This tandem beast has finally been simulated to a very impressive level. The thing that really sets it apart from most trainers is the strange fuel management system. It feeds the engine from only the main tank and when that main tank gets low you must pump fuel from the other tanks one by one until each is emptied before using the next tank or you can easily end up venting fuel rather than using it. This makes for some possibly dangerous situations and running out of gas way before expected. Just like the real T33! While this fuel management does require near constant attention it also add an immersive element not typical of the type. This plane should be easy to overheat but that’s not simulated very well, and I’ve not been able to murder the engine yet.
The smoke is nice but the trail it leaves is too short IMO.
The aircraft does behave according to online specs very similarly and is a joy to fly.
The cockpit looks just like real world photos for the most part. Same with the external modeling.
It certainly sounds nice through all phases of flight including stress sounds during extreme aerobatics.
Overall Inibuilds really pulled off a very cool model of the classic T33.
I’m really happy with this purchase and recommend it highly.
