Fantastic work fellas, just fantastic.
That ultra violet lighting is incredible. I mean, it's all incredible, the attention to detail is phenomenal.
The waiting is unbearable.
How's that weather coming?

Thanks Jigsaw, if you hadn't told me, I would've been sat here twiddling my thumbs ! Dl'ing it now

How's that weather coming?

The first aircraft are already taking off at this very moment! Check the A2A shop or you are gonna miss your mission, Captain!

Absolutely breathtaking.
Can't wait to put my hands on this beauty.

AMAZING!

It seems with every iteration, accusim gets better and better.

[Seatime]

Will we be able to install repaints done prior to acusim into the acusim package?

This beast is rightous now, impressive, all I need is blow up copilot to work everything else. I just liked sitting watching it shake. Well done.

I vote for Heidi as co-jo By the way where is she back home with the guy in the Cub The B-17 could be better if she was waiting for our heroes to return from the mission

Now is this the same B17 (Wings of Power II) for FSX that I purchased a while back ago, that will now work with Accu-Sim? Or do I have to re-purchase a new version of the WOPII B17 just for this Accu-Sim?

Thanks,
Bob

You don't need to buy anything else other than the accusim for the B-17 Bob.
That's it bud. Snap 'er in & yer golden!

Great crew interaction. We need this feature in the B377. I just purchased the Accu-Sim B-17 and I'm looking forward to flying it with the help from my crew. I think you have out done yourselves with this version of Accu-Sim.

Keep the shiny side up and the dirty side down!

Mr. Scot G./Dev./Staff,

All I can say is you guys "Rock!" at developing this stuff. I'm getting this soon...

Last Summer (2009) the B-17's came to Lunken Airport (where I work) and I got a chance to tour (inside them) while I was not working. I though you'll might like to see what a beauty she really is upclose; however, the flight was ($$$) a little expensive for the average enthusist but, well worth it to help with the costs of keeping them flying again.

Enjoy!

PS: The elderly gentlemen photographed were members of the original crew that flew them during the war (+1 spouse & a daughter). The stories they told could fill volumes of encylopedias and were very interesting to pilots (like me) who would love to be in the PIC chair with one of these (if only for fun's sake).
