I decided to wait on purchasing the B-17 until the accusim pack is available so I will have a nice interesting learning curve with her. I looked up ferry routes used in wartime to get the B-17's over to the UK and plan on flying one of those to bring my lovely new aircraft over to where I live (not too far from Bletchley park and I often get treated to a freebie of Battle of Britain memorial flight making a pass or two). I have a flight plan all sorted and I'm really looking forward to making this trip in such a lovely simulated aircraft.

WHAT THE HELL DOES ALL THAT MEAN, STOP


I'm not sure if you are asking why Lewis was using STOP after each phrase, but if you were, it was the way telegrams were sent in the days before modern communications were established.

After the first tests I can only say, I LOVE it.
I have all accusimmed planes, but this one is outstanding.
This is not just a piece of software, this is a living machine: it breathes, it talks to you and it flies like a dream!
Thank you sooo much A2A!!!
Greets from a totally satisfied customer,

You can just see how everything has built up over the aircraft to this one.. from the tiny little 65hp 4 banger in the Cub shaking to the large Wright Radials shaking the aircraft. My favorite addition is most definately the maintenance hangar. I hope this gets expanded for the P-51 & so on. Although I don't know how much more you can possibly cram into a FSX simulation. This is certaintly the icing on the cake though. So thank you for the hard effort. You guys truly do push the envelope with every aircraft release, and it shows.

The plane is brilliant! looks good, sounds good, flies good: what is said in the video tutorial that it's a teddy bear: its so so very true. Its easy and straightforward to fly. This is certainly a veryveryvery good purchase! thanks A2A simulations!!!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I cant wait for the P-51 and F-4E Phantom II Accu-sim's to come!

This modifcation to the B-17G is outstanding. I've been flying the B377 for a long time and with Accu-sim it was great. My only irritation was to be the pilot handling everything and yet gettting intercom calls from the engineer to make adjustments to cowls, MP, intercooling, etc. This Accu-sim for the B-17 addresses this, has crewmen realistically handling things, and makes it challenging but also a joy to fly. I've also been flying the original A2A B-17 for a long time and it was good, greaqt graphics, accurate flying characteristics--but lacked something and didn't challenge. With the Accu-sim added, it is excellent.

Congratulations to the team that developed it!
