Re: A2A Simulations - Mini Holiday update
It looks like no possibility for RXP GNS integration from the looks of the panel, is that true?
Virtual Avgas fits my budget...
Re: A2A Simulations - Mini Holiday update
I imagine A2A would make the radio stack modular like with the 172. Looking at the screenie it looks like you could take out Com1/Nav1 and the DME would leave you room for a GNS unit. I am sure the boys will come up with something
Re: A2A Simulations - Mini Holiday update
Any chance for a version with a constant-speed prop?
VC is looking great!

I'm still going to fly my 172 down to the Piper factory and trade it in on the new Piper PA28/A
Re: A2A Simulations - Mini Holiday update
It looks nice but a bit disappointed that the model is not more modern say the Archer from the 1970s or one of the models with constant-speed prop.

Re: A2A Simulations - Mini Holiday update
The options for the cockpit will be similar to the C172, all hot swappable in sim in the same fashion.Shalomar wrote:It looks like no possibility for RXP GNS integration from the looks of the panel, is that true?

You can please some of the people all of the time and all of the people some of the time.

I just made that up.
Not really, it was Abraham Lincoln. Whoever that is! Actually, he said FOOL, not please

Re: A2A Simulations - Mini Holiday update
Literally every Accu-Sim product we have released has carved a new path based on research, learning, and then using this knowledge to create a product. Remember the J-3 Cub? The talk was “what's there to Accu-Sim?†I liked these comments because before the J3, many outsiders wrongly thought Accu-Sim was some kind of simple engine damage. They thought Accu-Sim was hard, but the J3 showed that true realism is actually easier because common sense applies. The Cub gave us the golden opportunity to show people that “damage and wear†is only about 5% of the world of Accu-Sim. Our beautiful little J-3 was and continues to be a huge success.
We are however now witnessing another golden opportunity developing with this Cherokee from the public's misunderstanding of how and where a Cessna 172 and a Piper Cherokee differ. On paper, these two look similar, but to anyone that knows, these two icons are far from the same. The manufacturers have a very different view (literally speaking from the cockpit too ), so when comparing, the words siblings or even cousins don't come to mind. What they are, are fierce competitors much like a Ford Mustang is to a Chevrolet Camaro. Except in this case, we’re comparing a 1996 Cessna 172 to a 1965 Piper Cherokee 180, and how they operate today. It’s fascinating.
With Accu-Sim and the requirement for us to flight test so thoroughly, we’re seeing all sorts of things pop up that we never noticed before when just flying them. Initial flight testing shows how they taxi, takeoff, climb, stall, land differently. It wasn't until just the other day after doing the sound recordings of a Cherokee with a Lycoming O-360 and coming back to the studio that I realized just how different they sound. And I mean COMPLETELY different. This is going to be really a big moment when we have both of these GA titans on the market and both simmers and pilots can truly see just how these two rivals stack up. This forum will light up with all kinds of debates and knowledge.

Re: A2A Simulations - Mini Holiday update
You guys are killing me. As a warbird guy, I didn't want to get any GA on my FSX to begin with, and got the 172 because I trust A2A enough that I'd like it... turns out I love it. But I REALLY wasn't gonna get the Piper; no need, never flown one, never been interested, who cares... ?Scott - A2A wrote:Literally every Accu-Sim product we have released has carved a new path based on research, learning, and then using this knowledge to create a product.

Now it looks like not only have you sold me Cherokee, but I'm insanely excited about it's release!
Now, since I think I read the C172 was at the center of your 2014 plans, I hope that means an older, carburated variant will be released in the manner that the Civilian P-51 was released after the Military version. That would be the icing on the cake for me!
Congrats on all your successes, and Merry Christmas!
