Indeed! But I like it more if this bird would be released. What's holding it up?

Getting it right, one would hope... Such impatience does you no credit.

Hi RobdeVries,
I'm not part of the Just Flight team, so I'm afraid I can't give you any answers but personally, given the completeness of the pre-release version in my preview, I can't see it being much longer. Thanks, Rich

Let the man ask when it comes out. It said february release, so i think its natural to be a little bit impatient. I´m that as well...
Thanks for the preview. It looks great and now I´m even more impatient.

Hi Glenn,
Thanks. I kind of 'fell' into the world of pre-release stuff, and there's no one route to get access. My email is flightsim481@gmail.com and if you give me a shout I'll tell you what happened for me. Rich

This one has just been released. I'm having troubles though... The actula aircraft doesn't appear after installing it and started it in FSX. Anyone having the same experience??

I dont have it yet, but since I had similar problems with another Justflight/Aeroplaneheaven product, I would do the following:
1) contact JustFlight 2) make sure you have simconnect.dll installed. Btw, are you using FSX or P3D

Im using FSX. I'm getting all the help from JF Support team. I just hope it is going to work. As a Dutch guy, the F27 is an alltime must for me.

F27's were equipped with weather radars, and I believe that there's one by the pilots side.
Is this operational on the JF F27, or would it be possible to map a third party wx radar gauge in its place? Thanks, Fabio |

Yes of course. Thats very understandable and I´m sure you´ll get to run. The problem with JF/AH products is that costumer service goes a bit slower, because you contact JF, who contact AH who contact JF, who contact you . I dont know if AH makes direct support on this one. You could always try. They have a website.

After months of waiting, I downloaded the Fokker 27 and there is already a problem. I don't have a complete airplane. About 60% is missing, I don't know if this can be fixed. I made a check of the files, everything is in order. My lap-top is unable to put together a complete airplane. It could be hard drive, or not enough memory.
I had this same problem with the Cessna Citation, the plane would appear incomplete in the FSX window. But, some how the problem corrected it self and I get a complete plane. I guess the frustration comes the fact that this product is something you download and if something is missing, you cant sent it back. I don't think the problem is the downloading, it is quick, less then 2 minuets. I would like to send a photo of the plane, if that would help. I still think it is my computer that is unable to put together a complete airplane. |

Update. I downloaded the F-27 again. Same problem, incomplete. I did make an attempt to fly it. The 3-D cockpit is complete, all instruments are there. The weird thing, I started the engines...when the props start to spin, the hub disappears. I cycled through all the external views, incomplete plane. It looks like I am not the only one having this problem.

Strange enough, as i wrote, I had fixed the invissible problem with the JF/AH Chipmunk. BUT, yesterday I loaded it again and it was invissible again. My last AH product, the Globe Swift completely deleted my main effects folder when uninstalling. Aeroplane heaven recognized that it was their fault, but my effects folder is empty
So, I´ve been waiting for the the Fokker 27 for month and I´m not going to get it at least for now. The 2 products that I have which were made by Aeroplane Heaven came with serious problems. A shame, because the F27 looks sweet. I hope that JF costumer service gives you guys the help you deserve.

William, did you contact Support? I hope you did, just to make clear to Just Flight that something is seriously wrong with this release.

Provide system specs and what other (scenery) addons you have installed. Sounds like your system cannot keep up - it's perfectly normal for the aircraft to have delayed display of parts as it first loads the textures , but after a few seconds it should be complete. if you have actual disappearing textures i.e. they appear then disappear, that is almost always a resources issue.

It doesn't sound like the aircraft is at fault, insofar as other users have installed and run the aircraft successfully.
I would suggest that as you have had a similar experience with other add-ons, that there may be a shader issue on your system, as if it's not being drawn correctly (ie. It's all there but your system isn't drawing it on screen) as opposed to sections of the aircraft missing due to an installation problem. If the installer was this corrupt, I'd expect it to not run at all. Try deleting and regenerating (rebuilding) your FSX shader cache (Google it to finding how), and try again. You mention a laptop; what is the configuration of this (CPU, speed, RAM, video card) as generally laptops cannot run FSX as well as more powerful PC systems. JF support are generally good, so definitely contact them. |
