Posted: Sat Sep 12, 2009 8:28 pmBut with a turbo in the tail and two turbines in the nose, who needs a paddle?

Is this beast manoeuverable enough to take all the turns of this river ? Must be tricky...

It's a repaint of the ALPHA A-90 Orlyonok (Or Orlenok). Not FSX friendly "out of the box", but swap out the panel folder with one from a FSX friendly 717 (or any 3 engine jet) and replace the sound folder with the one from the "Souped up" Otter that Patchez did the "Taz" paint job on, and it rocks.
Otter for sound:

Orlyonok:

Panel: Any three engine commercial jet, especially if they are already FSX compatable.

Some of the "hairpins" are tough, but I found you can "bounce" the beastie over some of the bends, and I'm getting a handle on digging one of the wing tips in to pull a sharp turn. It's not pretty, but somethimes it works.
Thanks for the comp, EJW!!

Posted: Sun Sep 13, 2009 9:30 amYes I thought you were using some special techniques like that.
By the way, I'm surprised I have still not seen any shot from you featuring this new packages of arcade fighters from Ace Combat in the downloads. Tired of the arcade stuff, or too much Orlyonok-addicted ?

You got me pegged! Heck, since fiddling the Orlyonok and the Sea Monster, I hardly even flown the black repaint Spindrift! Poor baby is probably feeling neglected.
Come to think of it, the first download of the Aces package didn't have any thumbs, and while I was making some for them, I decided to make some thumbs for the FS9's I had in FSX that didn't have thumbs, and that's when I ran across the Orlyonok. Weird, eh?
The Aces "biplane" things are pretty wild, though. :)
