Hey, has someone tried the former payware C-130 from Alphasim with FSX? I'm flying the RNZAF C-130 (av. on their homepage) wich isn't bad, but a former payware: sounds good! Let me know if it's worth switching over  ;)

Get the captain sim one, loads upon loads of animations. Totally worth it.

No the real thing. I have it it IS GREAT! And, for being so detailed, surprisingly easy on frames.

i too have the alphasim C-130 and it works great...i had the captian sim free c-130 but none of the control surface would work...i even tried messing with the files by using numbers from alphasim's to see if that would make it work...but to no avial i ended up uninstalling both of the free captianSim's (C-130 and 757)...i also sent them an email asking if it was suppose to be like that or what's the deal.(kinda hard to try out a plane to buy if you cant fly it)...Nitro are you sure it's the free one that you got or can you fly that C-130?
