Hi
I have read that AH is a realistic sim but not so realistic like many people believes. I would like to hear the opinion of an expert about the realism in the flight model of AH. I know that bomber system in B17 is irreal, but I'm refering to the flight model, only the flight model.

From my experience in a home built kit plane (cozy) and a few Cessnas (152,172, 172R(I think?) that AH represents the feeling of flight and how an aircraft should behave in normal and extreme conditions very well.

I work as flight instructor. I flew many general aviation aircrafts {Piper cadets, warriors, arrow, seminole (twin), Beech Travellair (twin), Cessna's 150/152/172, Robin HR200/DR400/DR300}, Declathlon.

I like the flight model in AH because it's realistic enought to "feel real" but simple enought for everybody to enjoy it. I think that most of the aerodynamic factor are represented, not all 100% operational, but they are here to give a feeling of "how it's like".

What I would like is a more precise representation of the systems like pomps/chargers blahblha, as an option for the crazy ones like me who like to increase their work load.

Cyrano, sospecho que este thread está de alguna manera conectado con el ya famoso "ventiladores vs secadores" en Meristation

No, he's not. He's a pisspoor guy who is trying to convince people in a spanish forum that the B17 FM of Microprose's B17II "The mighty 8th" is better than AH's FM.

In fact he is saying and repeating that AH FM is completely unrealistic and that lacks things like vibration (¿?), and that the C.G. modelling in AH is something common in today's sim factory (he compares AH with Crimson Skies in this regard, Go figure)

And after saying all that, he says that the B17 in B17II is the best FM of a B-17 in any simulator around...ahem. AH's FM has lots of black spots. BUt B17 II's B17 FM is a complete joke

 Eh????? For one thing, my post wasn't a troll. Secondly I have no reason to post as someone else. I don't consider I have to hide behind another name as I have nothing to hide or fear. I just speak my mind and always have.
 Now this is just typical. Someone else just happened to post a similar post to mine and all of a sudden "ITS A TROLL!". Get a frigging life.

For what its worth, I never saw RearGunner as a troll and I don't see this guys as a troll (well, maybe a bit after RAM's post).

RearGunner has been pretty reasonable in my opinion, especially considering how he has been attacked despite being new to AH and this "community".

RearGunner,
Try to have a thick skin.  Some of these guys are just naturally suspicious of newcomers and are not prone to giving people the benefit of the doubt.

I'm going to drop you an e-mail when I get home in regards to your "Do not move the stick so rapidly" problem.

 You know what? I was beginning to enjoy this game and getting into it. I even made a sig for posting on this board and I don't make sigs just so I can use em for 2 weeks. Meaning I was going to subscribe.

 But after seeing what a bunch of bananaS (SeaWulfe, Maverick, R4M) some of you are, I have come to the decision I am going to uninstall AH from my hard drive TONIGHT.
 
What reason was there to flame that guy? It was not me you bunch of PR!CKS!! R4M you CUUNT, I don't speak Spanish, but I am fluent in Italian and understood what you called him. It's nearly the same in Italian what you called him. That was not nice, you need a lesson in manners bad.

I heard this community was nice. HAHAHAHA. What a joke.

As I repeat that wasn't me posting that, I have nothing to hide. Anyone has a problem with me personally, ask HTC for my address and come visit me. Then we can sort this out face to face and I'll teach you some things you will never forget. Other than that FUK OFF!

I'm uninstalling AH.

 I'm not sure I read it right. The announcement said that bombers will have the out of body views. If true, it would fit right in with all the other, to hell with realism, features in the bombers.
