VFR_Steve Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Hi everyone, I thought I'd share a comparison between a real flight I've done recently in a nearly new Cessna 172 and the A2A version. It's quite remarkable how authentic and convincing flight simulation has become, not just aesthetically but capturing the feeling of 'being there'. I can say quite confidently say that the A2A 172 is every bit a real 172! Thanks for looking folks!

azzaro Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 The line is indeed becoming very blurry! At least visually, we're getting awfully close to reality. — Bob [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] i7-7700 3.6GHz / GTX1660 6GB / 32GB RAM / 49" Samsung CHG90 / WIN10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexczarn Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 We use the A2A C172 for ground sim training; ridiculous how far FS has come in it's time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

okbob Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Steve, I, too, cannot see the pix. First tried in Chrome, then I tried Windows Explorer. But regardless, it is good to hear that that A2A airplane flies like the real bird. Cool beans, and thanks for your post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
