I wish you good sales, you earn it. I initially wanted to pass, but since itā€™s available somewhere else than marketplace, Iā€™ll buy it tomorrow. I watched FlyingFabio stream and so much passion went into this project :slightly_smiling_face:

This is it lads, we just hit a milestone, in exactly 12 hours from the time of writing, youā€™ll be able to experience our very first flagship aircraft for Microsoft Flight Simulator. Our team are thrilled and cannot wait to finally join the community in the skies with this Polish classic.

Dose the starter air get recharged from a compressor once the engine is running?

It does indeed, plus you can also choose to manually refill it via the clipboard if you ran dry while failing starts with realism enabled! You can track the compressor via the needle on the bottom right gauge located near the floor. :slight_smile:

Is this what they call a ā€œstress-testā€? :grin:

Good luck to you guys!

I have to say I had zero interest in the Wilga. However, after seeing the previews and using the Freedom Fox/Fox2 for the past month and loving the flight model, Iā€™m very excited to give this one a whirl. I will brush up on my Polish, and promise to dress as a Hussar whenever I take it out!

Now letā€™s talk about the Do 27, my favorite of the old rugged bush planes. You know it was the first aircraft to land on Saba island? That the subsequent Do 228 and 328 can be traced to that lowly plane?? Considering itā€™s stol-ability and rich history, how could you not make that a future project??? The finicky engine alone will make simmers swoon!

That is the thing. You can tell these guys just love doing what they do, and that shows in their products and definitely rubs off on us end users. Speaking for the majority here but you know what I mean.

They put in stuff they donā€™t NEED to, just for the love of it. They listen to their customers and donā€™t have a mightier-than-thou attitude (like you sometimes see with some other top tier devs) and they are self-critical and humble, which gives me the confidence that if they think itā€™s good for release and worth this price, then it is.

I wonā€™t be able to fly until Friday but will be desperate to finish work and spend the weekend checking out the Wiiiily!!! Hope you all have fun without me. Just donā€™t mention any bugs :stuck_out_tongue:

Hopefully nothing time limited? I canā€™t be around at that time and donā€™t want to miss out.

At any rate! Iā€™m super happy that the Wilga will finally be released in a matter of hours. Good luck for a great release.

Man (woman)ā€¦, I want this plane so much. Please, can anyone from got friend confirm if itā€™s VR ready? This plane have everything I wish for a bush. I own the Kitfox and the Bush League Legend Xcub mod. Both of those are very good, but from what I see that Got Friend have done, this look like a step up, more close to study level on a bush planeā€¦

The on big missing thing now, is on the side of Asobo. I invite you to please help me (and us, the bush pilots) to give a push to my wishlist post in the forum. I think most of you would agree.

Sure is! Tested on a Rift CV1, Quest 2, and even Varjo Aero. We also setup a VR zoom collision on the dash.
