  • Description

    The Electric Lightning is not an easy aircraft to fly. It’s complex and full of systems you must manage without the aid of modern electronics. Landing especially is hard as the landing speed is awfully high and there are many things you must check. Aircraft of this type are rare for flight simulators and we feel the Lightning fills a niche that needed filling.

    The T5 training version is one of the very few supersonic aircraft with side by side seating. If you like your aircraft very fast and very loud this interceptor will be perfect for you!

    Wow! This is really cool. I am one of those Cold War military aircraft lovers and seeing this unique plane available I had to have it. It is indeed a special plane. Loud, fast and fun! The visual models are amazing in and out. So far it seems like everything’s working just fine. Took a while to find a well hidden radar on/off switch but I did after much cursing. It’s not all that hard to fly even though it requires a high speed landing compared to others of the type. The chute helps but 8000 feet are usually needed. Just a great plane to add to any virtual hangar. Runs very well on FSX Steam Win10 3.2 ghz intel i7 16gb ram, no dedicated graphics card And runs great with my UHD630 integrated gpu. No FR drops until flying into a heavy add on city like LA. But other add on scenery like Cardiff or Rammstein don’t hurt FR at all. Generally I have medium to medium high scenery related settings and no probs to report. Totally worth picking up.

    Excellent addition to the already excellent single seat Lightning. A seriously fun and challenging aircraft to fly, and the best of all it works. No unpleasant CTDs as with other similar military aircraft from other developers, this actually works. And it has fantastic crisp textures and frightening roaring engine sounds.

    I am really into cold war era aircraft and seeing there are not many to choose from they are rare to find. Not really interested until I watched some YT vids on it. Quick impression. Early FSX even Fs2004 bland vr pit but its got that very busy layout we crave and all appears to be there. Never read the documentation, just some quick flights so its not so systems deep that jump in and fly need to worry.Full burner,point the nose up and get to 20 grand quick.Sucks fuel worse than a 60s muscle car. Fun to fly and not nearly as difficult as expected. All around well done, good sounds, believable flight model. Easily worth the $20. Compared to today's payware, a 3 star for the cockpit. Another star for not for not doing another airliner or GA aircraft but something off the beaten path.
