Thanks so much! I’ve owned all of the Wilco/Feelthere EJets.
The only semi decent looking EJet I’ve ever experienced was the 145LR by Feelthere.
Everything else since FSX/P3D-MSFS has been garbage by the same devs unfortunately.
Welp… as someone who doesn’t care about capturing ILS and the other FMS/NAV stuff looks like I may grab it.

I got this today. £23 on Contrail in their sale.
It’s actually decent. I can actually see the makings of a full fidelity jet, here. What is here is decent.
As long as they continue to update, and they’re committed to improving, it’s absolutely fine with me. Tbh early access isn’t unusual these days. I am used to it with DCS and they’re A LOT more expensive than £23.
The frame rate thing needs sorting with this, however. It makes mine tank by around 15fps, compared with other jets.
Make sure you’re not in DX12, the E-Jet definitely doesn’t like that. In the settings, crank down the CP screen refresh rates as wel…

Just got this and did a quick 10-minute test flight using a straight-out departure and ILS approach planned in MSFS World Map only.
Have not read any info or manual yet, so was pleasantly surprised the plan was used by the aircraft with no hassle. Managed to get on course straight after TO and then approach and glide slope. Landed with no issues. Quite surprised at how straight fwd it was tbh.
Looking fwd to the future of this one. Cheers.

Aerosoft One is still only showing 0.9.15 unfortunately. Is there anything that can be done about this? tbh I would have bought it direct from the developer, but the shopping cart directs to Aerosoft.
Also, this would not normally be a huge issue but when it is early access, it is kind of frustrating missing out on thr new additions etc.
Cheers.
Yes, the version was already up in the Contrail but took a while in Aerosoft One. From what I know, the person in charge to update it on Aerosoft was not available at that moment so it got delayed. It’s up right now.

Oh great. Thanks for letting us know. 
Anyone: how this compares to Virtual Col Embraer, that is quite basic?
theres no comparison. virtualcol is mscenery-tier garbage. this one is shaping up to be a pretty solid release

In trying to find out some info about the pad. Some of the settings are not in the manual, or maybe I’m being dumb. (Often am).
For example what is the Custom ILS button for? It seems to be working fine without it but I’m intrigued.
Cheers all.
i think custom ILS -whatever that is- just got released in a recent patch and i dont know how often documentation gets revised, so some stuff probably hasnt been added there yet

Ahh thanks. Perhaps I’ll have to try and find a Discord for them or something. It’s no biggie at the moment. But really enjoying the aircraft as it is. Especially as I used to fly in them (as a passenger) regularly.
Custom ILS was just released a couple of days ago in the latest update. The patch notes explain it in depth.

Bought the plane today on Contrail and just did my first flight in the 170 from NZWN to NZAA. I must say, it is indeed really enjoyable. Some things are oviously still missing, but everything went really smooth and without any bugs

Just a punters (betting) question…
If i was to buy this now vs waiting for the final product…
What do you guys think I’ll, or people on the fence be saving…???
One of those…
Should we buy now for the discount or just wait and not expect to pay $$$$ for the final product 
I purchased it about 4 months ago and have been very pleased with the improvements they have been making. They promised and have kept up with a new release every 2 weeks which adds features and fixes problems.
While there is still work to be done, things are definitely headed in the right direction. Unless you want FENIX/PMDG quality out of the gate, I feel it is a good value for the price now. Also, they have an incentive to keep working on this – they want to sell the 190/195 variants in the not too distant future. For that to be a commercial success, they know they have to stick with it.
FWIW, I think the plane modeling is very good…

Well, it seems the project has reached a mature enough state for me to buy it, so I just did. Unfortunately, I am also at work and have no plans to be home tonight… so it will have to wait until tomorrow for me to download and try this. I am pretty excited as I generally am with these kinds of birds. Especially one that will hopefully erase the memory of flying the Virtual Col E-Disaster (that one drove a final nail into my willingness to spend a penny more on their stuff). THIS? Certainly looks like these guys are serious about doing it right.

it is, its nothing like the virtualcol trash.
i think this thing got a bad rap from its initial release state, but it was in a good state by the time i stepped on the e-jets train.
the devs are making continuous effort to bring this up to speed faster than i have a chance to fly it…the outlook looks good so far but i havent had time to dig deep enough into the systems to find anything to be disappointed by, so if theres something lacking, im just not yet proficient enough to know about it

I imagine I will be in a very similar situation. I know my way around a B737, A320, CRJ, and MD82 now and feel very at ease with them. But recently there has been an influx of newly purchased airliners - F28, BAe146, ATR, AN225 that I have yet to really feel comfortable in… This will be another new one. I hope the AP on this makes sense. I think it will, but I remember the VirtualCol autopilot logic being whack… however, I have a feeling that it was BECAUSE it was VirtualCol.
