FSD Piaggio Avanti

Postby jordonj » Sun May 08, 2005 12:05 pm

FSd has a deal for this weekend:

For $25 you get the Piaggio Avanti and C-17 Globemaster/T38 Talon.

'Twas in a bit of doggerel, a temptation not to be resisted!

Starting off from Chicago O'Hare

Landing at Meigs (now fictional thanks to the bastards on Chicago city council...wanna bet me that high-priced condos are going to go there?!)

No regrets!

Good lookin' screenshots  ;D

The Piaggio looks interesting, but the other two in the package would just be using up good hard drive space as far as I am concerned.... :o

Actually, the Talon VC has been re-worked from the freeware 2002 version: think the re-worked Bell Jetranger compared to the default!

Yeah I thought the Talon used to be freeware, and wondered how much, if any they had changed it..

Actually the C-17 is decent. The VC is good for the "budget" sense as payware goes, (it uses the default 747 panel for 2D) and the updated Talon is quite an improvement over the 2002 model.

The C17 and Talon for $12 is worth it if you want a USAF transport for hauling.

Great shots of the Avanti :D

Just flew it for a short flight...my opinion?

I probably wouldn't have been interested in it by itself...but the package with the Avanti made for a great deal!  The C-17 probably isn't going to knock anyone's socks off (where the VC is concerned), but it's certainly not a bad work...and there's a reason that the package is $12 and comes with the T38 Talon.  Looks aside, it does fly great!

I've been impressed with FSD's work and this time is no exception...no regrets! ;D
