Looking rather good to me although I can spot a few modelling errors, I'm sure these will be sorted out as I don't even think it's entered testing yet.

Ooh, slapped wrist DC!! ;-)
It does look to be quite promising, although I'm not sure whether the mention of 3 packs to cover all the variants is an attempt to contain the price (a la the Lightnings) or means that it is time to consider being nice to my bank manager!!

I might be tempted as I still take the old one (with a fairly non-authentic but funcional VC) for a spin from time to time. The Jag was good as a 'mud-plugger' which is always fun. I think that 2 seater is still quite a pretty aircraft.

I agree, although I actually use the UKMIL 'licenced' freeware version these days.

Being my favourite aircraft, this is a must have!
But if there are any modelling errors (bearing in mind it's still a WIP), I can certainly overlook them. I mean, what other up to date Jaguars do we have? ;-)

Too fast and pointy; I'll wait for their B-24. ;-)

Hi Guys
if you see any modelling errors it might be in your interest to let the Guys at Alphasim know so we can avoid the usual release then a patch 3 weeks later problem they have done of late.
Sorry just an idea as they will never in a million years let anyone here beta test as we are Public Enemy No.1 :roll:
Regards
Rick

I am afraid
any errors we see may well be treated with contempt too Rick, they just want to build things the way they see them.
As thier customers consider us atCBFS
'rivet counters', maybe we should just let them get on with it!
Strangely, these are the customers who would celebrate stuff eminating from the 'gurus' here (like yourself) as being so accurate and well researched...funny old world aint it!
The forum there is a shrine to Phil and his merry men where critics get short shrift, albeit from minor members of the team and regular posters on the whole, not from actually Phil or Dan themselves. If that is another Dan model, he must be eating Ito sans' sushi diet
