VIRTUALCOL - EMBRAER E190-195 REGIONAL PACK FSX P3D

VIRTUALCOL - EMBRAER E190-195 REGIONAL PACK FSX P3D

Very impressed with this product! VirtualCol continues to amaze me with their progress of each product they release! This is by far, significantly better than their previous versions of their E-Jets v1 and v2. Textures look great inside and out, implementing their features of separated landing lights and windshield wiper animations as in previous products released in the past years. I've been keeping track of this product for over half a year now, and been checking up on it daily to see it's progress. Happy to say, I am not disappointed at the release. $21 USD for this aircraft or $12 if you've previously purchased the old version of this series, not a bad price at all. The only thing I found odd, was while the product was in development, it mentioned an Embraer Lineage 1000 to be released as well, but it wasn't included in the final product; shame that the corporate/business version of this plane never made it and was scrapped at the last minute. Still a very enjoyable plane however and like with every VirtualCol product, it's easy on the frames! Flying into busy areas such as Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, etc is much smoother with VirtualCol planes, and that has always been a staple to their products. Also wanted to point out that this is the first VirtualCol plane that has wingflex! Very neat feature added and the first for VirtualCol products! Looking forward to the future releases of their products as always; and can't wait for the new innovations and features they'll add next to their upcoming products!

VIRTUALCOL - DORNIER 328 REGIONAL PACK FSX P3D

VIRTUALCOL - DORNIER 328 REGIONAL PACK FSX P3D

Another Superb product from VirtualCol! For $17USD/14EUR, this product is priced well for what you get. VirtualCol products are known for being very frame friendly; which for me and many other people who don't have an expensive computer, is a lifesaver (Especially flying into places like KLAX and KJFK). I had the old Fairchild/Dornier 328-110 and 328JET from VirtualCol, and I can say without a doubt this new version blows it out of the park; much like their SAAB 2.0 Regional Pack. I mostly fly corporate jet/private aircraft for my flight simulator, and I flew the Dornier 328JET around a lot. Happy to say it's even better with this new version! Much better detailed cockpit, textures, and lighting compared to the last product. VirtualCol has been implementing animated windshield wipers w/rain and snow effects since the release of their CRJ Series pack. Like the SAAB 2.0 Regional Pack, the last product released by VirtualCol, it also offers new separated landing lights; which VirtualCol has started doing to their most recent products. Of course, with the rest of VirtualCol Products, it's NOT study-level; has a basic navigation and uses the default GPS system. Overall though, I'm very happy with my purchase! This is such a fun turboprop and jet to fly around in the flight sim; I'd heavily recommend it to anyone who's looking for a good regional aircraft to add to their fleet to fly around and have fun with!

SKY SIMULATIONS - MCDONNELL DOUGLAS DC-9 P3D

SKY SIMULATIONS - MCDONNELL DOUGLAS DC-9 P3D

Great product! Highly recommended!! Fairly priced for the amount of models included. Free liveries on website & easy-to-use convenient installer. This troubled me a bit, but if you're unable to move the flaps or spoilers lever, make sure you turn on HYDRAULICS on the first officers side, down by the center console. Good customer support. Happy Simming ^^ Tested and works in Prepar3D V3.4.22.19868
