We’d love to hear from you if you have any contacts with access to the aircraft. The best way to do that will probably be to create a support ticket with us and that will then get passed on to the relevant people:Just Flight - Support
We will be supplying a paint kit at release so hopefully the incredibly talented painters in the community can get involved in covering the liveries we were not able to. There are some really cool retro liveries that the aircraft carried! It’s always a tricky balance for us to choose what liveries to include with the product, as it’s not feasible to include every livery an aircraft has ever carried, but we always try to include as large a selection as possible.
With regards to flight models, we did discuss the flight models with our testers after the initial streams and we agreed the crosswind behavior in the F28 is comparable with other aircraft in the simulator in the same conditions. I’ve personally had 100+ landings with the aircraft over the testing period and I’ve never experienced any landing issues. So the situation in the streams may just be a combination of windy conditions in the UK this week, the streamer’s first flights in the aircraft, and possibly not having the sensitivity settings set to their preferences.
It is worth noting however, that the MTOW (Maximum Takeoff Weight) of the F28 Mk.4000 is 73,000 lb (33,112 kg) which is less than half the MTOW of a typical 737 or A320. That in addition to the T-Tail should make the F28 more susceptible to windy conditions. It also has low wings with a very small ground clearance, so if you’re not wings level during the flare, that can cause wing tip strikes (which we do have sound effects for!).
It’s all part of the fun of learning to fly a new aircraft though. Flight models are always a tricky feature to show off to people over video, but once users are able to fly the aircraft themselves, we are confident the flight model will feel realistic.
