A2A hat richtige Sensationen in der Entwicklung.......

Kuckt ma! :hurra: :hurra:

Echt lecker das Ding. Ich glaube, ich spar auf nen neuen Rechner und steige mit auf den FSX..... :hurra: :hurra: :hurra:

The Supermarine Spitfire is one of the truly legendary aircraft, not just of World War II, but of all time. A brilliant design, the basic Spitfire wing and fuselage were able to be refined and improved over and over again into many different configurations during the course of World War II, and each excelled in its own right.

The Spitfire was designed by R. J. Mitchell, an aeronautical engineer of stellar talent who had previously designed such aircraft as the Supermarine S6B, which won the Schneider Trophy in 1931. Borrowing from the developments of others, including the low-wing, monocoque design which came from the United States, Mitchell crafted a superb basic design which stands to this day as one of the greatest piston fighters in aviation history. Mitchell envisioned a light, maneuverable craft with low drag, elliptical wings, and a broad performance envelope. The result was the Spitfire, a capable, lethal, yet forgiving aircraft that ultimately proved more than equal to anything the Germans could throw at it, including the vaunted Focke-Wulf 190.

The Spitfire had a number of design characteristics which set it apart from other contemporary fighter aircraft. The Merlin engine, the elliptical wing, the well-harmonized controls, and the versatile wing platform all worked together to create a package that was perhaps unmatched in terms of its immediate effectiveness and its potential to be developed further. Unlike the Japanese Zero, which was obsolete by 1943, the Spitfire was just coming to its prime. Chief among the features that set the Spit apart from other aircraft was its wing, which served multiple purposes. The elliptical planform and relatively broad root chord allowed a thinner airfoil section, reducing drag while preserving lift, which led to a very low wing loading. This increased top speed, preserved a low stalling speed, increased the service ceiling, and provided excellent low-speed agility. But the broad wing chord also allowed the convenient fitting of formidable armament such as multiple 20mm cannon and heavy machine guns.

The Spitfire last saw combat in 1948 during the Arab-Israeli war, where Spitfires from both sides were pitted against one another. But the honor which will always distinguish this singular aircraft is its superb service during the Battle of Britain, where it -- along with the Hawker Hurricane -- helped to fend off German designs for invasion of Great Britain. For that, it will always be remembered.

The Wings of POWER 3: Spitfire MkI/II FEATURES:

• Lightweight, powerful and maneuverable.
• As with every A2A aircraft, it is gorgeously constructed, inside and out, down to the last rivet.
• Designed and built to be flown "By The Book".
• Custom Cockpit Systems and Gauges.
• Visual Real-Time Load Manager, with the ability to load fuel and stores in real-time.
• Naturally animated pilot.
• 3D Lights 'M' (built directly into the model) with under-wing landing light than can be turned on, deployed, and retracted and fully functional recognition lights.
• Pure3D Instrumentation now with natural 3D appearance with exceptional performance.
• Sound engineered by A2A sound professionals.
• Oil pressure system models oil viscosity (oil thickness).
• Authentically modeled pneumatic system.
• In cockpit pilot's map for handy in-flight navigation.
• Auto-Mixture that actually performs as intended. Now you can set for “auto-rich” or "auto-lean" and the aircraft fuel-to-air ratio will be automatically determined and set by the carburetor based upon various factors, such as altitude.
• Three different models, Mk Ia, Mk IIa (machine guns), and Mk IIb (cannons).
• Internal Supercharger modeled with accurate behavior.
• Fuel delivery system simulated.
• All models include A2A specialized materials with authentic metal.
• Pilot's Notes pop-up 2D panel keeps important information easily available.

Ist halt anspruchsvoller, als irgendein FMC zu füttern, und stundenlang Routen abzufliegen und dann irgendwo ein Autoland zu machen..... :zunge:

Warum denn nicht....
mit gemütlichen 180- 220 KIAS über die Landschaft zwirbeln....Warum nicht. Und man muß dabei richtig arbeiten.
Herrlich!

Hello everyone.

This is a project that has been in the pipeline for a very long time, going back and forth from front burner to back burner as other schedules are met. We are pleased that it is, however, continuing to progress with the help of some incredible organizations.

The Chanute Air Museum houses many aircraft, including the restored P-51H "Heatwave." I urge everyone to visit their sites when you can, just keeping an eye on how they are doing. These guys are in the trenches, fighting the good fight in keeping history alive. I hope everyone supports some aviation-related organization. If you are young, then being a volunteer is a great way to get involved. There is nothing like growing up around aviation and these aircraft are disappearing forever. But it's not just the aircraft, but about the people who fill these organizations. If you don't have an organization close by, you won't find a better place than the P-51H Heatwave project at Chanute.

Czech Master Resin have an enormous fleet of high-quality models. It's amazing how similar 3d artists are to those who create physical models, like CMR. Both share the same passion in re-creating these aircraft. The have done superb research on the P-51H and this has helped this project come alive too.
