WOW.. another Cessna!!

I'm sure it'll be outstanding

I'm sure it will be superbly modeled and simulated. Just wish they would put their skills into something interesting!
Still, I'm sure the A2A fans will be wetting their knickers over it.

T6 or T-33 OK?

cheers,
Lewis

[DaveG]

I rather have the Spit MkV, but I'll take the T-33

[DaveB]

A T-33 would be nice.. a T6 too.. as long as it was North American and not Beechcraft

Weren't they working on an F4 Phantom or am I hallucinating? Seems like forever ago.

[DaveG]

They were planning a Phantom, and an F-104 as well, as a test bed for the F-4 development. I think the T-33 is meant to be the first step in developing an Accusim jet engine model. No idea if that is still the plan, or if GA has taken over somewhat. GA probably sells better to the masses, and it's easier to get flight time in the real deal for dev purposes.
Oh for an Accusim Hurricane, Lancaster, Mosquito....etc

Well I certainly am wetting my knickers but that's an age related thing, not A2A. The T-33 is my most anticipated aircraft since the Aerosoft Catalina and Iris Vulcan - I can't wait to get hold of it. The T-6 ? The Texan / Harvard is not a real-world aircraft that I'm much interested in, but I think an A2A model would change that. As for the Cessna Skylane...I'll get it, but my GA-category simming is focused in their superb Cherokee at the moment and I don't want to get diverted from it right now. I've yet to try out their B-17 and Stratocruiser in P3Dv2.4 - I hope that if there are any incompatibilities, A2A will look into rectifying them.

Anyway, A2A is in a class of its own and may they go from strength to strength. Any release, even another Cessna, is a red letter day in my book.
