Not actually sure when this was released but must have been only recently. I know it is for X Plane 10 but it had been said that they will in time release one for FSX however, looking at the minimum requirements for X Plane I am glad I don't run that sim!!

Also some better screen shots and by all acounts it looks extremely good.

Interesting, I have bought several version of x-plane but could never get motivated to actually use it. Usually its the fact that I have to re-map all the keys and controls in order to be able to fly always seems overwhelming.
I use the JF/AH DC-6B all the time. I know PMDG makes good stuff but it's so expensive, so I wonder how the two will compare. Will probably wait till its available as an FSX/P3D version.

Hi Joe, I too use the JF DC6 but something inside me says that it is originally a FS9 model ported to FSX. The only reason I think this is that of the area around the windscreens, the gauges and many none-functioning switches that I feel could be used but don't.
