Concorde is the one from SST Sim. Currently FS9 only, but an FSX version is in the works.

I have to second that. the SSTSIm variant is stunning and it includes not just the 'everyday' Concordes, but also the prototype and preproduction airframes.

Coo-er John.. that last shot is.. well.. words fail me! :o

I wasn't suggesting that you all trot off and buy the PSS Concorde matey's.. just a heads up ;-) I don't suppose £13 is too bad for a model these days.. not even one as old as the PSS Concorde. TBH with you.. I never had much success flying this one or SSTSim. My transatlantic flights usually ended over Eire being out of balance and heading toward mother earth I'm sure I read that one or t'other had a 'virtual FE' to take care of such things but I never tried hard enough to find it. Still got the original Concorde SST boxed version with video here. I had rather more success with that and the video was great too ;-)

The SSTSim Concorde is definitely one of, if not THE most challenging aircraft in FS to master. It has some pretty comprehensive manuals and tutorials though, and I have to admit reading "Flying Concorde" by Brian Trubshaw and watching the ITVV Concorde DVD helped me a lot

I have both the SST and PSS Concorde`s on my sim, I rate both highly, I agree with all that as been said about the SST version, but the PSS as its merits the standard of the modeling is superb the flight deck panels and flight engineer`s panel show up better on my PC, it is also more user friendly they even provide you with a GPS display you can load a route in the FS2004 Flight Planner and the aircraft will follow that route with a flick of a switch, I enjoy flying both, to give a brief example the Virtual Flight Engineer does the job in silence on the PSS, on the SST the airspeed and altitude alerts are called out ,as is the talk down on Autoland , making the sim feel very realistic, only trouble is the Surrey accent, by gum !

Hey all,

You've probably all seen it, but there is this on ebaY:

I have bought a copy and am awaiting its arrival. Now you're all going to say that it's awful aren't you?

Hi,

Forgive me if I'm wrong but doesn't "add-on for Flight Simulator X Works equally well in Flight Simulator 2004" mean it's an FS2004 model which has been ported over to FSX ? Makes me wonder if this is a freeware version that someone has modded or a payware version which has been ripped and 'converted'. I can't see a developers name anywhere so will be interested to see whose version it actually is.

Regards

John

Good point john

If it works in both it can only be an FS.9/Modde FS.9 as FS.X native won't work in X

My guess is it's really just FS.9
