Hi Barry. I have to agree with you. I can't quite put my finger on why, but I think the one eleven is DM's best. It's certainly not the prettiest of aircraft but the model doesn't seem to have any faults. It does everything just the way you would expect with no drama or panic. The quality of the exterior, the 2D and the 3D panels is exquisite and it is a joy to fly. And of course the 500 even has autoland to play with as well! Coupled with the joy of making lots of noise and smoke it makes me as happy as a pig in shingle.
I decided a while ago that if I was stuck on a desert island and was allowed only one flightsim aircraft to play with, it would be DM's one eleven!
As far as I'm concerned this aircraft is right at the top of my "Best Add-ons" list, along with David's Comet and Trident. All three are works of art that put the vast majority of (grossly overpriced) payware aircraft to shame where quality and functionality are concerned. Thank you, Mr. Maltby, for some of the best birds you can get for FS!
