Guys, we just posted a vid showing the Accu-Sim B-17 in game. This video just barely scratches the surface of what has gone into this product. It contains all new Accu-physics, intelligent crew, over 700 custom sounds, and an entire Accu-sim pack weighing in at 500 MB.
This B-17 is extremely rich in detail, but as captain your crew is at your command, and it can be almost as easy to fly as our J-3 cub. I hope you enjoy it.
Wow... I'm speechless. This is by far my most anticipated release for flight sim yet. You're products can't be beat in my opinion. I can hardly stand the wait anymore, this videos put me over the edge As I read earlier tonight shes on a short final, can you gents give a hint as to when she'll hit the front page? Are we down to days? Either way, this will be the one to have and I'm sure others will agree. You guys have truly changed the way I look at flight sim, and for me, brought this hobby to another level. Congrats on many jobs well done!

Jeesh, I still mess up when flying the Jug and you say this will be as easy to fly as a Cub? I don't know about you guys, but when this comes out, I'm going to glued to the instructions. Could we have a better engine inspection for the P-47 as well? To replace parts rather than the entire thing would be nice instead of overhauling the entire engine and losing the hours you've built up would be a godsend.

I'll be looking for my download soon then Scott! LOL!
Hey, did the props on this bird get the same treatment as the 47? Using real blades and not a disc? That's gotta be my ultimate wish.

Already new wishes
Guys chill:) , let the team finish there's plan
Cody! this is a fantastic video... remind me the film "Memphis Belle"
I can't say that my grand parents have these same good memories about these plains, but after all it's really charming.. (my grand mother told me stories all the time when she saw them high up, with sparkling silver colored paints, like stars at midday)
one side of the world is a part of an airshow, another is some different things
i really don't want to say with this anything provocative, just... "how the beatiful things reacts in our world"
this engine management thing could be a very big thing in the p-47 too:)
i'm sorry to join the wish club, but that plain is still a good base for further 'small' updates
Can you tell us that how many projects are going on right now? B-17 accu, F4 fhantom, some mustang news
i don't want to be too curius...

Yes it is indeed easy to fly as the Cub... this accusimmed B17 is a complete new approach: you are not longer pilot...you are Heidi now

Hot Diddely Dang that is truely impressive Scott , no hesitation here - the share size off the file WOW , I tried a shared cockpit in multiplay with your Boeing 337 due to its work load , is this Fort possibly coming out with this feature ?

No, unfortunately FSX shared cockpit feature works only for simple planes. But that's why there's virtual crew that will help you fly the airplane properly.

Thanks for the quick reply ... I prefer the heavy workload anyways , hecks just looking forward to play round with the addon , obviously a extra liveries come with Accusim , i think you are going to get screens with a real McCoy box formation , now that would be interesting
