SIM SKUNK WORKS - FIAT/AERITALIA G91 A/R/PAN FOR P3D V5.X

SIM SKUNK WORKS - FIAT/AERITALIA G91 A/R/PAN FOR P3D V5.X

As another reviewer has stated, the installation of this aircraft is not straightforward. However, by following the instructions, it's not difficult. SSW are rather unique with their installation processes but all works well. This aircraft appears to be a very good representation of its real world counterpart. Having seen these fly in real life only a handful of times, it's always been one of those aircraft that I'd have loved to have seen more of. Both the exterior and interior models are seen to be very well presented with crisp textures seen throughout. Sound is a tad underwhelming, but this shortfall is somewhat offset by the aircrafts decent handling and "atmospherics". All in all, an extremely good buy, more so because of the very low price that it's available for at the time of this review.

I'm not going to go into a lot of detail with this review, but I will keep it simple. I've never heard of this developer before, and as such, I was very cautious, what with the cost etc. I also run P3Dv3, so I wasn't sure whether or not the model would work. But, I took the plunge and bought it anyhow, and I can honestly say that I'm glad that I did. The exterior model is very good indeed. The textures are crisp & clear and there is plenty of detail. The interior model/virtual cockpit is likewise as detailed and as crisp with the texturing. This model won't be for you if you want every switch and button to work (although a lot of them do!). It is, however, just a darn good representation of the A400. It's a joy to fly, and to me, absolutely everything works as it should. It is now one of my new favourite aircraft! Top marks to the developer, and I sincerely hope that they can produce other "not so common aircraft" for sim flyers to enjoy, at a similar standard in the future.
