Where is the Pilot? HELP!
Posted: Sun Jul 31, 2016 11:44 pmI like planes with a fan up front, it refreshes the Mexican weather, including the Autogyro. Never tried a ducted fan though, but having a bubble like a helicopter with a fixed wing convinced me, so I included the Optica in my aircraft stable. BUT... WiTH NO PiLOT? That's even worse than skydiving from a Black Hawk!! 
Since my derelict & obsolete Lap Top freezes with FSX (unless I move all sliders to extreme left, then any aitcraft looks like a Pack Man with wings lost in MS-DOS 
) I fly in FS 2004 environment, all sliders to the right. Right? UNFORTUNATLY, the FS9 Optica does not include a pilot, like a static or museum display 
Here, my Optica sitting at Duxford:
This is most unfortunate: the model's flight behavior is good, has both cockpits & all controls move, doors open on both sides and graphics are acceptable. The view from the pilot seat is sensational for low & slow flight. BUT... no pilot, not even Leslie Nielsen nor an inflatable Auto Pilot.
I noticed an FS 2002 Optica in blue, so I tried it with FS 2004, clicked NO to some features are not compatible, do you want to cancel them? Here, parked at Lubitz Field AND...YES! Pilot & passenger are included: BUT one cockpit is lousy & the other missing, no doors open, inferior graphics, poor ground handling...
I found a similar bubble aircraft: the Seabird Seeker (not a ducted fan but also a pusher) here also parked at Lubitz Field: with a pilot it's MUCH BETTER
I also downloaded an Optica version for FSX, with a pilot & many liveries & colors: UNFORTUNATELY, has DDS textures that are a NoNo for FS 2004
Is there any possibility to add the pilot from FS 2002 - to my FS 2004 Optica? Like a Copy/Paste thing...
