Description

Known as the absolute quintessential flying boat, the majestic Boeing B314 Clipper is an unmistakable icon of the flying boat era. Foynes, Ireland, well-known for its claim to fame for being the birthplace of Irish coffee during this time, served as an aviation hub between North America and Europe, and with the highly anticipated B314 from PILOT’S, virtual pilots too can now recreate the many Atlantic crossings that made the fleet of Pan Am Clippers famous.

Although none of the original 12 Clipper aircraft were preserved, the inspiration to create this PILOT’S study level representation of the B314 is to allow this majestic flying machine to yet again take to the skies, even if just to the virtual skies!

An interesting piece of history, the B314 is thee classic flying boat of the 1940's and what a unique experience it is to fly it. I've been wanting to buy it for a while, I finally got when it was on sale a couple months ago and I'm glad to finally own it. Ctrl + E does not work on the Pro version of the plane so you need to learn the startup procedures to get it up and running. It does however come with a startup "cheat sheet" that will have you ready to take off in no time, took me maybe 15 minutes of reading to memorize it and now I can have all engines running in less then 10 minutes. The other manuals are a really good read, especially if you're interested in learning the history of the aircraft and the people that flew it back in the day. The texture work is decent, inside and out, the flight physics and behavior in water all feel good and pretty realistic and the sound set is good. Also if your next to shore you can press Shift + P and a tug will appear and pull the plane up on to shore, press again and it will lower you back in the water. Overall it's a lovely aircraft to add to your aircraft collection, especially if you love unique, vintage aircraft like I do. It's well worth the full price imo even though I got it on sale. Buy it, you won't be disappointed.

A truly legendary and beautiful historical seaplane. PROS: Stately movement Realistic Behaviour Amazing Detail Great depth of systems simulation Great Sounds CONS: Sperry Autopilot doesn't really hold attitude and heading Engine start up doesn't always work for all engines and one ends up doing the CTRL E to strat up all engines Cockpit is quite dark That's only after a couple of flights, I am sure that I will learn more as I use it.
