John Lovell Posted June 2, 2012 Author Share Posted June 2, 2012 Oh yes.. Absolutely!.. Before Rex Ess I never bothered with de icing. Much to my misfortune, I was climbing through the clouds, lost my instruments completely.. Wings became iced, plane didn't know how high I was, airspeed etc.. Stalled and crashed.. Then realised with Rex Ess gives a real feeling of all the elements. I had forgot to put my pitot heating on and it froze over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only experienced icing once with the Katana... maybe I always had good luck or did handle all system properly (which I am really not that convinced about ) but to be honest: I wish I'd have some simulated (only) "Icing-experiences" more frequently to get familiar with situations like these - especially now with REX ESSENTIALS available! So - could You please let me know what Add-On You used? Thank You very much in advance! All the best my friend and happy flying, Christoph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the best my friend and happy flying, Christoph Hi Christoph... really nice comments my friend.. thanks Yeah, REX Ess really does knock you back with realism.. and although stalling and crashing should never be a good thing, I was quite excited when it happened to me, especially from a frozen pitot tube! The aircraft this happened to was the Carenado Beachcraft Bonanze. One of my most used planes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The aircraft this happened to was the Carenado Beachcraft Bonanze. One of my most used planes Hi John! Thank You very much! ... the Bonanza - i see, i see... damn though i don't have it in my hangar, but i will try fiddling around with some Icing as soon as i have REX-Ess. on my HD and within FSX (just wait for the OverDrive package) and some other plane then! I am sure to find one for testing it all out ! But for now: Thanks a lot again John for sharing this great screenshot and info here! Have some great flights, Christoph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
