I've found this thread interesting and while reading it I've been carefully assessing what I enjoy flying most in FS9...I've decided it is my "Little Bandit" in both the wheeled and "bolt-on floats" versions. Also while I'm building seaplane bases Round the World, I go there initially in an amphibious version of MAAM's DC3 and I really enjoy those slow exploratory legs. Then, after completing a SPB, I enjoy watching the AI version of the floated Little Bandit fly in on the latest leg. When I have built all 19 bases I will fly the circumnavigation myself in the floated Little Bandit. I think all this passionate interest in GA is probably because in real life practically all my flying was in airliners and jet fighters.

Talking of "Passion"...I've been busy programming and updating and backing up my real life GPS for a little toy that I'm taking delivery of next Tuesday...It's not fast and certainly bears no resemblance to a jet fighter but it has only got two seats, four wheels 698cc of turbo and will suit me for driving around the country visiting friends and family and airshows :dancer:

I guess you are taking delivery of a Smart car Peter, you will not reget it! I had one for 3 years and regret not bringing it to here in Spain. They are a super means of transport and great fun to drive!

OFFTOPIC I'm sorry, I had one too and could fault nothing with it. Except the colour glowed more than nuclear waste :)

Back on topic.

The Hunter should be on sale in the next day or so, according to Dan.

It's out now - the cockpit looks superb and it's not too expensive.

New addition to the RAF/RN section - the Hawker Hunter ! Out of the blue, AlphaSim brings you a state of the art Hawker Hunter FS model set - no effort was spared to create the finest package of its kind. Featuring the single-seater variants F.6, F.6A. FGA.9 and Mk.58A in no less than eight texture sets, including the famous Swiss display scheme and both Black Arrows and Blue Diamonds RAF display liveries. This product has it all, including full FSX (Acceleration Pack) compatibility with bump-mapping, self shadowing (in the v-c too with SP2) and bloom effects, a custom Hunter Avon sounds package, high-detail v-c and custom animations for the pilot figure, speedbrake and even the intake / engine covers and pitot warning tags can be displayed. Carefully-researched flight dynamics provide a very accurate Hunter sim experience, an illustrated panel guide in 'Pilot's Notes' style provides all the cockpit information. The external model recreates the classic Hunter shape perfectly, the textures are highly accurate and even feature custom alpha maps for optimum reflectivity in both sims, the source textures are provided for repainters to use (.psd's). Pilot auto-movements and a correctly-animated ventral speedbrake (wheels-up use only), coupled with wingtip vortex, startup / exhaust smoke and turbine glow, all make for a highly authentic and enjoyable Hawker Hunter simulation. For FSX and FS2004 only.
Filesize - FSX : 87MB, FS9 : 101MB.
Price :approx. $46 USD, £23.50, 31.50 EUR, 52.50 AUD.

Expensive to me!!!!!
