The A2A Simulations Community

I hope that A2A one day will creat a modern twin propeller aircraft, a modern vfr-aircraft with accu-sim. I have not a lot of aircraft's in my Fsx-hangar, a reason to that is that I got all the Accu-sim aircrafts and they are so much better than any other I have tried, so since december last year have I nearly not used any other aircraft's than A2a's Accu-sim aircrafts. I am not looking for a lot of new aircrafts, cause even if I almost only use the 7 Accusim aircrafts so do they still feel like new to me and I still have a lot to learn to manage to fly them better than I do today. But there is one sort of aircraft I miss, and that is a modern propeller aircraft with Accusim.

So, is there any person here who can suggest a great modern propeller aircraft I can use?

I got LIONHEART - QUEST KODIAK and AEROSOFT ONLINE - DA20-100 KATANA 4X, the last one of these with Accu-feel is closer what I like than the first of these(the Kodiak I got bored of cause it is far from what Accu-sim aircraft's is performing).

I would be very happy for some suggestions.

Possibly some reluctance to suggest anything, incase of inadvertent conflict of interest - advertising.

I have quite a few other payware aircraft, and so far they've all worked very well with Accu-feel. In particular the people behind a certain Cessna CT210M Centurion, this comes with the Garmin 4/530 set, and is equiped for IFR.

Tough to respond without mentioning competitors, so apologies if I've crossed a line.

It is possible to include GPS in the A2A aircraft, a gentlemen within this community had included a link, albeit with some payware instruments - but it should be possible with default FSX GPS panels.

If this is a little vague, drop me a PM and i'll let you know which 'modern' aircraft I use that play well with Accu-feel. As it is, Accu-feel has not disagreed with any of the aircraft I use, and there are many.

John.

Baytower's RV-7 is a very high quality GA bird that goes perfect with Accu-Feel. The RealAir Lancair Legacy is also top notch. It's funny both the RV and Legacy are kind of like modern day homebuilt versions of the P-40 and P-51 respectively. The RV is simple, rugged and well suited to shorter trips into small air strips while the Legacy is a little more complex, requires a little more runway but is excellent for high speed longer distance trips. Both are capable of aerobatics and IFR flight.

Cheers

Thank you both for your suggestions of plane's. John(Rusty Lock), I don't think you need to worry about writing the full name of the company of where the aircraft comes from, as you know, there is a big difference about suggestion something and advertice for some other company. I have seen also Scott write in posts that that and that company is doing great aircrafts and sceneries, so it is not forbidden to name other companies. I have looking at this aircrafts you suggest and find them all realy great, but still far from what the Accu-Sim aircraft is doing.

And another thing, I was a bit suprised that beyond all members so is there only two who suggest other aircraft(a modern vfr aircraft), but that I think shows how great Accu-sim aircraft's realy is. There is no other aircrafts which can be compared at the same level as A2A's Accu-Sim aircrafts. So I realy hope that it in the future will come a new "Wings of Silver"-aircraft.

I prefer civilian aircraft's but I prefer all A2A's "Wings of Power" aircrafts in front of any other companies aircraft.

For another addon aircraft that appears to offer ownership/maintenance elements that we see with A2A, I would turn to the DA-20 Katana by Marcel Felde.

I cannot comment on the quality of the addon from 1st-hand experience, however I'm told by server operators that it floods badly, and so may not be friendly for multiplayer.

The real-world aircraft it's modelled after is quite a clean, sleek build. I've heard some describe it as a powered glider, I'd agree, especially with those high aspect-ratio wings.

If you're ok with relatively slow VFR only, it may just be the ticket. Just be warned; you may get kicked off multiplayer servers - hopefully a fix is in the pipeline.

I have many payware aircraft....Including M.A.A.M sims B-25....
I know that Vertigo studios is putting out a B-25 Mitchell, its been on the design table for a while now....Word thru the grapevine is that they are throwing everything into it, as far as features goes......
Word from Vertigo is that it is going to be their premeire aircraft......
Patiently waiting for this bird....espically being its the first true FSX B-25.
M.A.A.Ms B-25 is nice, but the sound for it is really to low in volume, and it cannot be turned up anymore then it is....Which is to bad, because it a nice plane even though its a port over....

John/Rusty Lock, thanks for that suggestion. It is the same aircraft as I have, the one that is sold from Aerosoft. And you are much right in your description of it. It is also the aircraft which is most closely to Accu-sim, but Accusim is still far much better and more developed. So if any person here like an modern aircraft which look like Accusim so can you try this one.

Trucker17, have you read the tread? Your suggestion is opposite of what I asked for, a modern civilian one with one or two engines. But I took a look at that aircraft, it seems to be an okay model, but A2A's B-17 seems to be far more developed and a better model. One of the few things with the B-17 I miss is that you can not walk around in the aircraft, but that may come in the future.

An aircraft which offers several aspects of what you're after, would be the turbine Duke by RealAir. The people behind this simulation of the modified Duke have programmed it such that it pays to adhere to checklists, due to the presence of random, and induced failures. It has a highly detailed cockpit, where all controls, buttons, and switches can be interacted with.

The aircraft it's modelled after, is the modified Beech Duke, the work carried out by Rocket Engineering. Ditching the piston engines in favour of the Pratt & W' PT6A-*. Very quick into the sky, but will hit Vne just as fast. It'll stop in a short distance too, thanks to beta-capable prop's.

How accurately has this has been translated into FSX? - I don't know, but it's fun to fly.

Added bonus of tidy, and easy integration with RealityXP instruments within the virtual cockpit, which incidentally is equiped for IFR.

Of course, it's also ramped upto 11 with the addition of Accu-Feel.

I would hold your horses on the Duke, or any other developers aircraft, at least for a couple of weeks. I have a feeling that something right up your street from the masters themselves; A2A - is about to have light shed on it.

John.

Thanks for taking your time with another suggestion. And I just saw the picture of a front of some aircraft look like something of what I ask for on A2A's facebook place, so maybe they develope it now.
