Has anybody tried this yet?  I was designing one for many months before I was locked away, and I was going to attempt it again.  But I may just have to swear off the dern thing, if this is any indication!

I have the osprey but believe me (people who have alphasim aircraft know this) alphasim aircraft are not that geared towards the realism and quality other payware exhibits, the best they are is fun to fly.

Let me demonstrate...  ;D

The GPS may look functional but it doesnt work, as for most other instruments in this vc  >:(

The flight dynamics are completely messed up. The only reason I go t to where I am in this shot is because I slewed it a bit... a moment later I rolled onto my back and crashed... :D

I assure you, make your osprey. Not everyone will buy payware, I looked a long time for a freeware one before making this ridiculous purchase...  :P

The problem isn't the model.  It looks terrific, almost like the one I was making at first.   I was making mine by using three-views and checking a model I was building at the same time.  Made for some really precise parts, and it looks almost exactly like that one.

The problem is the airfile.  It can't be made to move correctly, which is something I am praying for from FS10.  Unfortunately, with all the speculation about it, and no hard facts to back them up, it seems 10 will be another year in the making.  Oh, well, back to the creator board.
