I have posted elsewhere some things that I think need to be fixed or looked at for this aircraft and this is not the purpose of this post. I would like to say with SP2 the aircraft is very good. The textures are very good, I find no significant hit on frames for an off the shelf PC and the performance as per what an aircraft of this era is like and I guess a DC-8.

I have flown the aircraft extensively in my sim, from climbs and descents to cruise and shorter hops, visual circuits, and instrument approaches such as the VOR and ILS. Once you learn to not get behind the power curve and the short response range of the engines it is a delight.

I think this is destined to be a classic and hope that JF can get some annoying little issues fixed.

Oh and the VC at night cockpit lighting and shading on the textures is simply stunning. 10 out of 10.
