John Venema Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Nice shots Heiko; I'll get this in January - spent my monthly FS budget already. Quick question - will she land at Warnervale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butch Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Awesome shots Heiko, I've been waiting for this plane for sometime now... I am so excited its finally out. I'll be getting mine tonight, you can expect quite a number of paints from me for this plane... and I feel at least a couple of HD's would be appropriate. I hope you like them looking used! JV @MTOW - take off 948 and landing distance is 725 meters, to give everyone an idea Lord Howe is 886 so it will fit nearly anywhere. ;D Cheers, Butch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heiko Glatthorn Posted December 17, 2008 Author Share Posted December 17, 2008 Thanks for your nice comments guys . The link: http://www.flight1.com/products.asp?product=f1mustang Can't wait for your beautiful repaints ! John, i didn't try it yet to land at Warnervale (a job for today), just made some approaches at Coffs to get a 'feel'. But as far as i can tell it will be no problem at all. You come in nice and slow with that one. Not sure about the take off - how long is the runway there ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyberpilot Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Great pix Heiko. A few quick questions. What are the frames like, compared to say the lds 767? What sort of gps/fms navigation system does it have? How does the aircraft handle? What's the sound file like? Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krono Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Hi I bought the plane last night and also went for a quick run around Coffs and YMML to see what the frame rates were like. To tell the truth I couldnt see any dissernable difference to say the fsx mooey. As for handling,,, easy, smooth extremelly responsive, easy to taxi on the runway and for tight turns when you start in too small a park in a GA area . Also extremelly hard to get out of a spin if you do something stupid with the engines throttled down too low. THe cabin has full glass and is extremlly easy to navigate around. The manual that comes with the plane is also very compthensive... I hope that answers a few. One day I wil learn how to send in decent screen shots.. oh well there are so many others that do a good job at that. Oh and the download was only a matter of a minute Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyberpilot Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Thanks Ken. Much appreciated. Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heiko Glatthorn Posted December 17, 2008 Author Share Posted December 17, 2008 Yes, like Ken mentioned, the FPS impact is not that big (sure depends on the individual PC). I don't have the 767, but i would compare it with maybe the DA Cheyenne. When you follow the link to Flight1, you can download the manual - this will give a perfect idea about the systems. It handles IMO very well. There is this typical high pitch airliner noise inside (what is that, the aircon ?) which is a little bit too loud (but probably authentic). Maybe it can be turned down with a cfg tweak. Everything else is fine. I really like the sound when you flip a switch or work on the Garmin and AP.

cyberpilot Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Thanks Heiko. Sounds like a pretty sophisticated product. Guess I'll have to bite the bullet and buy it. Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the shorter ones it will have a very interesting pucker factor to get it in... Thanks for that link, I did do a search in the usual spots as well and your right, 99% of them are simply populated with those swishy things. Fortunately FS is merely an abstraction of reality and our imagination is the limit, I've never let reality get in the way of a cool scheme concept. I think BHP will the first scheme... But not before we finish our project. Cheers, Butch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tennyson Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Thanx Heiko. Those are fantastic shots of a fantastic aircraft. I'm sure sold. I have to wait to Friday, though. I'm afraid I used up all the bandwidth this month and am busted back to dial-up (i'm using 60gb per month!). I used to fly the little Falcon in FS9 and it was treat to fly but no where near as detailed as that beauty. Added to all that, if AC does some of his magic with a few paint jobs, what more could a man ask for Xmas......Woohoo! Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tennyson Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Sorry Butch, wasn't giving you the creds too, mate. I hope you and your offsider can do another beautiful High def for this little beauty. It's one of the reasons I bought the Carenado. And I used to love flying 737's....hahaha Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mithrin Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Fourth and fifth from the bottom up are stunners. Great shots altogether though this isn't really my plane! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pphibbs Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Hi Guys, Love your shots Heiko. I've just returned from my cruise to NZ and received my email from Flight 1 that my Mustang was ready to be picked up (went through the preorder process). I eagerly downloaded it and spent most of yesterday arvo enjoying FTX and REX from a higher perspective. LOVELY AIRCRAFT! I'm now coming to grips with the support documentation, so I can fly it as close to realistic as possible. By the way, NZ is such a magnificent place scenery wise. John and the guys would find it a satisfying challenge and as it's much smaller than the Australian continent, I imagine it would be easier to put together. I still love "low and slow" but it's nice to mix it up with other aircraft types to make things interesting. Regards, Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
