  1. /images/notams/notams21/a2a1118.jpgI just wanted to say that as of yesterday, thanks to our brilliantMichal Krawczyk and Mark Smith, we appear to be out of the woods withAccu-Sim and MSFS2020. It goes to show that there is almost nothingyou can't do if you put your mind to it and don't give up. Today for the first time, I took off and performed a bunch ofmaneuvers in the air, came back with a nice flare and landed in anall-new Accu-Sim Comanche 250. All major road blocks are cleared. We were lucky, during this long dry spell of development the USmilitary has been making huge use out of Accu-Sim technology as thishas paid the bills at A2A. We have an Accu-Sim turboprop and turbojetalready on the shelf that we can use for any future airplanes, thanksto this military development along with a lot of cool avionics. So now that we have this Comanche 250 in place we can properly planfor MSFS development. Keep in mind that being brand new tech, systemsand physics, it will take longer for this first airplane, which is whywe chose the Comanche 250 since we know it so well. But once thisairplane is out the Accu-Sim production line will be in place, so tospeak. Source
  2. Accu-Sim Spitfire MKI-IIPublisher: A2A SimulationsReview Author: Alex DickinsonSuggested Price: $79.99/images/fsc/wbicons/store-buy-now-button.png /images/reviews/a2aspit/t/A2A-Spitfire-04.jpgIntroductionHow can you introduce an aircraft likethe Spitfire? What can be said about this iconic aircraft that has notalready been said? This famous airframe designed in 1936 was intended to replace theRoyal Air Force's ageing biplane fleet. Used extensively throughoutWorld War 2, it was the only fighter to be in continuous productionthroughout the conflict. The Spitfire, renowned for its incrediblehandling, has been forever loved by its pilots and naturally feared byits enemy. During the Battle of Britain, German ace Adolf Gallandapparently even told Hermann Goering that he wanted a squadron ofthem. Originally part of their Wings of Power series, the Spitfire (aswell as a few other famous WW2 aircraft) are now available on P3D V4,and V5. /images/reviews/a2aspit/t/A2A-Spitfire-01.jpg /images/reviews/a2aspit/t/A2A-Spitfire-02.jpgInstallationInstallation was quick and simple and is something I have come toexpect from A2A having owned quite a number of their models throughoutthe years. DocumentationThe 'Pilot's manual' discusses the aircraft's history as well asflying procedures. This was incredible in-depth at 100 pages long. Theformat was clear but also simplified in places so that it was veryeasy to reference pieces of data quickly. I also liked how the textstyle used and general format was that of the period. This gave thefeeling of actually reading a real vintage Spitfire manual. The second manual is called the 'Accu-sim manual', and I found thisto be more of a technical piece as it contained an enormous amount ofdetail about how the aircraft worked in the sim. It had lots ofdiagrams, pictures, and even how Accu-sim works. /images/reviews/a2aspit/t/A2A-Spitfire-03.jpg /images/reviews/a2aspit/t/A2A-Spitfire-05.jpgExteriorWhen it came to the exterior, I was extremely impressed with theattention to detail and modelling of the Spitfire (even after allthese years). High resolution textures had been used throughout andeven the smallest details seemed not to have been overlooked. Forexample, there were even visual indicators on the wings to signal theposition of the landing gear, as well as the outlines for the bodypanels and rivets. Unfortunately, despite being available on thenewer-generation P3D platforms, there was sadly no PBR or dynamiclighting effects to be seen. That being said, even with theseomissions, the Spitfire was still visually impressive! As what's now a given with A2A models, you can change certaincomponents of the aircraft, and here the Spitfire was nodifferent. Options include the ability to change the canopy design andalso substitute the propellers between a 2-blade wooden prop, or athree-blade variable pitch metal one. Other realistic features includea ground crew in which to help keep the tail down during run-upchecks, plus a starter unit for the Mark 1's and aircraft jacks. /images/reviews/a2aspit/t/A2A-Spitfire-06.jpg /images/reviews/a2aspit/t/A2A-Spitfire-07.jpgLiveriesDuring the Spitfire's life, there were 24 different variants (notincluding naval versions). In this package, A2A has modelled thefollowing early versions: Mark 1, Mark 2A, and Mark 2B. In total therewere 4 liveries (all from the Battle of Britain) and includes adescription about it accordingly, which is a nice addition. InteriorThe Spitfire's cockpit is similar to most fighters of the era andis best described as cramped. If you were on the small side, you had alittle more legroom, but for those with long legs...it was tight. However, once settled in, you get an idea of why the Spitfire wasso loved by those luckily enough to fly it. From a design layout(unlike an American fighter such as the P-40), it was much lessintimidating. This was mostly down to the way the cockpit wasdesigned. Due to the nature of the switches and gauges, learning thelayout was a lot easier than many other fighters of the time. /images/reviews/a2aspit/t/A2A-Spitfire-10.jpg /images/reviews/a2aspit/t/A2A-Spitfire-11.jpgWhen starting the Spitfire for the first time (a realistic andhighly rewarding task in itself), you are greeted by not only a lot ofnoise, but also vibrations. This greatly adds to the realism and ifyou have never experienced it before in a simulator, it really isquite something. Flight ModelWhen talking about the Spitfire, you cannot help but conjure upromantic images of its legendary flying characteristics. Loved by herpilots, I have to say that the A2A model has pretty much the sameattributes. In the air she is an absolute delight, being both gracefuland agile. She is fast with acceleration to match...no surprise reallywhen you consider her pedigree! The way A2A have managed to replicate the flight model in a sim isa testament to their skill and perseverance. No wonder A2A have boththe loyal fanbase and reputation they have...it is well deserved. /images/reviews/a2aspit/t/A2A-Spitfire-08.jpg /images/reviews/a2aspit/t/A2A-Spitfire-09.jpgHowever, whilst in the air she may be graceful, on the groundthings are decidedly different. The reason being is that the Spitfireis a taildragger and as everyone knows, that brings about its ownchallenges. When you add in the amount of power and torque of theMerlin engine, things get rather interesting to say the least! Pilotinput is paramount, and it takes quite a bit of practice to get thingsright. But being an A2A model...when you do get it right, oh boy is ita delight! SoundsThe Spitfire's Merlin engine is an audiophile's dream come true,and in the opinion of this reviewer, no other engine from WW2 comesclose to it in the sound department. Used not just in the Spitfire,but also in aircraft such as the Lancaster bomber and American P-51,the Merlin engine is a pure joy to listen to. /images/reviews/a2aspit/t/A2A-Spitfire-12.jpg /images/reviews/a2aspit/t/A2A-Spitfire-13.jpgConclusionNormally when I review an aircraft, I do hours' worth of researchto ensure I have ticked every box, but in the case of the Spitfire, itwas more like days. The experience A2A offer is quite simplyphenomenal. Even after all these years, there was nothing which mademe feel that the Spitfire was anything less than what it was almost adecade ago. Just like the real aircraft, A2A's rendition is a thingof beauty, and it seems that time has only made her more so.

    Virushawk

    /images/op-eds/virushwk/virushawk-1.jpg Virushawk By Ian Radcliffe As the social distancing and lockdownsstarted and we all began to contemplate extended time at home,planemaker A2A made their Accusim P-40 Warhawk available for free, forboth FSX and P3D. I fly almost exclusively A2A aircraft these days andhave eleven others, but this was one I had never seriouslyconsidered. With the Mustang and Spitfire in my hangar, what need hadI of another "fighter"? But the offer was too good an opportunity topass up, so I logged on and grabbed it. And boy am I glad I did. /images/op-eds/virushwk/virushawk-2.jpg For me, one of the most appealing things about A2A's planes istheir very distinct individual qualities. Every new one is a newlearning experience, a unique piece of machinery to get the hang of,and the P-40 is no exception. When first reading up about how to makeit go, I found the hydraulic system a bit intimidating; it needn't be,it's just a different way of doing things. On the first flight thetakeoff was more alarming than I expected. And I'm still working on mylandings. (I think I'm aiming for a three-pointer when the proper wayto do it is to fly it on in a tail-low wheel landing.) In the air,trimmed, it's rock steady, a joy to hand fly. The engine noise isdifferent, almost like a big auto engine. The view is exceptional. Allin all, it's a truly exciting experience. I had an Airfix model of the Tomahawk as a kid, back when I wouldrun around my room with my planes, making gnneeeowwwww noises. Itturns out that same plane is one of the color schemes in thepackage. Thanks, A2A! You made my day. /images/op-eds/virushwk/virushawk-3.jpg If it's still available for free, grab it now. If not, grab itanyway.

The aircraft is oneof the most iconic aircraft of the WWII and the D-model is probablyone of the most famous versions and often shown in movies of thatera. The D-version features a very powerful V-12 Packard V-1650-7liquid-cooled engine that uses a 2 stage intercooled superchargerproviding the P-51D with 1,490 hp at 3,000 rpms however, applying theWEP (War Emergency Power) the engine could produce 1,720 hp but onlyfor a limited amount of time. The propeller used for this monster ofan engine was a Hamilton Standard, constant speed and variable pitchpropeller with a rather huge diameter of 11 ft 2 in (3.40m). More that 15,000 P-51's were built since the first flight inOctober of 1940 and the aircraft was primarily used in service duringWWII and the Korean War and here with great success. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-01.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-02.jpgGeneral Information And Aircraft Specs for the P-51D/images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-17.jpgProduced by: North American AviationNational Origin: United StatesFirst Flight: October 26th 1940Introduction: January 1942 (RAF)Role: Fighter and Fighter BomberBuilt: 15,000+Status: Retired from military service Crew: 1Length: 32 ft 3 in (9.83m)Height: 13 ft 41/2 in (4.08m)Wingspan: 37 ft 0 in (11.28m)Empty Weight: 7,635 lb (3,465kg)MTOW: 12,100 lb (5,490kg)Power Plant: 1x Packard V-1650-7 liquid cooled V-12Propeller: 1x Hamilton Standard, Constant Speed and Variable Pitch/images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-19.jpg Max Speed: 440 mph / 383 kn / 708 km/h (at 25,000 ft / 7,600m)Cruise Speed: 362 mph / 315 kn / 583 km/hRange: 1,650 mi / 1,434 nmi / 2,656 km (w/external tanks)Service Ceiling: 41,900 ft (12,800m)Rate of Climb: 3,200 ft/min (16.3m/s)Wing Loading: 39 lb/sqft (192kg/m2)Power/Mass: 0.18 hp/lb (300W/kg)Lift-to-Drag Ratio: 14.6Purchase, Download And InstallationI purchased this add-on through the new FlightSim.Com Store and thepurchase and download went perfectly and with ease. The entiredownload was completed within a very short time due to a very goodserver and internet connection. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-03.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-05.jpgThe file downloaded was named ATS-525 and the file is a zip file of165 MB which is actually not a huge file for an aircraft of thecomplexity and quality that I was expecting. After the download wascompleted I activated the installation process which also was veryuser friendly and only took about 15 seconds to install the completefile. The installation wizard features an 'Auto-Find' the correctplatform and installation location, which you of course manually canoverride to select a specific installation location if you wantto. The version that was installed was the v18.8.27.0 but after theinstallation was completed the wizard searched for an update to theaircraft and found the v18.12.22.0 - this update is a smaller updateof additional 29.53 MB which I of course also downloaded andinstalled. After the installation was completed I opened up P3Dv4 and wentinto the virtual hangar where I found the P-51D perfectly placedfeaturing one version with three liveries - the three liveries are the'Blondie', the 'FF-064' and the 'Kwitcherbitchin'. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-06.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-07.jpgTogether with the aircraft add-on there is also installed two manuals- one is the Pilot's Manual featuring 77 pages and the other is theAccu-Sim Manual featuring 99 pages. Both manuals are created asPDF files and can be viewed/opened using Adobe PDF viewer. Both manuals contain a lot of specific information where e.g. thePilot's Manual primarily focuses on the variants included, the overallsystems, the specifications and in general how to fly the aircraftaccording to real data. The Accu-Sim manual instead focuses more onthe in-depth and detailed explanations of the engine and the systemshow they work etc. To get started I would certainly recommend taking a look at thePilot's Manual, but the Accu-Sim Manual is also a great read if youare interested in more in-depth knowledge of the P-51D. The manuals can be accessed through either the Windows Start-Menuor on this location: C:\USers\'Your User Name\Documents\Prepar3Dv4 Add-Ons\A2A /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-08.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-09.jpgOn the same destination you can also find a file named 'Tools'where the Input Configurator is placed. This tool can be used toassign functions to a joystick, throttle or similar if you do notwish to use the standard P3D assigning tool. ExternalTaking a look at the model was a very nice experience for sure. Themodel is beautiful and certainly it is a high quality model, featuringan abundance of unique detailing like the wing-shape, thebelly-air-inlet and the rather small vertical stabilizer. Everythingis created beautifully and according to real life imagery that I foundon the internet. The resemblance of the model and the real life imageswas spot on and the model absolutely features the same high qualitythat I have also found in several other A2A Simulation aircraft. The textures are high quality, multi-layer textures that providethe model with a very realistic and authentic look. The aircraft looksold and used as expected with a certain degree of wear and tear, butat the same time it also looks freshly polished and shiny. The detailing is superb and even the metal plates and the rivetsused for mounting the metal plates are nicely created and integratedinto the model providing a very realistic look. You also find anumerous number of markings and writing all over the fuselage andwings which definitely add greatly to the experience and theauthenticity of this old classic bird. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-11.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-12.jpgVarious animations are of course also added to the model like thecontrol surfaces (elevator, ailerons and rudder) but also the flapsup/down, the canopy open/close, the gear and gear suspension up/down,the rotation of the wheels, the tail wheel up/down, etc. are alsocreated beautifully. The motion is smooth and realistic and keeps thesame high standard as the model. Included are also some effects like the propeller, the lights andthe engine smoke upon startup. The propeller effect is veryrealistic and it does change a bit according to various rpm settingwhich is really super. The smoke upon startup features first a smallburst of dense black smoke followed up by white and less dense smokewhich is then blown away by the propeller. Hereafter you only seesmoke if you set the values of the engine incorrectly e.g. causing theengine to perform badly with a wrong mixture setting. Actuallyanother effect when starting up the engine is the shake-effect whichis absolutely perfect and authentic both viewed from outside andinside the cockpit. The lights are excellent and feature a clear and bright shine whichalso seems very authentic. You can also customize the load-out of the aircraft simultaneouslywith viewing the aircraft by selecting the 'Shift+Number keys'. Thiswill open up a variety of unique windows and one of these are thePayload and Fuel Manager 'Shift+4' - here you can select eithervarious bombs on the inner pylons or fuel tanks, you can also selectbombs on the outer pylons as well as to load ammunition for theguns. When you change the load-out you will immediately see the changeon the model and also see the weight difference between the variousload-outs - awesome! /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-24.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-25.jpgIf you click the 'Shift+7' key you will open up the maintenancehangar, well if certain criteria is fulfilled like being on the groundand with the engine off. The maintenance hangar is similar to themaintenance hangar of other A2A Simulations aircraft however theoptions for this one are limited to checking the engine and performinga complete overhaul - everything else is done through the Payload andFuel Manager, such as changing the oil, the coolants and other fluids,oil-type, pilot's weight, etc. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-30.jpg InternalJumping into the cockpit I now found myself sitting in a veryrealistic and authentic environment. The quality that I found in themodel is absolutely also found in the cockpit. There is no 2D cockpitfor this add-on, only the virtual cockpit, but the quality is reallysuperb so in my opinion there is no need for a 2D cockpit for thisaircraft. Looking around the cockpit I just kept on finding new details -both major details but also very tiny details that just add up andprovide the simmer with a sensational experience. E.g. the legendsthat are placed all over the cockpit and within the gauges, the steelframe for the seat, the wire that is connected to the throttle,rivets, small screws that are used to mount the various panels,etc. The textures used are high quality multi-layer textures featuringboth a clean but also a slightly dirty look meaning that there are acertain degree of wear and tear all over the cockpit environment as Iof course also expected. The degree of wear and tear is sparse and thecockpit do look newly renovated however, the wear and tear is visiblenumerous places like on the edge of the throttle quadrant and on someof the steel plates where the paint has been worn off. The wearand tear in my opinion helps creating the authentic atmosphere andcertainly improves the experience greatly. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-15.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-34.jpgThe gauges are the old steam gauges which are nicely modeled andfit the cockpit perfectly - I did notice the IAS gauge which seems tobe a modern age IAS gauge and not the original gauge, but that isperfectly okay and just supports the idea of this bird beingrenovated. The focus has certainly kept a high level to insure thebest possible experience of this classic warbird. The 3D performance works beautifully and the finish in the completecockpit environment is simply just stunning. This is absolutely anexcellent and beautiful cockpit that is fully operational and with 99%working systems, buttons, switches and levers. There are several animations included like the controls, thevarious extra levers, the needles in the gauges, the toggle switches,push buttons, canopy, etc. All animations are created with a realistictouch and feature nice smooth motions. Another animation is the panel itself - the panel shake uponstartup of the engine which is awesome and very realistic, but alsothe shake when taxiing over a rough surface or performing stalls.This animation again just adds to the experience and realism offlying this awesome aircraft. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-13.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-27.jpgThe add-on also features droppable objects like the various bombswhich can be activated directly in the cockpit - dropping a bomb willalso affect the weight of the aircraft and thereby the flight dynamicswhich I will take a closer look at later in this review. There are also a few effect in the cockpit environment such as thelighting as well as the visible smoke from the engine uponstartup. The effects are good and contribute positively to theexperience. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-21.jpgSoundThe sound set for this aircraft is an advanced and high qualitysound set featuring both a complete engine sound package as well as acomprehensive environmental sound package. The engine sound is awesome and features all aspects from startupto shutdown and all various rpm settings within. Actually you can alsohear what sounds like the engine going from max power (100%) over toWEP power, which is the extra boost the engine can get to deliveradditional thrust for a short period of time. The engine sound whenstarting up and running at idle is really authentic and makes youdream that you were actually placed inside the cockpit and ready forflight; then throttling up the sound gets louder and louder with moredepth and base which really is very exciting and gave me the goosebumps on my back when using my 7.1 surround sound setup. In regards to the environmental sound set then this sound setfeatures all sounds created by moving the various levers,clicking the various buttons and switches, etc. but also the windoutside which is very clear when the engine is at idle or even offwhen performing an emergency landing. The wind is also veryintense when stalling the aircraft which absolutely provides a morelife-like sensation of an aircraft stalling and going into a spin. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-32.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-23.jpgThe environmental sound set is also high quality, very realisticand certainly a great addition to the authentic atmosphere youexperience inside this amazing cockpit. I tested the sound set in both ordinary stereo with front speakers,also using a 2.1 setup featuring front speakers and an activesubwoofer and finally a complete 7.1 surround sound setup. The soundperformed perfectly in all tests and the sound varies nicely whenwalking around the aircraft as well as when jumping inside which issuperb. Flight Dynamics And CharacteristicsNow to the fun part which of course is the actual flight tests -No, I haven't flown this old classic bird in real life, but certainlywould love to try it one day. Therefore my opinion of the flightcharacteristics and dynamics rely on my experience flying real lifegliders, motor gliders and GA aircraft. First part is the taxi, and this aircraft is on that part verychallenging. You don't have a great forward view due to the tail-wheelconfiguration giving the aircraft a high nose position and this makestaxiing quite challenging. The best way for me was to taxi like I wasdrunk meaning going slightly left, then right, then left,etc. Performing this taxi I used the wheel brakes a lot since I didn'treally figure out if the aircraft could be controlled by the tailwheel - I don't think it can so this was great practice. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-18.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-14.jpgPerforming the engine test prior to take-off I discovered that ifyou throttle up too rapidly the engine will cough which I assume is dueto the lack of fuel reaching the engine in time. This is great and Ithink very well in accordance to real life. I also noticed that thecockpit panel had various degrees of shaking according to the rpmsetting which really is a superb detail. Now ready for take-off I throttled up to max power rather quicklywhich resulted in a strong torque with which I had severe problemscounteracting which my rudder, so in desperation I had to also applywheel brakes - this I had to try a couple of times before realizingthat the best way to overcome this issue was simply just to throttleup slowly. By changing the increase of power to a slower motion gaveme more steering capability of overcome the heavy torque. Quitereasonable when you think about it, because throttling up too rapidlyprovides a huge torque very quickly without any speed / wind-pressureon the rudder, and this changes if you increase the throttle slowerbecause you then build up speed / wind-pressure on the rudder more tocounteract the torque... When the speed started building up I could lower the nose and get abetter view and after a few more seconds I was airborne. The firstthing that I discovered was that this aircraft needs to be flown allthe time; it is very much alive and you feel all the thermals, all theturbulence and bursts of wind - I can recommend spending some timetrimming the aircraft properly otherwise you do get drained of energyjust trying to fly a straight course. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-26.jpgDuring my flights I tested if lowering the flaps would haveany impact on the stalling speed or the nose position as you wouldexpect from a real life aircraft, and of course this was a part of theflight characteristics of this aircraft. I found a difference of about20 MPH in regards to stalling speed from flaps up vs. flaps down. Alsothe nose position lowers when the flaps are lowered which again isalso superb and true to real life. On the top left of the cockpit there is placed what looks like ahorn - but I didn't get any stall warning - maybe there is a switchwhich can turn that horn on/off which could be the reason for me notgetting the stall warning. The same goes with overspeed - I am quite sure that in real lifethere is no overspeed warning in the P51 and I also didn't hear one onmy test flight, however there is actually what you could call anin-built overspeed warning and that is the fuselage and wings making alot of cracking noises. Works well enough for me! I of course also wanted to test the stall and spin capabilities ofthis aircraft as I always do when testing an aircraft. What Idiscovered with the P51 is that this aircraft likes to spin and it isnot always that easy to recover. I often experience difficultiesrecovering if I had applied engine power, and for some reason it wasmore likely to make a good recovery with the engine at idle - maybethis has something to do with the heavy torque generated by theengine... Stalling the aircraft was a superb and very realisticexperience, because you could hear the wind getting silent, the panelstarted to shake, the aircraft started to make cracking noises, therumble outside as the aircraft crossed the stalling point, the lack ofcontrol and then the loss of lift going into a spin with the volume ofthe wind outside suddenly increasing rapidly - Awesome experience andvery true to real life. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-28.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-29.jpgAfter testing my skills of stalling and spinning this aircraft Ialso went on to perform various aerobatic maneuvers. Here I foundsomething rather interesting. First I tried performing a simple loopbut I always ended up stalling the aircraft about half way around andcould not understand why. This even though I entered the loop with maxairspeed - I thought OK, then I just have to pull a bit stronger makingthe loop shorter in diameter, but that only resulted in stalling theaircraft over and over again. The reason for my troubles was that I had a more or less overloadedaircraft with full internal tanks and pilot but also a full armamentand external fuel tanks making the aircraft extremely heavy. This doesmake good sense that I experienced these problems, so when changingthe load-out to the clean or moderate weight I could now easilyperform the loop, the roll and other maneuvers. I very much like thatthe flight characteristics and dynamics are dependent of the weight anddrag of external armament because this just makes the experience morelife-like and authentic. So to be honest - on all my test flight I did not always recoverfrom the spins and aerobatics which several times resulted in a crashlanding. This however was also an experience because the aircraftwould be banged up with bent propeller and now was unable tofly. Also when re-starting the flight the aircraft now started out asI left it meaning smashed and with a bent propeller. The reason forthis is that an in-built feature for this aircraft is that theaircraft state, fuel, other fluids, propeller, etc. are as the lastflight ended hereby forcing the pilot to perform maintenance thoughthe maintenance hangar and load manager. Really an awesome detailwhich I think could be rather irritating for some simmers that justwant to get up in the air, but I like it very much. It makes you takemore care of the aircraft and how you fly it. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-16.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-20.jpgFlying the aircraft you can of course set up bomb targets, etc. butthis aircraft also features the release of armament such as a bomb,meaning that flying towards a target you can actually release the bomband by doing so the weight of the aircraft changes a bit and impactsthe flight dynamics. Awesome! This aircraft is absolutely a challenge to fly but this just makesthe experience even better I think - but landing the aircraft was evenharder. You cannot fly an MD11 type final with this aircraft because yousimply can't see enough straight ahead. I had to make amedium/high final giving me the best forward view and then whenflaring the aircraft the nose would again be so high that I couldn'tsee anything straight forward, now just hoping that the line that Ihad the aircraft on before flaring, would still be right - of course Icould keep my eyes on the left and right edge of the runway, but yes,this aircraft is also quite challenging to land. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-10.jpgConclusionTo sum up my experience with the add-on aircraft from A2ASimulations, then this is an amazing and awesome, authentic and trueto real life rendition of the classic warbird, the P-51 Mustang. The model is extraordinarily well modeled, the virtual cockpit isamazing, the quality, the textures, the detailing is superb and thisaircraft is the best P51 add-on aircraft that I have tested for anyflight simulator ever. The effort and time put into creating arealistic environment and to create so realistic flight dynamics areadmirable. This aircraft is absolutely the same high standard and thesame high quality as I have previously seen on other A2A Simulationaircraft. Awesome job! /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-33.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-31.jpgI very much like the maintenance hangar and the payload / fuelmanager and the idea that you as a simmer are forced to take care ofyour aircraft. I didn't see the A2A pre-flight inspection option as Ihave seen on other A2A Simulation aircraft - this I did miss. If itwas included and I just didn't find it, then I am sorry about thiscomment. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/a2ap51dm.jpgIf you are into flying an aircraft featuring so much realism, beingquite complicated and challenging to fly this will be a perfect birdfor you. Even more if you like old classic warbirds, then this is amust have. I absolutely recommend this aircraft to my fellow simmersand I rate this aircraft with a 4.82 out of 5 rating. Thank you A2ASimulation for this incredible awesome classic warbird - keep up thegreat work you do and I'll be looking forward to see your nextcreation.

  9. Accu-Sim V35B BonanzaPublisher: A2A SimulationsReview Author: Ray AndersenSuggested Price: $49.99-$99.99/images/fsc/wbicons/store-buy-now-button.pngIntroThe Bonanza 35 is a single engine,piston driven, four seat, low wing, civil utility aircraft built byBeechcraft since the late 1940's. The model 35 is part of the famousseries of Bonanza aircraft covering also the Model 33 and 36. The production of the Model 35 featuring the very distinctiveV-tail stopped back in 1982, but still today the Model 36 is onthe production line. The Model 33 is basically the Model 35 featuringa conventional tail instead of the V-tail and the Model 36 is astretched version of the Model 33 adding up to six seats. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b34.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b36.jpgOver the years the Bonanza 35 got quite a reputation and peoplefound that to fly the aircraft required a high skill level. There wereseveral accidents as well as fatal accidents and the aircraft becameknown as the "forked-tail doctor killer". The version tested in this review is the V35B as stated in themanual from A2A Simulations, meaning the V-tail version, so I reallyhope that I have a high enough skill level to meet the requirementsfor this legendary bird.

This was super easy and I was up and running on the web sitewithin half a minute or so. Making the purchase and thereafter the download of the aircraft wasalso easy - the store functions are very similar to the shop that Inormally use, so I found the user interface to be very familiar andvery user friendly. The download was completed with about 1.9 MB/sec which is a fairdownload speed - this meant that the entire download took about 3minutes since the zip-file for download was of 363 MB. This is actuallynot that huge a file for such a comprehensive, feature full anddetailed aircraft. The filename is 'ATS-295-Bonanza_P3Dv4_Professional.zip' and thisis the professional version for the Prepar3D v4 platform; the testplatform used is the Prepar3D v4.3. The downloaded version was thev18.9.15.1 however, during the installation I got a notice about anupdate that was ready and if I wanted to download and install thatupdate as well - of course I did; this was just about 25 MB more sothat took no time to also download and the aircraft now became thev18.9.29.0 which is the version used for this test and review. Before starting the installation process I read the 'Read beforeInstallation' file found next to the installer.exe in the downloadfolder. Basically the file gives you a heads up for what could be agood idea as e.g. it's recommended to not install the aircraft withinthe default P3Dv4 directory structure as also stated from LM - You canof course select whichever location or folder you wish but by defaultthe path to the installation folder is on your C:\Users etc. The installation itself only took about 15-20 seconds and was veryeasy - the installer was very user friendly and quickly guided methrough the very simple process. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b42.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b43.jpgThis installation also features a huge and very comprehensiveaircraft manual created as a 112 pages PDF file and featuring anabundance of specific data, information, procedures, requirements,etc. This manual I would recommend going through or at least skimmingthe most important parts before taking on the first flight. Included in this aircraft add-on is one model with four highquality liveries that are perfectly placed within the virtual hangarand to be found under A2A Simulations. Tools And ProgramsIncluded in this aircraft pack is also two smaller programs whichboth support this add-on; one is the Bonanza Aircraft Configurator andthe other is the Bonanza Input Configurator. Both programs are placedas default on your C-drive and can also be found in your Windows startmenu. C:\Users\'your specific user'\Documents\Prepar3D v4 Add-Ons\A2A\A2A\Bonanza35\ToolsThe Bonanza Aircraft Configurator is a program where you cancustomize the aircraft within certain specifics and thereby gain moreon the visual appearance as well as to add 3rd party GPS systems; thisof course will have an impact on your system performance. On your starting screen you can select e.g. the entry of the GPSwhich directs you to the sub page where you are now able to select adefault GPS, the Reality XP version or the Flight1 version - theReality XP and Flight1 GPS systems are not included in this add-on andwill have to be purchased separately before being able to addthese. You can also enter the menu of Dynamic Lights where youselect/de-select which lights that should be impacted which is awesomesince you now can control the impact on the performance in greaterdetails. The 4K is for use with the 2D panel where you can set the 4Ktexture scale from 100% - 200% and the Mirrors are the detailedvisuals for several options. Here you are also able to select thetexture size from 8 - 256 but please do be aware that the more youselect and the higher texture size, the more the performance will beimpacted - this also on high end systems flying over dense and highquality sceneries. I did my test primarily with the settings of'Enable Mirror' and 'Show Weather' with a texture size of 32 and thisI found to be a nice setting for my system still getting me a smoothand realistic flight experience. /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b16.jpg/images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b40.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b35.jpg/images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b15.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b01.jpgThe Bonanza Input Configurator is intended to be a tool forassigning various functions to e.g. a joystick or buttons/toggleswitches, etc. This is basically a standard assigning tool with anumber of functions found within the add-on and which here easily canbe mapped to various buttons on a joystick or similar device. Thistool I did not use since I do all my assigning of functions usingeither the standard P3Dv4 tool or the FSUIPC from Pete Dowson, howeverthe tool seems to be very simple and user friendly with a limitednumber of functions available. Furthermore A2A has included another feature which is theauto-search-and-install-update feature which can be found andtriggered also from the Windows Start Menu under 'A'. /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b44.jpgFor the serious sim-pilot that enjoys all aspects of flight, A2Ahas also included an awesome extra set of features using the'Shift+Number keys' - please do note that these features are onlyavailable when the aircraft is loaded and some of the features areonly available when the engine is off. E.g. the very popularmaintenance hangar which is also found for several other A2A add-onsand also the pre-flight inspection / walk-around to check and verifythat the aircraft is fit for flight. Here below are the various selectable feature windows where you canfind payload and fuel load manager, controls also featuringselectable auto-start, cold & dark start, damage setting, etc. Thereare also pilot's notes, power settings, quick radios, map and ofcourse the pre-flight inspection and maintenance hangar. All theseextra features are very nicely integrated; they are very user friendlyand absolutely add greatly to the experience of being a real Bonanzapilot. Visually I personally like the payload and fuel load manager verymuch together with the pre-flight inspection and the maintenancehangar because A2A has really put a lot of effort into making this asreal as possible for all aspects of flight as well as super userfriendly. /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b45.jpgThe 'Shift+7' keys opens up the maintenance hangar - please do notethat the hangar only opens up if the engine is off. In the maintenancehangar you are now able to perform quite detailed maintenance on youraircraft with inspection, repair or even an engine overhaul. You canalso select a specific tire type, a specific battery or even if theengine should be the IO520 or IO550. You can also add or remove the wingtip tanks and also the curtainsinside the cabin - flying the aircraft with curtains adds to therealism and experience of the aircraft but is a pain in my opinionbecause they take a lot of the view from the pilot seat over thewings. /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b19.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b28.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b21.jpgThe 'Shift+8' keys open up the window featuring the Pre-FlightInspection - this feature is absolutely a very awesome extra featurefor this add-on which also adds greatly to the realism and experienceof being a real pilot. This feature enables you to perform the walkaround of the aircraft and do the various inspections. On the featuremap of the aircraft there are a bobble for each inspection point andthese bobbles are clickable meaning that if you click a bobble youwill open up the visual of that specific inspection point - Now thatis awesome and certainly a huge plus for the serioussimmer. Additionally when you have clicked on an inspection point, younow get the inspection info of what to inspect and also thepossibility to actually do an action. For example, you can click the inspection point on the tail which nowchanges the view to the tail section and provides a shortdescription. If you click the first icon in the 'Actions' menu, thenthis action will tie down the tail. Clicking the second icon will openup the extra detailed window as seen here below, which indicates whatto look for and what to inspect. The third icon checks theconnectivity of the elevator and the mechanics behind by pressing onthe elevators up/down - this is also animated so that when you clickthis action you will see the elevators move slightly and also hear themovement. /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b27.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b38.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b05.jpg ExternalLoading the aircraft and taking a look at the model itself I foundas I also expected, a very detailed and beautiful rendition of theV-tailed Bonanza. The model features lots of unique and realisticdetails and for sure awesome eye candy everywhere I looked. /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b08.jpgEverything from the sharp and pointy spinner to the fuselage, thewings and wing roots and of course the famous and unique anddistinctive tail section is beautifully modeled and covered with highquality, multi-layer textures featuring a polished look of an oldaircraft that shows signs of wear and tear - beautiful and veryauthentic for sure. The various metal plates including all the rivets, the variousmarkings and labels, etc. are all nicely included in the textures andall this absolutely does provide a greater and enhanced visualexperience of this classic bird. The model stands out as being verytrue to real life and very authentic with a great and realisticappearance. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b24.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b02.jpgThe model also features numerous animations like door, gear andgear suspension, control surfaces (elevator, aileron and rudder),flaps, trims, etc. All animations are created very life-like with arealistic motion and it seems like A2A has really put a lot of focusin creating this aircraft as realistic as possible. As far as I knowA2A actually also had or maybe still have this aircraft in their realworld hangar, and this in my opinion increases the trust towards A2Afor really going into deep detailing for the pleasure of the simpilots. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b06.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b11.jpgSetting the focus on the effects for this model, then certainlythere are also added various effects like the lights, the propellerand the smoke when starting up the engine. There is also a light shakeeffect of the aircraft when the engine starts up but this is quicklyover when the engine is running at idle. The lights are crystal clear and feature a warm and realisticbright shine that certainly is very enjoyable viewing the aircraft atnight time. The smoke effect is only when starting the engine whichprovides a small but fair amount of relatively dense smoke which veryquickly is blown away by the propeller - if you throttle up and downrapidly and get the engine to choke, you will also experience smallbursts of smoke coming from the engine exhausts just below thecockpit. /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b39.jpgThe propeller effect is good and fair with a realistic look to itand I of course like that by increasing the rpms the propeller alsochanges visually - not much but enough for it to be good andrealistic. InternalGoing into the aircraft was certainly a very good and realisticexperience - the cockpit is a beautiful virtual cockpit completelyfilled with an abundance of details, high quality modeling, 100%working buttons, switches and systems; truly a very authenticrendition of the classic Bonanza cockpit. /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b32.jpgThe cockpit in general is very lifelike and the seats with theleather cracks and stitches are just perfect for creating a veryauthentic atmosphere. I very much enjoy that an old aircraft like thisone also shows a certain degree of wear and tear on both the outsidebut certainly also on the inside and this was exactly what Ifound. Perfect! There is no 2D cockpit included, only the virtual cockpit but thisis so well made that I think most simmers would prefer the virtualcockpit anyway. There are so many details included and the modeling ofeverything is done to perfection - down to even extremely smalldetails and then everything is hereafter covered with high quality,multi-layer, very lifelike textures that just creates the most perfectand authentic atmosphere when sitting in the seat and powering up theengine. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b10.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b25.jpgThe panel is true to real life images that I found on the internetand I very much like that all around the panel and cockpit there aresigns of wear and tear - this give character to the completeexperience. The depth performance is awesome and the finish is spoton; this is absolutely a cockpit that has had a lot of focus. Inside the cockpit I also found nummerous animations such as thecontrols (yoke and pedals), various levers, buttons, switches and ofcourse the gauges. All animations are carefully created andfeature a very realistic and smooth motion. One thing I did noticeabout the gauges was that when taxiing over a rough surface likegrass or small bumps or similar, I would expect some of the needles inthe gauges to be impacted - meaning that I would expect a needlemovement behavior as e.g. in the A2A Cherokee. What I found wasalmost perfect un-impacted needles except for the VSI which wasalready impacted by the shake from the engine at idle but also the EGTneedle showed a tiny impact which just again adds to the experience,the realism and the atmosphere of this aircraft. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b13.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b26.jpgThere are some various effects included like the light effect whichis really superb. You can control the cockpit lights in the overheadwhere you can switch on/off the white color for both left and rightside, but you can also turn on either the red or green light or both,which gives a much more soft light when flying at night thanthe whte lights. The landing light is very powerful and illuminatesthe gound perfectly with a bright shine. When the engine starts up the cockpit panel shakes heavily and evenwhen the engine is running at idle, the panel still features the shakeeffect. This shake effect corresponds nicely to the rpms meaning thatthe higher rpms on the engine the smaller the shake effect becomes -really nice, this also when just having the engine at idle whileperforming the preps before taxiing, it's just so awesome to sit in anenvironment that seems so realistic. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b30.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b31.jpgFinally there is another really awesome effect that I noticed whenflying the aircraft on a rainy day. The rain effect is really good andvery realistic - when you get into the aircraft with engine off thereis not really anything out of the ordinary, but when you start up theengine you will experience the raindrops shaking on the windshield andsuddenly the raindrops will start moving upwards due to the windprovided by the propeller. It does not stop there because when youthrottle up and accelerates down the runway, the raindrops movementupwards will also accelerate - really a superb and very realisticdetail. SoundThe sounds included in this aircraft are absolutely high qualityand authentic sounds - especially the sound of the engine. Externallythe sound of the engine is very similar to other GA aircraftavailable for P3Dv4, however with a superb idle sound for thepropeller when standing behind the wings - here you can really hearthe propeller blades cutting through the air molecules. The sound ofthe engine when sitting in the cockpit is much enhanced and isabsolutely awesome! /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b37.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b41.jpgThe sound set is very complex and provides the entire parts fromengine start, idle, rpms increasing and to engine shut-down. Even justthe sound of the engine when running at idle is superb with a veryauthentic and realistic deep rumble. Increasing the rpms alsoincreases the deep rumble which then pitches up a bit but still keepsthe powerful roar that certainly provides the simmer with a sense ofgreat power - I almost got the chills when testing this on my 7.1surround sound with the subwoofer turned up a bit more thannormal...Wow! Also included are several other sound sets such as the environmentalsounds featuring clicks when clicking buttons or toggle switchesor using the flaps. You also have the stall horn which sounds veryrealistic and when flying you can also hear the wind outside thewindow - flying faster the wind outside increases in volume but whenflying slowly with the engine at idle or with the engine off, the windis also very noticeable and good quality. I tested both the external and internal sounds in both ordinarystereo, 2.1 with front speakers and an active sub and finally alsowith my 7.1 surround sound setup - all the included sounds are createdperfectly and of a great quality and certainly represents thisaircraft beautifully with a real and authentic experience. Actuallythere are also a sound set that covers the pre-flight inspection aswell as a sound set for the maintenance hangar - these sound sets arenot that complex but provide an extra deep experience of theaircraft. Flight Dynamics And CharacteristicsThe flight dynamics was great fun to test and even though I haven'tflown this bird in real life, I am quite stunned by the effort putinto all aspects of this add-on, and here especially how this aircraftflies and behaves during various settings and weather themes. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b23.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b33.jpgThe aircraft is very challenging to fly and certainly not easy so Iunderstand why it got its bad nickname for sure. I started out with ataxi which actually is very easy to perform. The engine reacts fairlyquickly, the steering is with a quick and firm reaction, the aircraftcan turn 180 degrees on a very small radius and to top that, thebrakes are very efficient. Powering up the engine for takeoff generates quite some torquewhich of course is controllable but do be very careful when liftingoff; now you will be impacted with a heavy torque throwing the nose tothe left. If this is true to real life I am uncertain, it is really aheavy torque and I experienced it on all my test flights - maybe ithas something to do with the V-tail not being as efficient as astraight upward tail? To overcome this I found that when the nosewheel lifted off the runway I applied additional rudder to the rightside to compensate for the torque impacted when the main wheels liftedoff - this made the takeoff smoother, but wow it did take me quitesome time to master since the controls are very sensitive. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b20.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b22.jpgFlying the Bonanza was much like flying other smaller GA aircraftbut the controls are certainly sensitive and you need to plan everyturn and coordinate correctly with all controls, just like in reallife. I did a test on the secondary impacts of both the ailerons andthe rudder. When just applying the rudder as e.g. the right rudderpushing the nose to the right, the secondary impact will be that theright wing also slowly drops like if you were using the ailerons -this was perfectly simulated into this add-on but when testing thesecondary effect on the ailerons the aircraft failed. When usingonly the ailerons for a left turn (meaning without the use of therudder), the secondary impact should be that the nose would be pushedto the right (going upwards) thereby creating a very dangerous flyingposition - what I found was that applying left ailerons also gave meleft rudder. I checked the function with the auto-rudder in the P3Dmenu to see if that was activated and thereby would override thesimulation, but no, the auto-rudder was disabled. That was a smallminus on the realism. Moving on I tested the behavior of the aircraft when stalling itand whether it would or would not enter a realistic spin. My firststall test was straight up 10 degrees, flaps and gear up and throttleat idle - the result was a shake, nose drop and a spin that wasentered to the right. I now did the test once again but with the flapsand gear down instead; the result was a shake at a lower IAS which Ihad also expected, nose drop but no spin entry - the aircraftcontinued to be controllable however extremely wobbly. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b14.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b17.jpgThe next stall test was with nose up 10 degrees, 45 degree bankangle, flaps and gear up and throttle at idle. This I did to both theleft and the right and the result was a shake, nose drop and full spinentry primarily to the right even when banking to the left. Only a fewtimes I encountered a spin-like state to the left. I am not sure ifthat is realistic but it could of course have something to do with thetorque, however this was all performed with the engine at idle. Just to see if the engine speed would impact the stall I did thestalls once again but now with both 50% and 100% rpms - now the resultwas a full spin to the left instead of the right so my guess is thatthe aircraft would normally spin to the right but due to the powerfultorque, the aircraft is forced into a spin to the left. It was veryinteresting to see how the aircraft behaved under these conditions andalso a very good way to experience and learn how this aircraft fliesand where the borders for safe flight are. There are not that many chimes included and I only experienced achime/warning if I had the throttle at idle with flaps and gear upmeaning the landing gear warning. I did not hear any overspeed warningor other warnings but that might be very true to real life since thisaircraft is just an old GA. I also tested the max speed in level flight with no wind andaccording to the specs I should reach 167 KIAS and what I saw on theneedle was 168 KIAS meaning that was like spot-on. Secondary to thistest I noticed the wind outside which was low volume flying slow butdid increase greatly when flying fast - really nice and realisticdetail. A couple of other things I also tested were when lowering theflaps I would expect the nose to also lower automatically and viseversa. This was beautifully integrated into the flight dynamics andcertainly provided me for a more realistic but also more challengingflight. Coming in high for landing on a small strip you have in real lifethe option of performing a wing-glide/sideslip, but most availableadd-ons does not have this feature,however the A2A Bonanza does and itis awesome. You are able to drop altitude very fast but it is not easyand you certainly need to be 100% in control all the time because thisaircraft is a challenge to fly and performing this action requireseven more skills. Luckily I often trained in real life thewing-glide/sideslip as well as stall and spins since I did a lot ofaerobatics, so I quickly adapted to the behavior of the Bonanza. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b34.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b36.jpgLanding the aircraft with no wind is fairly easy and much like aregular GA but in windy conditions the Bonanza is very much alive anddoes require 100% focus - the flight dynamics are absolutely one of myfavorite things about this aircraft because they are so realistic andauthentic and take me back in memory of all the hours I spent flyingseveral years ago. ConclusionTo wrap up my complete experience of this aircraft created by A2ASimulations, then this is really a high quality add-on featuring asuperb and authentic rendition of the famous classic V-tailedBonanza. Not only high quality modeling, but just as much highquality, life-like, multi-layer textures showing tiny details andawesome realistic wear and tear. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b03.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b04.jpgYou have an authentic virtual cockpit and cabin area with yet againhigh quality modeling and textures, you have an abundance of uniqueand specific details and eye candy where ever you look - I see thatA2A Simulations has indeed had a great focus on all aspects of thisadd-on and they have succeeded perfectly. The sound is very realisticand provides the extra touch to the experience of the aircraft. If you like flying GA aircraft once in a while or always, then Iwill certainly recommend this aircraft to you - it has so many greatfeatures and provides you with the complete package where you are alsoable to perform the pre-flight inspection and the maintenance to makesure the aircraft does not run into failures during flight. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b18.jpgThis is one of the best GA aircraft that I have tested ever and Iwant to thank A2A Simulations for creating this awesome, authentic andrealistic classic aircraft for the flight simulation community. Youhave certainly kept your focus and high level of quality as also seenin your previous releases. Thanks and keep up the excellent work! The aircraft scored a beautiful 4.90 out of 5 - it is rarely that Isee such a comprehensive and awesome aircraft with such a level ofquality.

With PBR, new textures and materialdefinitions it was obvious that we would have to use the same workflowthat's used in modern mainstream games. I've decided to use several programs for characters - MarvelousDesigner for clothes, ZBrush for additional sculpting and detailing,Substance Painter for textures and 3ds max for lowpoly, in gamemesh. /images/notams/notams19/a2a0721/cub-3.jpgSource

Accu-Sim P-51D MilitaryPublisher: A2A SimulationsReview Author: Raymond AndersenSuggested Price: $49.99-$79.99/images/fsc/wbicons/store-buy-now-button.png /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-04.jpgIntroThe P-51 is a single engine, singleseat, long-range, low-wing fighter and fighter-bomber aircraft builtby North American Aviation since the early 1940's. The aircraft is oneof the most iconic aircraft of the WWII and the D-model is probablyone of the most famous versions and often shown in movies of thatera. The D-version features a very powerful V-12 Packard V-1650-7liquid-cooled engine that uses a 2 stage intercooled superchargerproviding the P-51D with 1,490 hp at 3,000 rpms however, applying theWEP (War Emergency Power) the engine could produce 1,720 hp but onlyfor a limited amount of time. The propeller used for this monster ofan engine was a Hamilton Standard, constant speed and variable pitchpropeller with a rather huge diameter of 11 ft 2 in (3.40m). More that 15,000 P-51's were built since the first flight inOctober of 1940 and the aircraft was primarily used in service duringWWII and the Korean War and here with great success. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-01.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-02.jpgGeneral Information And Aircraft Specs for the P-51D/images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-17.jpgProduced by: North American AviationNational Origin: United StatesFirst Flight: October 26th 1940Introduction: January 1942 (RAF)Role: Fighter and Fighter BomberBuilt: 15,000+Status: Retired from military service Crew: 1Length: 32 ft 3 in (9.83m)Height: 13 ft 41/2 in (4.08m)Wingspan: 37 ft 0 in (11.28m)Empty Weight: 7,635 lb (3,465kg)MTOW: 12,100 lb (5,490kg)Power Plant: 1x Packard V-1650-7 liquid cooled V-12Propeller: 1x Hamilton Standard, Constant Speed and Variable Pitch/images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-19.jpg Max Speed: 440 mph / 383 kn / 708 km/h (at 25,000 ft / 7,600m)Cruise Speed: 362 mph / 315 kn / 583 km/hRange: 1,650 mi / 1,434 nmi / 2,656 km (w/external tanks)Service Ceiling: 41,900 ft (12,800m)Rate of Climb: 3,200 ft/min (16.3m/s)Wing Loading: 39 lb/sqft (192kg/m2)Power/Mass: 0.18 hp/lb (300W/kg)Lift-to-Drag Ratio: 14.6Purchase, Download And InstallationI purchased this add-on through the new FlightSim.Com Store and thepurchase and download went perfectly and with ease. The entiredownload was completed within a very short time due to a very goodserver and internet connection. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-03.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-05.jpgThe file downloaded was named ATS-525 and the file is a zip file of165 MB which is actually not a huge file for an aircraft of thecomplexity and quality that I was expecting. After the download wascompleted I activated the installation process which also was veryuser friendly and only took about 15 seconds to install the completefile. The installation wizard features an 'Auto-Find' the correctplatform and installation location, which you of course manually canoverride to select a specific installation location if you wantto. The version that was installed was the v18.8.27.0 but after theinstallation was completed the wizard searched for an update to theaircraft and found the v18.12.22.0 - this update is a smaller updateof additional 29.53 MB which I of course also downloaded andinstalled. After the installation was completed I opened up P3Dv4 and wentinto the virtual hangar where I found the P-51D perfectly placedfeaturing one version with three liveries - the three liveries are the'Blondie', the 'FF-064' and the 'Kwitcherbitchin'. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-06.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-07.jpgTogether with the aircraft add-on there is also installed two manuals- one is the Pilot's Manual featuring 77 pages and the other is theAccu-Sim Manual featuring 99 pages. Both manuals are created asPDF files and can be viewed/opened using Adobe PDF viewer. Both manuals contain a lot of specific information where e.g. thePilot's Manual primarily focuses on the variants included, the overallsystems, the specifications and in general how to fly the aircraftaccording to real data. The Accu-Sim manual instead focuses more onthe in-depth and detailed explanations of the engine and the systemshow they work etc. To get started I would certainly recommend taking a look at thePilot's Manual, but the Accu-Sim Manual is also a great read if youare interested in more in-depth knowledge of the P-51D. The manuals can be accessed through either the Windows Start-Menuor on this location: C:\USers\'Your User Name\Documents\Prepar3Dv4 Add-Ons\A2A /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-08.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-09.jpgOn the same destination you can also find a file named 'Tools'where the Input Configurator is placed. This tool can be used toassign functions to a joystick, throttle or similar if you do notwish to use the standard P3D assigning tool. ExternalTaking a look at the model was a very nice experience for sure. Themodel is beautiful and certainly it is a high quality model, featuringan abundance of unique detailing like the wing-shape, thebelly-air-inlet and the rather small vertical stabilizer. Everythingis created beautifully and according to real life imagery that I foundon the internet. The resemblance of the model and the real life imageswas spot on and the model absolutely features the same high qualitythat I have also found in several other A2A Simulation aircraft. The textures are high quality, multi-layer textures that providethe model with a very realistic and authentic look. The aircraft looksold and used as expected with a certain degree of wear and tear, butat the same time it also looks freshly polished and shiny. The detailing is superb and even the metal plates and the rivetsused for mounting the metal plates are nicely created and integratedinto the model providing a very realistic look. You also find anumerous number of markings and writing all over the fuselage andwings which definitely add greatly to the experience and theauthenticity of this old classic bird. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-11.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-12.jpgVarious animations are of course also added to the model like thecontrol surfaces (elevator, ailerons and rudder) but also the flapsup/down, the canopy open/close, the gear and gear suspension up/down,the rotation of the wheels, the tail wheel up/down, etc. are alsocreated beautifully. The motion is smooth and realistic and keeps thesame high standard as the model. Included are also some effects like the propeller, the lights andthe engine smoke upon startup. The propeller effect is veryrealistic and it does change a bit according to various rpm settingwhich is really super. The smoke upon startup features first a smallburst of dense black smoke followed up by white and less dense smokewhich is then blown away by the propeller. Hereafter you only seesmoke if you set the values of the engine incorrectly e.g. causing theengine to perform badly with a wrong mixture setting. Actuallyanother effect when starting up the engine is the shake-effect whichis absolutely perfect and authentic both viewed from outside andinside the cockpit. The lights are excellent and feature a clear and bright shine whichalso seems very authentic. You can also customize the load-out of the aircraft simultaneouslywith viewing the aircraft by selecting the 'Shift+Number keys'. Thiswill open up a variety of unique windows and one of these are thePayload and Fuel Manager 'Shift+4' - here you can select eithervarious bombs on the inner pylons or fuel tanks, you can also selectbombs on the outer pylons as well as to load ammunition for theguns. When you change the load-out you will immediately see the changeon the model and also see the weight difference between the variousload-outs - awesome! /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-24.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-25.jpgIf you click the 'Shift+7' key you will open up the maintenancehangar, well if certain criteria is fulfilled like being on the groundand with the engine off. The maintenance hangar is similar to themaintenance hangar of other A2A Simulations aircraft however theoptions for this one are limited to checking the engine and performinga complete overhaul - everything else is done through the Payload andFuel Manager, such as changing the oil, the coolants and other fluids,oil-type, pilot's weight, etc. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-30.jpg InternalJumping into the cockpit I now found myself sitting in a veryrealistic and authentic environment. The quality that I found in themodel is absolutely also found in the cockpit. There is no 2D cockpitfor this add-on, only the virtual cockpit, but the quality is reallysuperb so in my opinion there is no need for a 2D cockpit for thisaircraft. Looking around the cockpit I just kept on finding new details -both major details but also very tiny details that just add up andprovide the simmer with a sensational experience. E.g. the legendsthat are placed all over the cockpit and within the gauges, the steelframe for the seat, the wire that is connected to the throttle,rivets, small screws that are used to mount the various panels,etc. The textures used are high quality multi-layer textures featuringboth a clean but also a slightly dirty look meaning that there are acertain degree of wear and tear all over the cockpit environment as Iof course also expected. The degree of wear and tear is sparse and thecockpit do look newly renovated however, the wear and tear is visiblenumerous places like on the edge of the throttle quadrant and on someof the steel plates where the paint has been worn off. The wearand tear in my opinion helps creating the authentic atmosphere andcertainly improves the experience greatly. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-15.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-34.jpgThe gauges are the old steam gauges which are nicely modeled andfit the cockpit perfectly - I did notice the IAS gauge which seems tobe a modern age IAS gauge and not the original gauge, but that isperfectly okay and just supports the idea of this bird beingrenovated. The focus has certainly kept a high level to insure thebest possible experience of this classic warbird. The 3D performance works beautifully and the finish in the completecockpit environment is simply just stunning. This is absolutely anexcellent and beautiful cockpit that is fully operational and with 99%working systems, buttons, switches and levers. There are several animations included like the controls, thevarious extra levers, the needles in the gauges, the toggle switches,push buttons, canopy, etc. All animations are created with a realistictouch and feature nice smooth motions. Another animation is the panel itself - the panel shake uponstartup of the engine which is awesome and very realistic, but alsothe shake when taxiing over a rough surface or performing stalls.This animation again just adds to the experience and realism offlying this awesome aircraft. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-13.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-27.jpgThe add-on also features droppable objects like the various bombswhich can be activated directly in the cockpit - dropping a bomb willalso affect the weight of the aircraft and thereby the flight dynamicswhich I will take a closer look at later in this review. There are also a few effect in the cockpit environment such as thelighting as well as the visible smoke from the engine uponstartup. The effects are good and contribute positively to theexperience. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-21.jpgSoundThe sound set for this aircraft is an advanced and high qualitysound set featuring both a complete engine sound package as well as acomprehensive environmental sound package. The engine sound is awesome and features all aspects from startupto shutdown and all various rpm settings within. Actually you can alsohear what sounds like the engine going from max power (100%) over toWEP power, which is the extra boost the engine can get to deliveradditional thrust for a short period of time. The engine sound whenstarting up and running at idle is really authentic and makes youdream that you were actually placed inside the cockpit and ready forflight; then throttling up the sound gets louder and louder with moredepth and base which really is very exciting and gave me the goosebumps on my back when using my 7.1 surround sound setup. In regards to the environmental sound set then this sound setfeatures all sounds created by moving the various levers,clicking the various buttons and switches, etc. but also the windoutside which is very clear when the engine is at idle or even offwhen performing an emergency landing. The wind is also veryintense when stalling the aircraft which absolutely provides a morelife-like sensation of an aircraft stalling and going into a spin. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-32.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-23.jpgThe environmental sound set is also high quality, very realisticand certainly a great addition to the authentic atmosphere youexperience inside this amazing cockpit. I tested the sound set in both ordinary stereo with front speakers,also using a 2.1 setup featuring front speakers and an activesubwoofer and finally a complete 7.1 surround sound setup. The soundperformed perfectly in all tests and the sound varies nicely whenwalking around the aircraft as well as when jumping inside which issuperb. Flight Dynamics And CharacteristicsNow to the fun part which of course is the actual flight tests -No, I haven't flown this old classic bird in real life, but certainlywould love to try it one day. Therefore my opinion of the flightcharacteristics and dynamics rely on my experience flying real lifegliders, motor gliders and GA aircraft. First part is the taxi, and this aircraft is on that part verychallenging. You don't have a great forward view due to the tail-wheelconfiguration giving the aircraft a high nose position and this makestaxiing quite challenging. The best way for me was to taxi like I wasdrunk meaning going slightly left, then right, then left,etc. Performing this taxi I used the wheel brakes a lot since I didn'treally figure out if the aircraft could be controlled by the tailwheel - I don't think it can so this was great practice. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-18.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-14.jpgPerforming the engine test prior to take-off I discovered that ifyou throttle up too rapidly the engine will cough which I assume is dueto the lack of fuel reaching the engine in time. This is great and Ithink very well in accordance to real life. I also noticed that thecockpit panel had various degrees of shaking according to the rpmsetting which really is a superb detail. Now ready for take-off I throttled up to max power rather quicklywhich resulted in a strong torque with which I had severe problemscounteracting which my rudder, so in desperation I had to also applywheel brakes - this I had to try a couple of times before realizingthat the best way to overcome this issue was simply just to throttleup slowly. By changing the increase of power to a slower motion gaveme more steering capability of overcome the heavy torque. Quitereasonable when you think about it, because throttling up too rapidlyprovides a huge torque very quickly without any speed / wind-pressureon the rudder, and this changes if you increase the throttle slowerbecause you then build up speed / wind-pressure on the rudder more tocounteract the torque... When the speed started building up I could lower the nose and get abetter view and after a few more seconds I was airborne. The firstthing that I discovered was that this aircraft needs to be flown allthe time; it is very much alive and you feel all the thermals, all theturbulence and bursts of wind - I can recommend spending some timetrimming the aircraft properly otherwise you do get drained of energyjust trying to fly a straight course. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-26.jpgDuring my flights I tested if lowering the flaps would haveany impact on the stalling speed or the nose position as you wouldexpect from a real life aircraft, and of course this was a part of theflight characteristics of this aircraft. I found a difference of about20 MPH in regards to stalling speed from flaps up vs. flaps down. Alsothe nose position lowers when the flaps are lowered which again isalso superb and true to real life. On the top left of the cockpit there is placed what looks like ahorn - but I didn't get any stall warning - maybe there is a switchwhich can turn that horn on/off which could be the reason for me notgetting the stall warning. The same goes with overspeed - I am quite sure that in real lifethere is no overspeed warning in the P51 and I also didn't hear one onmy test flight, however there is actually what you could call anin-built overspeed warning and that is the fuselage and wings making alot of cracking noises. Works well enough for me! I of course also wanted to test the stall and spin capabilities ofthis aircraft as I always do when testing an aircraft. What Idiscovered with the P51 is that this aircraft likes to spin and it isnot always that easy to recover. I often experience difficultiesrecovering if I had applied engine power, and for some reason it wasmore likely to make a good recovery with the engine at idle - maybethis has something to do with the heavy torque generated by theengine... Stalling the aircraft was a superb and very realisticexperience, because you could hear the wind getting silent, the panelstarted to shake, the aircraft started to make cracking noises, therumble outside as the aircraft crossed the stalling point, the lack ofcontrol and then the loss of lift going into a spin with the volume ofthe wind outside suddenly increasing rapidly - Awesome experience andvery true to real life. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-28.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-29.jpgAfter testing my skills of stalling and spinning this aircraft Ialso went on to perform various aerobatic maneuvers. Here I foundsomething rather interesting. First I tried performing a simple loopbut I always ended up stalling the aircraft about half way around andcould not understand why. This even though I entered the loop with maxairspeed - I thought OK, then I just have to pull a bit stronger makingthe loop shorter in diameter, but that only resulted in stalling theaircraft over and over again. The reason for my troubles was that I had a more or less overloadedaircraft with full internal tanks and pilot but also a full armamentand external fuel tanks making the aircraft extremely heavy. This doesmake good sense that I experienced these problems, so when changingthe load-out to the clean or moderate weight I could now easilyperform the loop, the roll and other maneuvers. I very much like thatthe flight characteristics and dynamics are dependent of the weight anddrag of external armament because this just makes the experience morelife-like and authentic. So to be honest - on all my test flight I did not always recoverfrom the spins and aerobatics which several times resulted in a crashlanding. This however was also an experience because the aircraftwould be banged up with bent propeller and now was unable tofly. Also when re-starting the flight the aircraft now started out asI left it meaning smashed and with a bent propeller. The reason forthis is that an in-built feature for this aircraft is that theaircraft state, fuel, other fluids, propeller, etc. are as the lastflight ended hereby forcing the pilot to perform maintenance thoughthe maintenance hangar and load manager. Really an awesome detailwhich I think could be rather irritating for some simmers that justwant to get up in the air, but I like it very much. It makes you takemore care of the aircraft and how you fly it. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-16.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-20.jpgFlying the aircraft you can of course set up bomb targets, etc. butthis aircraft also features the release of armament such as a bomb,meaning that flying towards a target you can actually release the bomband by doing so the weight of the aircraft changes a bit and impactsthe flight dynamics. Awesome! This aircraft is absolutely a challenge to fly but this just makesthe experience even better I think - but landing the aircraft was evenharder. You cannot fly an MD11 type final with this aircraft because yousimply can't see enough straight ahead. I had to make amedium/high final giving me the best forward view and then whenflaring the aircraft the nose would again be so high that I couldn'tsee anything straight forward, now just hoping that the line that Ihad the aircraft on before flaring, would still be right - of course Icould keep my eyes on the left and right edge of the runway, but yes,this aircraft is also quite challenging to land. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-10.jpgConclusionTo sum up my experience with the add-on aircraft from A2ASimulations, then this is an amazing and awesome, authentic and trueto real life rendition of the classic warbird, the P-51 Mustang. The model is extraordinarily well modeled, the virtual cockpit isamazing, the quality, the textures, the detailing is superb and thisaircraft is the best P51 add-on aircraft that I have tested for anyflight simulator ever. The effort and time put into creating arealistic environment and to create so realistic flight dynamics areadmirable. This aircraft is absolutely the same high standard and thesame high quality as I have previously seen on other A2A Simulationaircraft. Awesome job! /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-33.jpg /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/t/a2a-p51d-military-31.jpgI very much like the maintenance hangar and the payload / fuelmanager and the idea that you as a simmer are forced to take care ofyour aircraft. I didn't see the A2A pre-flight inspection option as Ihave seen on other A2A Simulation aircraft - this I did miss. If itwas included and I just didn't find it, then I am sorry about thiscomment. /images/reviews/a2ap51dm/a2ap51dm.jpgIf you are into flying an aircraft featuring so much realism, beingquite complicated and challenging to fly this will be a perfect birdfor you. Even more if you like old classic warbirds, then this is amust have. I absolutely recommend this aircraft to my fellow simmersand I rate this aircraft with a 4.82 out of 5 rating. Thank you A2ASimulation for this incredible awesome classic warbird - keep up thegreat work you do and I'll be looking forward to see your nextcreation.

  14. Accu-Sim V35B BonanzaPublisher: A2A SimulationsReview Author: Ray AndersenSuggested Price: $49.99-$99.99/images/fsc/wbicons/store-buy-now-button.pngIntroThe Bonanza 35 is a single engine,piston driven, four seat, low wing, civil utility aircraft built byBeechcraft since the late 1940's. The model 35 is part of the famousseries of Bonanza aircraft covering also the Model 33 and 36. The production of the Model 35 featuring the very distinctiveV-tail stopped back in 1982, but still today the Model 36 is onthe production line. The Model 33 is basically the Model 35 featuringa conventional tail instead of the V-tail and the Model 36 is astretched version of the Model 33 adding up to six seats. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b34.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b36.jpgOver the years the Bonanza 35 got quite a reputation and peoplefound that to fly the aircraft required a high skill level. There wereseveral accidents as well as fatal accidents and the aircraft becameknown as the "forked-tail doctor killer". The version tested in this review is the V35B as stated in themanual from A2A Simulations, meaning the V-tail version, so I reallyhope that I have a high enough skill level to meet the requirementsfor this legendary bird.

This was super easy and I was up and running on the web sitewithin half a minute or so. Making the purchase and thereafter the download of the aircraft wasalso easy - the store functions are very similar to the shop that Inormally use, so I found the user interface to be very familiar andvery user friendly. The download was completed with about 1.9 MB/sec which is a fairdownload speed - this meant that the entire download took about 3minutes since the zip-file for download was of 363 MB. This is actuallynot that huge a file for such a comprehensive, feature full anddetailed aircraft. The filename is 'ATS-295-Bonanza_P3Dv4_Professional.zip' and thisis the professional version for the Prepar3D v4 platform; the testplatform used is the Prepar3D v4.3. The downloaded version was thev18.9.15.1 however, during the installation I got a notice about anupdate that was ready and if I wanted to download and install thatupdate as well - of course I did; this was just about 25 MB more sothat took no time to also download and the aircraft now became thev18.9.29.0 which is the version used for this test and review. Before starting the installation process I read the 'Read beforeInstallation' file found next to the installer.exe in the downloadfolder. Basically the file gives you a heads up for what could be agood idea as e.g. it's recommended to not install the aircraft withinthe default P3Dv4 directory structure as also stated from LM - You canof course select whichever location or folder you wish but by defaultthe path to the installation folder is on your C:\Users etc. The installation itself only took about 15-20 seconds and was veryeasy - the installer was very user friendly and quickly guided methrough the very simple process. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b42.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b43.jpgThis installation also features a huge and very comprehensiveaircraft manual created as a 112 pages PDF file and featuring anabundance of specific data, information, procedures, requirements,etc. This manual I would recommend going through or at least skimmingthe most important parts before taking on the first flight. Included in this aircraft add-on is one model with four highquality liveries that are perfectly placed within the virtual hangarand to be found under A2A Simulations. Tools And ProgramsIncluded in this aircraft pack is also two smaller programs whichboth support this add-on; one is the Bonanza Aircraft Configurator andthe other is the Bonanza Input Configurator. Both programs are placedas default on your C-drive and can also be found in your Windows startmenu. C:\Users\'your specific user'\Documents\Prepar3D v4 Add-Ons\A2A\A2A\Bonanza35\ToolsThe Bonanza Aircraft Configurator is a program where you cancustomize the aircraft within certain specifics and thereby gain moreon the visual appearance as well as to add 3rd party GPS systems; thisof course will have an impact on your system performance. On your starting screen you can select e.g. the entry of the GPSwhich directs you to the sub page where you are now able to select adefault GPS, the Reality XP version or the Flight1 version - theReality XP and Flight1 GPS systems are not included in this add-on andwill have to be purchased separately before being able to addthese. You can also enter the menu of Dynamic Lights where youselect/de-select which lights that should be impacted which is awesomesince you now can control the impact on the performance in greaterdetails. The 4K is for use with the 2D panel where you can set the 4Ktexture scale from 100% - 200% and the Mirrors are the detailedvisuals for several options. Here you are also able to select thetexture size from 8 - 256 but please do be aware that the more youselect and the higher texture size, the more the performance will beimpacted - this also on high end systems flying over dense and highquality sceneries. I did my test primarily with the settings of'Enable Mirror' and 'Show Weather' with a texture size of 32 and thisI found to be a nice setting for my system still getting me a smoothand realistic flight experience. /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b16.jpg/images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b40.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b35.jpg/images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b15.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b01.jpgThe Bonanza Input Configurator is intended to be a tool forassigning various functions to e.g. a joystick or buttons/toggleswitches, etc. This is basically a standard assigning tool with anumber of functions found within the add-on and which here easily canbe mapped to various buttons on a joystick or similar device. Thistool I did not use since I do all my assigning of functions usingeither the standard P3Dv4 tool or the FSUIPC from Pete Dowson, howeverthe tool seems to be very simple and user friendly with a limitednumber of functions available. Furthermore A2A has included another feature which is theauto-search-and-install-update feature which can be found andtriggered also from the Windows Start Menu under 'A'. /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b44.jpgFor the serious sim-pilot that enjoys all aspects of flight, A2Ahas also included an awesome extra set of features using the'Shift+Number keys' - please do note that these features are onlyavailable when the aircraft is loaded and some of the features areonly available when the engine is off. E.g. the very popularmaintenance hangar which is also found for several other A2A add-onsand also the pre-flight inspection / walk-around to check and verifythat the aircraft is fit for flight. Here below are the various selectable feature windows where you canfind payload and fuel load manager, controls also featuringselectable auto-start, cold & dark start, damage setting, etc. Thereare also pilot's notes, power settings, quick radios, map and ofcourse the pre-flight inspection and maintenance hangar. All theseextra features are very nicely integrated; they are very user friendlyand absolutely add greatly to the experience of being a real Bonanzapilot. Visually I personally like the payload and fuel load manager verymuch together with the pre-flight inspection and the maintenancehangar because A2A has really put a lot of effort into making this asreal as possible for all aspects of flight as well as super userfriendly. /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b45.jpgThe 'Shift+7' keys opens up the maintenance hangar - please do notethat the hangar only opens up if the engine is off. In the maintenancehangar you are now able to perform quite detailed maintenance on youraircraft with inspection, repair or even an engine overhaul. You canalso select a specific tire type, a specific battery or even if theengine should be the IO520 or IO550. You can also add or remove the wingtip tanks and also the curtainsinside the cabin - flying the aircraft with curtains adds to therealism and experience of the aircraft but is a pain in my opinionbecause they take a lot of the view from the pilot seat over thewings. /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b19.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b28.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b21.jpgThe 'Shift+8' keys open up the window featuring the Pre-FlightInspection - this feature is absolutely a very awesome extra featurefor this add-on which also adds greatly to the realism and experienceof being a real pilot. This feature enables you to perform the walkaround of the aircraft and do the various inspections. On the featuremap of the aircraft there are a bobble for each inspection point andthese bobbles are clickable meaning that if you click a bobble youwill open up the visual of that specific inspection point - Now thatis awesome and certainly a huge plus for the serioussimmer. Additionally when you have clicked on an inspection point, younow get the inspection info of what to inspect and also thepossibility to actually do an action. For example, you can click the inspection point on the tail which nowchanges the view to the tail section and provides a shortdescription. If you click the first icon in the 'Actions' menu, thenthis action will tie down the tail. Clicking the second icon will openup the extra detailed window as seen here below, which indicates whatto look for and what to inspect. The third icon checks theconnectivity of the elevator and the mechanics behind by pressing onthe elevators up/down - this is also animated so that when you clickthis action you will see the elevators move slightly and also hear themovement. /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b27.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b38.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b05.jpg ExternalLoading the aircraft and taking a look at the model itself I foundas I also expected, a very detailed and beautiful rendition of theV-tailed Bonanza. The model features lots of unique and realisticdetails and for sure awesome eye candy everywhere I looked. /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b08.jpgEverything from the sharp and pointy spinner to the fuselage, thewings and wing roots and of course the famous and unique anddistinctive tail section is beautifully modeled and covered with highquality, multi-layer textures featuring a polished look of an oldaircraft that shows signs of wear and tear - beautiful and veryauthentic for sure. The various metal plates including all the rivets, the variousmarkings and labels, etc. are all nicely included in the textures andall this absolutely does provide a greater and enhanced visualexperience of this classic bird. The model stands out as being verytrue to real life and very authentic with a great and realisticappearance. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b24.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b02.jpgThe model also features numerous animations like door, gear andgear suspension, control surfaces (elevator, aileron and rudder),flaps, trims, etc. All animations are created very life-like with arealistic motion and it seems like A2A has really put a lot of focusin creating this aircraft as realistic as possible. As far as I knowA2A actually also had or maybe still have this aircraft in their realworld hangar, and this in my opinion increases the trust towards A2Afor really going into deep detailing for the pleasure of the simpilots. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b06.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b11.jpgSetting the focus on the effects for this model, then certainlythere are also added various effects like the lights, the propellerand the smoke when starting up the engine. There is also a light shakeeffect of the aircraft when the engine starts up but this is quicklyover when the engine is running at idle. The lights are crystal clear and feature a warm and realisticbright shine that certainly is very enjoyable viewing the aircraft atnight time. The smoke effect is only when starting the engine whichprovides a small but fair amount of relatively dense smoke which veryquickly is blown away by the propeller - if you throttle up and downrapidly and get the engine to choke, you will also experience smallbursts of smoke coming from the engine exhausts just below thecockpit. /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b39.jpgThe propeller effect is good and fair with a realistic look to itand I of course like that by increasing the rpms the propeller alsochanges visually - not much but enough for it to be good andrealistic. InternalGoing into the aircraft was certainly a very good and realisticexperience - the cockpit is a beautiful virtual cockpit completelyfilled with an abundance of details, high quality modeling, 100%working buttons, switches and systems; truly a very authenticrendition of the classic Bonanza cockpit. /images/reviews/accuv35b/accusim-v35b32.jpgThe cockpit in general is very lifelike and the seats with theleather cracks and stitches are just perfect for creating a veryauthentic atmosphere. I very much enjoy that an old aircraft like thisone also shows a certain degree of wear and tear on both the outsidebut certainly also on the inside and this was exactly what Ifound. Perfect! There is no 2D cockpit included, only the virtual cockpit but thisis so well made that I think most simmers would prefer the virtualcockpit anyway. There are so many details included and the modeling ofeverything is done to perfection - down to even extremely smalldetails and then everything is hereafter covered with high quality,multi-layer, very lifelike textures that just creates the most perfectand authentic atmosphere when sitting in the seat and powering up theengine. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b10.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b25.jpgThe panel is true to real life images that I found on the internetand I very much like that all around the panel and cockpit there aresigns of wear and tear - this give character to the completeexperience. The depth performance is awesome and the finish is spoton; this is absolutely a cockpit that has had a lot of focus. Inside the cockpit I also found nummerous animations such as thecontrols (yoke and pedals), various levers, buttons, switches and ofcourse the gauges. All animations are carefully created andfeature a very realistic and smooth motion. One thing I did noticeabout the gauges was that when taxiing over a rough surface likegrass or small bumps or similar, I would expect some of the needles inthe gauges to be impacted - meaning that I would expect a needlemovement behavior as e.g. in the A2A Cherokee. What I found wasalmost perfect un-impacted needles except for the VSI which wasalready impacted by the shake from the engine at idle but also the EGTneedle showed a tiny impact which just again adds to the experience,the realism and the atmosphere of this aircraft. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b13.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b26.jpgThere are some various effects included like the light effect whichis really superb. You can control the cockpit lights in the overheadwhere you can switch on/off the white color for both left and rightside, but you can also turn on either the red or green light or both,which gives a much more soft light when flying at night thanthe whte lights. The landing light is very powerful and illuminatesthe gound perfectly with a bright shine. When the engine starts up the cockpit panel shakes heavily and evenwhen the engine is running at idle, the panel still features the shakeeffect. This shake effect corresponds nicely to the rpms meaning thatthe higher rpms on the engine the smaller the shake effect becomes -really nice, this also when just having the engine at idle whileperforming the preps before taxiing, it's just so awesome to sit in anenvironment that seems so realistic. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b30.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b31.jpgFinally there is another really awesome effect that I noticed whenflying the aircraft on a rainy day. The rain effect is really good andvery realistic - when you get into the aircraft with engine off thereis not really anything out of the ordinary, but when you start up theengine you will experience the raindrops shaking on the windshield andsuddenly the raindrops will start moving upwards due to the windprovided by the propeller. It does not stop there because when youthrottle up and accelerates down the runway, the raindrops movementupwards will also accelerate - really a superb and very realisticdetail. SoundThe sounds included in this aircraft are absolutely high qualityand authentic sounds - especially the sound of the engine. Externallythe sound of the engine is very similar to other GA aircraftavailable for P3Dv4, however with a superb idle sound for thepropeller when standing behind the wings - here you can really hearthe propeller blades cutting through the air molecules. The sound ofthe engine when sitting in the cockpit is much enhanced and isabsolutely awesome! /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b37.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b41.jpgThe sound set is very complex and provides the entire parts fromengine start, idle, rpms increasing and to engine shut-down. Even justthe sound of the engine when running at idle is superb with a veryauthentic and realistic deep rumble. Increasing the rpms alsoincreases the deep rumble which then pitches up a bit but still keepsthe powerful roar that certainly provides the simmer with a sense ofgreat power - I almost got the chills when testing this on my 7.1surround sound with the subwoofer turned up a bit more thannormal...Wow! Also included are several other sound sets such as the environmentalsounds featuring clicks when clicking buttons or toggle switchesor using the flaps. You also have the stall horn which sounds veryrealistic and when flying you can also hear the wind outside thewindow - flying faster the wind outside increases in volume but whenflying slowly with the engine at idle or with the engine off, the windis also very noticeable and good quality. I tested both the external and internal sounds in both ordinarystereo, 2.1 with front speakers and an active sub and finally alsowith my 7.1 surround sound setup - all the included sounds are createdperfectly and of a great quality and certainly represents thisaircraft beautifully with a real and authentic experience. Actuallythere are also a sound set that covers the pre-flight inspection aswell as a sound set for the maintenance hangar - these sound sets arenot that complex but provide an extra deep experience of theaircraft. Flight Dynamics And CharacteristicsThe flight dynamics was great fun to test and even though I haven'tflown this bird in real life, I am quite stunned by the effort putinto all aspects of this add-on, and here especially how this aircraftflies and behaves during various settings and weather themes. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b23.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b33.jpgThe aircraft is very challenging to fly and certainly not easy so Iunderstand why it got its bad nickname for sure. I started out with ataxi which actually is very easy to perform. The engine reacts fairlyquickly, the steering is with a quick and firm reaction, the aircraftcan turn 180 degrees on a very small radius and to top that, thebrakes are very efficient. Powering up the engine for takeoff generates quite some torquewhich of course is controllable but do be very careful when liftingoff; now you will be impacted with a heavy torque throwing the nose tothe left. If this is true to real life I am uncertain, it is really aheavy torque and I experienced it on all my test flights - maybe ithas something to do with the V-tail not being as efficient as astraight upward tail? To overcome this I found that when the nosewheel lifted off the runway I applied additional rudder to the rightside to compensate for the torque impacted when the main wheels liftedoff - this made the takeoff smoother, but wow it did take me quitesome time to master since the controls are very sensitive. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b20.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b22.jpgFlying the Bonanza was much like flying other smaller GA aircraftbut the controls are certainly sensitive and you need to plan everyturn and coordinate correctly with all controls, just like in reallife. I did a test on the secondary impacts of both the ailerons andthe rudder. When just applying the rudder as e.g. the right rudderpushing the nose to the right, the secondary impact will be that theright wing also slowly drops like if you were using the ailerons -this was perfectly simulated into this add-on but when testing thesecondary effect on the ailerons the aircraft failed. When usingonly the ailerons for a left turn (meaning without the use of therudder), the secondary impact should be that the nose would be pushedto the right (going upwards) thereby creating a very dangerous flyingposition - what I found was that applying left ailerons also gave meleft rudder. I checked the function with the auto-rudder in the P3Dmenu to see if that was activated and thereby would override thesimulation, but no, the auto-rudder was disabled. That was a smallminus on the realism. Moving on I tested the behavior of the aircraft when stalling itand whether it would or would not enter a realistic spin. My firststall test was straight up 10 degrees, flaps and gear up and throttleat idle - the result was a shake, nose drop and a spin that wasentered to the right. I now did the test once again but with the flapsand gear down instead; the result was a shake at a lower IAS which Ihad also expected, nose drop but no spin entry - the aircraftcontinued to be controllable however extremely wobbly. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b14.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b17.jpgThe next stall test was with nose up 10 degrees, 45 degree bankangle, flaps and gear up and throttle at idle. This I did to both theleft and the right and the result was a shake, nose drop and full spinentry primarily to the right even when banking to the left. Only a fewtimes I encountered a spin-like state to the left. I am not sure ifthat is realistic but it could of course have something to do with thetorque, however this was all performed with the engine at idle. Just to see if the engine speed would impact the stall I did thestalls once again but now with both 50% and 100% rpms - now the resultwas a full spin to the left instead of the right so my guess is thatthe aircraft would normally spin to the right but due to the powerfultorque, the aircraft is forced into a spin to the left. It was veryinteresting to see how the aircraft behaved under these conditions andalso a very good way to experience and learn how this aircraft fliesand where the borders for safe flight are. There are not that many chimes included and I only experienced achime/warning if I had the throttle at idle with flaps and gear upmeaning the landing gear warning. I did not hear any overspeed warningor other warnings but that might be very true to real life since thisaircraft is just an old GA. I also tested the max speed in level flight with no wind andaccording to the specs I should reach 167 KIAS and what I saw on theneedle was 168 KIAS meaning that was like spot-on. Secondary to thistest I noticed the wind outside which was low volume flying slow butdid increase greatly when flying fast - really nice and realisticdetail. A couple of other things I also tested were when lowering theflaps I would expect the nose to also lower automatically and viseversa. This was beautifully integrated into the flight dynamics andcertainly provided me for a more realistic but also more challengingflight. Coming in high for landing on a small strip you have in real lifethe option of performing a wing-glide/sideslip, but most availableadd-ons does not have this feature,however the A2A Bonanza does and itis awesome. You are able to drop altitude very fast but it is not easyand you certainly need to be 100% in control all the time because thisaircraft is a challenge to fly and performing this action requireseven more skills. Luckily I often trained in real life thewing-glide/sideslip as well as stall and spins since I did a lot ofaerobatics, so I quickly adapted to the behavior of the Bonanza. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b34.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b36.jpgLanding the aircraft with no wind is fairly easy and much like aregular GA but in windy conditions the Bonanza is very much alive anddoes require 100% focus - the flight dynamics are absolutely one of myfavorite things about this aircraft because they are so realistic andauthentic and take me back in memory of all the hours I spent flyingseveral years ago. ConclusionTo wrap up my complete experience of this aircraft created by A2ASimulations, then this is really a high quality add-on featuring asuperb and authentic rendition of the famous classic V-tailedBonanza. Not only high quality modeling, but just as much highquality, life-like, multi-layer textures showing tiny details andawesome realistic wear and tear. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b03.jpg /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b04.jpgYou have an authentic virtual cockpit and cabin area with yet againhigh quality modeling and textures, you have an abundance of uniqueand specific details and eye candy where ever you look - I see thatA2A Simulations has indeed had a great focus on all aspects of thisadd-on and they have succeeded perfectly. The sound is very realisticand provides the extra touch to the experience of the aircraft. If you like flying GA aircraft once in a while or always, then Iwill certainly recommend this aircraft to you - it has so many greatfeatures and provides you with the complete package where you are alsoable to perform the pre-flight inspection and the maintenance to makesure the aircraft does not run into failures during flight. /images/reviews/accuv35b/t/accusim-v35b18.jpgThis is one of the best GA aircraft that I have tested ever and Iwant to thank A2A Simulations for creating this awesome, authentic andrealistic classic aircraft for the flight simulation community. Youhave certainly kept your focus and high level of quality as also seenin your previous releases. Thanks and keep up the excellent work! The aircraft scored a beautiful 4.90 out of 5 - it is rarely that Isee such a comprehensive and awesome aircraft with such a level ofquality.

  15. /images/notams/notams18/a2a1107/a2a1107.jpgThe rugged P-40 with its Flying Tigers shark-toothed paint schememay very well be the world's most recognized image of an American WordWar II fighter aircraft. Yet, the P-40 with all of its fame, stillremains misunderstood even today. It was called underpowered by somewho perhaps, were quick to judge and never understood its truepotential. But if you look at this aircraft, and the facts thatsurround it, you will see quite a different story. One fact thatcannot be overlooked is, when in the hands of Colonel Chennault,commander of the AVG (American Volunteer Group), his thencontroversial hit and run tactics ended up giving that group theworlds highest kill ratio which is still not matched to date. It wasnot without its flaws, but when you compare the technologies andperformance against aircraft being developed by other nations at thattime, you will see quite a remarkable aircraft. /images/notams/notams18/a2a1107/p40-1.jpgPart of the secret of the P-40 was in its rugged Allison engine andits high dive speeds. Some squadrons pushed its capabilities wellbeyond its official limits in combat. This high power matched with anair frame that held onto energy better than the Japanese counterparts,meant an experienced pilot could command the fight. He could decidewhen to engage and when to escape. When we read about Middle East andAustralian squadrons over-boosting their Allison engines, we couldn'twait to Accu-Sim this bird and experience it ourselves. This resultedin us digging even deeper into not just the function of this engine atsuch high power levels, but the sound. Additionally, other systems likethe P-40's unique hydraulics required us to take our Accu-Sim to yetanother level of detail. You may notice when a fighter raises itsgear, the gear sometimes comes up at different times. Instead of ussimply and without condition, telling the aircraft to raise the gearone leg at a time, we decided to dig deeper and create the entireunderlying system, allowing whatever behaviours be the result ofactual systems at work. In fact, this is the philosophy behindAccu-Sim from the start. Build it right, and enjoy theexperience. /images/notams/notams18/a2a1107/p40-2.jpgWhen looking to the construction, the newest modelling andadvanced material-making techniques results in an aircraft that youcan just spend not just minutes but hours admiring the beauty of theshape and look of the aircraft. Together, with professionally recordedsounds and physics, the end result is the sense of having a complete,real, majestic, raw, flying machine stuffed inside your computer. Wehope you enjoy your new beautiful bird, and hope you learn to fly andtreat her well. Purchase Accu-Sim P-40 For P3D v4

  18. /images/notams/notams18/a2a0915/a2a0915.jpgThe V-tail Bonanza was built from World War II fighter technology,which was designed for highly trained professional pilots. And likemost Warbirds, the Bonanza want so fly fast, all the time. Unlikegeneral aviation aircraft that were developed in later years to havebenign flight characteristics, the Bonanza inherently has all of thechallenging qualities of the World War II fighter. From my point ofview, flying a Bonanza is just like flying a Warbird. It rumbles,shakes, rattles, is heavy and can bite the low time pilot in a heartbeat. Therefore it's this writer's opinion that the new pilot shouldapproach flying a V-tail Bonanza exactly the same as approaching anaircraft like a P-51 Mustang. The V-tail Bonanza, like the Warbird, isdesigned for experienced pilots who take the time to study and fly andoperate such an aircraft with organization, patients, andpreparedness. /images/notams/notams18/a2a0915/bonanza-1.jpgFor those pilots who do approach the V-tail Bonanza with therespect it deserves, it will reward the pilot with an experienceunlike any other aircraft in the general aviation fleet today. It isfor this reason the V-tail Bonanza still stands alone today, as it didon the first day it was introduced to the public. We hope our work on this aircraft meets and exceeds all of ourcustomers expectations, and also hope this aircraft delivers not weeksor months, but years of excitement, wonder, surprise, and the mostcomplete simulated aviation experience to date. Thank you to all ofour customers for allowing us to pursue our dreams, and hopefully helppass our dreams onto you too. /images/notams/notams18/a2a0915/bonanza-2.jpgFeaturesAircraft DNA technology re-creates actual engine and airframe vibrations.V-tail physical modeling captures the character of this classic aircraft.New analog gauge physics delivers a living cockpit unlike ever before.Install a 285 Hp or 300 Hp Continental engine in the maintenance hangar.A true propeller simulation.Experience the world's most recognizable high performance general aviation airplane.Hand towing.Immersive pre-flight inspection system designed by pilots while operating the actual Bonanza V-35B.Electric starter with accurate cranking powerDynamic ground physics including both hard pavement and soft grass modeling.Primer-only starts are now possible.

  19. /images/notams/notams18/a2a0831/a2a0831.jpgIn theirforumsA2A Simulations has announced the release of the Accu-Sim P-51Mustang in separate civilian and military versionsfor Prepar3D v4. They describe the Mustang as follows: The Accu-Sim P-51 Mustang is here finally in its P3Dv4guise. Back in 2004, we released a P-51D for Microsoft FlightSimulator 9 that used a flight modelling process known as ¡°AbsoluteRealism.¡± A lot of characteristics were being experienced for thefirst time in flight simulation. If you flew flight simulators, youwere used to the old ¡°yank and bank¡± as most flight simmers held theposition that aircraft really didn¡¯t spin. This was largely because,back then, developers were largely programmers, with no flyingexperience. Even today, while it¡¯s getting more common, it¡¯s stillrare to find a developer who actually has even taken the controls of areal aircraft. /images/notams/notams18/a2a0831/military-1.jpgToday, A2A has the wind at our back, with Accu-Sim helping to bringserious aviators and simulation together. However, the industry as awhole hasn¡¯t really budged that much as people are discovering thatit¡¯s not enough to be a pilot, or even a highly experienced pilot. Ittakes an entirely different skill set to be able to observe,translate, and re-create the experience. It¡¯s not being a pilot,aeronautical engineer, or even a highly skilled aircraft modeller thatmakes the difference. It¡¯s the combination of "all the above" with,perhaps most importantly, a relentless drive to re-create the mostbelievable experience possible. /images/notams/notams18/a2a0831/military-2.jpgEven if you have never flown an aircraft before, you as a livingperson with an inherently deep sense of what is right or wrong in thephysical world you live in. You touch things, see things, and hearthings every minute of every day. So trust your instincts, because, ifit doesn¡¯t feel or sound right to you, it probably isn¡¯t right. Also,in the real world, actions create lasting results, both good andbad. There are consequences everywhere inside of a cockpit, especiallya high performance, propeller-powered, combustion drivenaircraft. /images/notams/notams18/a2a0831/civilian-1.jpgThis is where the persistent aircraft makes all the difference. Inthe real world, you don¡¯t get a fresh new aircraft every time youstrap yourself into the cockpit. The aircraft is a physical machinethat exists in the world. If your aircraft was pulling to the rightwhen you parked it, it will still be pulling when you taxi to therunway the next day. When things happen in a simulated world as youexpect in the real world, you start to treat it as if it is just that,real. With lasting results, wrapped inside the newest modelling andadvanced material-making techniques, you will have an aircraft thatyou can spend not just minutes, but hours admiring. /images/notams/notams18/a2a0831/civilian-2.jpgTogether, with professionally recorded sounds and physics, the endresult is the sense of having a complete, real, majestic, raw, flyingmachine stuffed inside your computer. And we hope, you don¡¯t justtreat it like any aircraft, but rather like "your" aircraft. We hopeyou enjoy your new beautiful bird, and hope you learn to fly and treather well.

  20. /images/notams/notams18/a2a0615/spitfire-1.jpgThe Supermarine Spitfire is one of the truly legendary aircraft,not just of World War II, but of all time. A brilliant design, thebasic Spitfire wing and fuselage were able to be refined and improvedover and over again into many different configurations during thecourse of World War II, and each excelled in its own right. The Spitfire was designed by R. J. Mitchell, an aeronauticalengineer of stellar talent who had previously designed such aircraftas the Supermarine S6B, which won the Schneider Trophy in1931. Borrowing from the developments of others, including thelow-wing, monocoque design which came from the United States, Mitchellcrafted a superb basic design which stands to this day as one of thegreatest piston fighters in aviation history. Mitchell envisioned alight, maneuverable craft with low drag, elliptical wings, and a broadperformance envelope. The result was the Spitfire, a capable, lethal,yet forgiving aircraft that ultimately proved more than equal toanything the Germans could throw at it, including the vauntedFocke-Wulf 190. /images/notams/notams18/a2a0615/spitfire-2.jpgThe Spitfire had a number of design characteristics which set itapart from other contemporary fighter aircraft. The Merlin engine, theelliptical wing, the well-harmonized controls, and the versatile wingplatform all worked together to create a package that was perhapsunmatched in terms of its immediate effectiveness and its potential tobe developed further. Unlike the Japanese Zero, which was obsolete by1943, the Spitfire was just coming to its prime. Chief among thefeatures that set the Spit apart from other aircraft was its wing,which served multiple purposes. The elliptical planform and relativelybroad root chord allowed a thinner airfoil section, reducing dragwhile preserving lift, which led to a very low wing loading. Thisincreased top speed, preserved a low stalling speed, increased theservice ceiling, and provided excellent low-speed agility. But thebroad wing chord also allowed the convenient fitting of formidablearmament such as multiple 20mm cannon and heavy machine guns. The Spitfire last saw combat in 1948 during the Arab-Israeli war,where Spitfires from both sides were pitted against one another. Butthe honor which will always distinguish this singular aircraft is itssuperb service during the Battle of Britain, where it _ along with theHawker Hurricane _ helped to fend off German designs for invasion ofGreat Britain. For that, it will always be remembered. /images/notams/notams18/a2a0615/spitfire-3.jpgWhat Is The Philosophy Behind Accu-Sim?Pilots will tell you that no two aircraft are the same. Even takingthe same aircraft up from the same airport to the same location willresult in a different experience. For example, you may notice one dayyour engine is running a bit hotter than usual and you might just openyour cowl flaps a bit more and be on your way, or maybe this is a signof something more serious developing under the hood. Regardless, youexpect these things to occur in a simulation just as they do inlife. This is Accu-Sim, where no two flights are ever the same. Realism does not mean having a difficult time with yourflying. While Accu-Sim is created by pilots, it is built foreveryone. This means everything from having a professional crew thereto help you manage the systems, to an intuitive layout, or just theability to turn the system on or off with a single switch. However, ifAccu-Sim is enabled and the needles are in the red, there will beconsequences. It is no longer just an aircraft, it's a simulation. /images/notams/notams18/a2a0615/spitfire-4.jpgFeaturesLightweight, powerful and maneuverable.As with every A2A aircraft, it is gorgeously constructed, inside and out, down to the last rivet.Designed and built to be flown "By The Book".Custom Cockpit Systems and Gauges.Visual Real-Time Load Manager, with the ability to load fuel and stores in real-time.Naturally animated pilot.3D Lights 'M' (built directly into the model) with under-wing landing light than can be turned on, deployed, and retracted and fully functional recognition lights.Pure3D Instrumentation now with natural 3D appearance with exceptional performance.Sound engineered by A2A sound professionals.Oil pressure system models oil viscosity (oil thickness).Authentically modeled pneumatic system.In cockpit pilot's map for handy in-flight navigation.Auto-Mixture that actually performs as intended.
