Thanks for the update! This plane truly sounds like yet another master piece. I will never figure out all of this talk about the Comanche being hard/unpredictable to land. She has never given me any trouble whatsoever. The only time I even thought it was hard landing was when my elevator trim tab broke and was stuck in the cruise position. I had to use A LOT of back pressure on that landing even though I was well over normal landing speed thinking that would help give me better pitch control. Stuck gauges are definitely going to add a new element to things, and I look forward to learning it all!

Outstanding news! Any chance we can get our hands on the manual beforehand to get familiar with this beauty before release?

Ooooh! Love the new gauge-physics idea!

I hope this extend to having fuel gauges that are not to be trusted fully - needing to verify during walk around that there is fuel, and keeping some sort of calculation on fuel burn during flight.

Also, the new Glicksman manual is something I look forward to as much as the plane itself. Great writer, and fascinating things to learn from his research. Bring it on! :-D

I also notice that the Comanche is easy to land. But this means the Bonanza will be even easier! :D

You'd love it. :) A western entry into high-alpha regime, or beyond classical stall.

But now, krhm, the screens of Bonanza....?

Thank you for the update, Scott.

While waiting for the new Bonanza to come out, and for my P-40 also, I've been putting around in the T-6 and flying the Comanche around the Southwestern US, up into Montana, etc. I continue to marvel at the realism we are getting in our A2A aircraft. This has dampened my impatience somewhat. I can wait, because I know it will be worth it!

We really do need the LIKE button on this forum, however. I mean, it's not like you have to Accu-sim the doggone thing; just give it to us already! :lol:

The new gauge physics, will the other planes be updated for it?

Thanks for the update.

Does this plane include the new accusim technology?
And will the new gauge physics reflect the sloshing of fuel in the tanks?

Does anyone think these new features might trickle down to older products over time?

Marcel, read ALL the posts before asking questions. There has been several relating to the new technology being incorporated in the new releases, all down the line, from one plane to the next. Maybe buy a few and get to know the technology they create.

Sloshing of fuel in the tanks? What do you really know of aircraft fuel systems?
