Personally, I can't recommend this payware plane. Why? First of all, for 30 dollars you get much more graphically and system accurate and better modeled airplanes that reach study level. This airplane is only made to do a small visual flight round. The navigation via VOR works, but it is not possible to catch a radio beam to follow the exact radial (although it is described in the manual). Therefore it is not possible to simulate accurate long distance flights without using the MSFS map. Unfortunately, the sound also leaves a lot to be desired. In some engine power levels, sound tracks overlap so strangely that the speakers or headphones start to creak. Also, the engine sounds are much too quiet in the cockpit. The modeling of the aircraft is very poor and really just looks like a converted model from another flight simulator. The hull looks very washed out and not detailed. The instruments do not have any luminescence but are only illuminated with a yellowish light from behind. I don't know how the lighting was in the real plane, but for a night flight a more atmospheric lighting with instrument luminescence would have been much nicer. Engine gauges are also missing in the cockpit (the engineer place was not modeled). So monitoring the engine is limited to RPM and manifold pressure. I like historical war planes very much and was happy to finally be able to fly one. Meanwhile I would have rather invested the money in the upcomming Lancester from Aeroplane Heaven. In my opinion they are trying to make money with enthusiasts for such planes. What is offered is extremely little. Maybe they should have paid less attention to opening 100 windows in the cockpit and programmed system depth without bugs. Unfortunately it is no fun to fly the plane. If it were offered for 15 dollars, you could tolerate many problems and overlook them, but not for such a price. The Concorde, for example, was programmed by only one person, but offers three times the system depth for almost the same price (and much better modeling). What good can I say? The cockpit is very clean but nicely detailed (in the front). The flight dynamics feel heavy and fitting to the plane. The sound of the engine noise is in itself also appropriate. The autopilot works very well. No problems or loss of performance in VR. Good documentation for the aircraft. The visible bombs under the bomb bay doors are also great, great that you can drop (hide) them. That's it for now. Anyway, thanks for this plane and I hope for updates soon to be able to put my trust in other products from you soon. For everyone else, wait until the plane has been updated or for another programmer who invests a little more work for the money he charges.
