Captain Sim He-111 Released

Heinkel He 111 – Captain Sim

captainsim.net

Doesn't look bad although sounds are straight from the DC-3

Not the sort of thing I ever thought Captain Sim would release - completely out of the blue, as far as I can tell. More info and video:

Wow. Tempting.

This looks and sounds very, very good. I fly only in FS2024 now so I'll have to see if anyone gets it working.

 

[MIKE JG]

My favorite German bomber of WWII!

I couldn't resist a He-111 and haven't regretted it yet. Very very nice model!

How does it fly ?

 

[Priller]

The flight model is actually quite credible in my humble opinion.

[Spook48]

enough for me than. I'm sold

 

[hangarrat101]

Anyone know if it works in 2024 yet?

 

[Skyhawk263]

Awful tempting, hopefully someone will report in if it will work in fs2024 as I have removed 2020 and don't really want install it again.

There are several messages in the Captain Sim forum indicating that it does work in fs2024. Reads like it can be installed directly into your community folder there. I'm going to give it a try.

at least it looks very nice I think:

the sound is from the DC-3, there's only one paintscheme (not this one), I see no machine guns and I have no pilot yet, but they promised a paintkit...

[Priller]

WOW @jankees you've already painted it?

Priller

 

[jankees]

painting is a big word, I added swastikas, a squadron badge and changed the registration, that's all

 

[dvj]

Update. Purchased. Does not appear in MS2024, although unpacked and loaded into the community folder. OK in MS2020.

 

[hangarrat101]

Machine guns can be turned on and off from the one board I think. I’ve seen some reports saying it works fine in msfs and others saying it doesn’t work at all.

 

[dvj]

Very nice in MS2020.

 

[jankees]

there is an immersion panel that switches on the MG's, but I can't see it, it's located behind the pedestal, just outside my view. Really annoying.
Still, looks great I think

Can't seem to find a manual. Any pointers?
