Worth every penny/pfenning/schilling!

Some payware stuff is a bit pricey.  Sometimes one wonders if it seems to be worth it.  Sometimes one sits and waits for a sale or special that never seems to happen. ::)

So then one says to themselves, what the H! :-/

That's what I did yesterday. 

Been wanting a B-1B Lancer for a long time, but the price just seemed a bit too much. 

Soooooooooo, shortening the story some, I petitioned the 'Director Of Aquisition and Finance' and got "approved" for the Virtavia Lancer.

All I can say is........it's frackin' awesome and kept me up til the wee hours! :o  A nicely constructed and performing craft all the way around!!!

As always, thanx for lookin'. 

Almost forgot!  Many thanx to all that suggested in other threads, notably Flying Trucker, the BDsizer program.  Remarkably easy and efficient!

I'll hafta get back to ya on that one, need to read the manual first to take advantage of all the bells and whistles.

Still got the need for speed thing going on! :o

One disappointment though is that there are a few non-clickables sprinkled around the 'pit.  But that is the ONLY disappointment, this thing is AWESOME!!!

Sorry bud, but lookin' at the copyright section it would appear that could edge into some sorta violation.  :-?

Their sight appears to be undergoing a reconstruction.  Perchance after they're back up your may be able to make contact and they'll send you a copy.

One more thing, the soundset on this gem is way beyond the quality and excellence I have ever seen from any other freeware or payware piece........take-off from the tower view is truly thunderous!!! 8-)

Thanx!

I have been gettin' my money's worth outta the Bone! 

Nothin' like doing just under Mach at just enough altitude to negate any 'ground effect difficulty'.

The effect difficulty is the best way I know how to describe keepin' myself from becoming a part of the landscape! :D
