Aeroplane Heaven P-47D released

Basic means they can be done at a baseline level of adequacy… which is not the same thing as doing them well.

Thinking of the A2A Accu-Sim warbirds back in the day… not to mention their Cub.

Glad to hear the P-47 is functional in '04, but in MSFS 2020 it didn’t go all that far toward delivering the experience.

Don’t remind me. They are the biggest loss of moving on from FSX / P3D. :frowning: At the rate A2A Simulations release aircraft now (one every 5-10 years, it seems) we wil never see them again in MSFS.

Agree. I still miss them. Never got nearly as much out of their GA offerings.

But it’s good that Flying Iron, GotFriends (with the Wildcat) and Milviz (with the Corsair) have stepped in and picked up most of slack.

There’s always someone coming over the horizon… the way A2A took over the mantle from Dreamfleet.

The circle of sim life, I suppose…

Honest question - does this plane ever go on sale? The price seems a bit high to me. I think I’m actually talking myself into “pulling the trigger” as I type this, but just curious.

I noticed this got an update on Marketplace, anyone know what the update was for?

I was about to ask the same thing. No patch notes as usual. Hoping someone will post details here

Guys,

While flying the Jug last week, I discovered a small bug regarding the fuel system. I reported it to AH, who checked it out and almost immediately confirmed it existed on their end as well, and that they would fix it.

That was Friday. Today, Sunday, I received an e-mail that the new version had been uploaded. I downloaded it and tested it. 100% fixed. I have to say, two days from reporting a problem to a patch release is rather a record for any developer.

I can only speak for myself, but it seems to me that AH have made some impressive improvements in both build quality and fidelity with each new release recently. It’s taken some time, but it seems they are very serious about elevating their brand in the flight sim world. My hat is off to them-

If you have the P-47, check your e-mail for a link to the download. (and don’t forget to check your junk folder as well). New version is 1.4.0.

Cheers,

Chris

v1.1.1 (2024/04/11)

Notes:

If you are running 3rd party shaders and/or tweaks it is expected that you know how to change and modify the shaders. This addon has been developed on a stock MSFS game. Effects are working on a stock game.

If you have replaced the stock Asobo pilot with a thirdparty version there is a good chance the pilot switcher will not work correctly. It is assumed that you will understand this as you have modified your game. We cannot be held responsible for disembodied hands showing due to issues with other third party addons. This is down to the code of the visibility switcher

Newly ADDED:

  • someone on facebook made the mention of the RAF being in the manual but no texture representing the RAF.He’s right! RAF texture added.

- Malcom hood model added + 2 textures for the malcom hood version. There is no change to the actual FM . This is PURELY visual. The malcom hood was an interim solution between the razorback and the bubble top P-47.

Changes:

- Canopy in new model now opens.

- Odd issue in multiplayer and airshow assistant rectified.

Tweaks:

- Possible VR fix we dont develop for VR but we have instigated the SDK recommendations.

Bug fixes:

- Aileron trim enabled now.

- Main fuel selector correctly moved to the correct fuel tank on flight start.

- Lightened the metal on metal textured aircraft. Please be wary of the first note.

- Landing light effects alignment changed outwards.

- Pilot disappearing at distance if using the stock pilot.

- added gunsight to distance models.

- Lowered the volume of the interior sound by 3db. ( Community feedback )

- Possible fix to AI sounds.

- reprofiled hump and canopy on the standard razorback and the new malcom hood.

- moved the gunsight mk8 over - Please remember this is a civil based sim.

- Put the correct throttle and water injection switch in with requisite changes to the flightmodel.

- changed the props from feathered to unfeathered. It was annoying us too !

- Gun visual effect conflict with the P-51 has been rectified.

Flightmodel changes:

- MAtched the stock mixture lever to the following 80% lever position is auto-rich, 65% is auto-lean, 0 is cutoff.

- prop inertia change.

- Cowl flaps system retweaked - full open will be needed at 140 mph to balance at 260 C. On a hot day, airspeed will need to be increased in the climb.

- added more payload options for those of you that want that sort of control. The ammo has no effect on how long you fire your guns mainly because you know you could run out before you need to. Also the click click sound ? difficult.

- Water injection is available. You must set the water payload for it to be used it is set to 2 gal per minute, so approx 7.5 minutes or so.

You should check your link. I’ve had 1.4.0 installed since November… as he said above.

That’s some pretty bad AI right there.

Did just that…SimMarket has v1.3.0 as latest. Orbx lists the same number as latest.

I’ve got 1.4.0 per the update link - direct purchase from their website. But the changelog only goes to 1.3.0. It would be interesting to know what differences there are between the two, if any.

Either it was a typo error: writing 1.4.0 while meaning 1.3.0. Or it was indeed a new version, but the old 1.3.0. was send again. I have experienced both in the past.
