I know a lot is going on now with the Bonanza coming soon and the other warbirds to be updated for p3d v4.
I love the spitfire and its sensitiveness on the elevator.
A great new plane for A2A would be a mid size twin piston. Carenado is about to release a beech 18 which is one of my favourite. But another aircraft that I would love to see accusimmed is the PBY Catalina.
Aerosoft did produce a good one a long time ago, but with the new possibilities offered by p3dV4 and the genius of Accusim, it would be nice to fly an Accusimmed Catalina either in a WW2 config or in an airshow warbird configuration. There are quite a few still flying around so it may be possible to accusim it.
Amybody any thought on this?

Re: Seaplane - PBY Cat - twin for A2A
I'm not a big fan of the Catalina. I will invest all the resources for the Aerostar. Twin, not too big, not too small and fast, very fast.
Re: Seaplane - PBY Cat - twin for A2A
I've always loved the Catalina. But once my dream for an A2A B-25 died, any desire for a twin died with it. I love my Connie, but I really don't want another multi. After I get the Bonanza, P-51, and P-40, I'll probably only buy single radials in the future...unless a P-39, Bf 109, or 8KCAB should pop up.

At this stage it's more like:
Should A2A Accusim ANYTHING ?
Yes 100% [25367]
No 0.0% [0]

Re: Seaplane - PBY Cat - twin for A2A
I would love an A2A PBY-5A. It's always been a favorite of mine and would open up a whole new world for flight sim.
I'm all for it but for the time being just looking forward to 64bit P51, P40 & B17.

Re: Seaplane - PBY Cat - twin for A2A
Sure, if they made it I would buy it, tho for a twin amphib I would prefer one of the Grumman waterfowl...Wigeon, Goose, Mallard, or Albatross.
The PBY is a fine plane, but the joke about the PBY is 'Take off 90, cruise 90, land 90'. The Grummans would be more ideal for cruising/exploring. If there ever was a Flying Winnebago, it would be the Grumman Albatross.

Re: Seaplane - PBY Cat - twin for A2A
I would love to have a Catalina . But I'd love any warbird (or even a "workhorse" GA) that would come along.

Besides the underpowered Piper Cub I would love to see a more powerful bush plane for us backwoods fliers.
Take care, Brett

Re: Seaplane - PBY Cat - twin for A2A
I have a wonderful Cat flying in P3D, so I don't need another. What I want is a T-33!

Re: Seaplane - PBY Cat - twin for A2A
The Aerosoft PBY Catalina actually works in P3D V4.
A bit aged and not accusimmed - but still has alot of features also when it comes to engine failures, airframe icing etc..

When I like to do basic flying, I turn to A2A Aircraft, cause A2A "basic" flying means "complex" procedures.

Re: Seaplane - PBY Cat - twin for A2A
I'll second that, Aerosoft PBY works well in P3Dv4.
Pretty realistic engine behaviour and failures are modelled.
Not Accusim, but still pretty good.
