Don't get me wrong, I've LOVED this aircraft since FS2004 BUT....They do seem a wee bit under-nourished...:kilroy:

I'd agree. It's not a huge scaling issue, but I think it's noticeable when comparing the pics.
 
They been hitting the hydroxycut a bit to hard, LOL :costumes:
 
It seems to me that in flight simming the crew is nearly always scaled too small as compared to the airframe.

I'm 6'2" and 260 lbs. I take up the BULK of the cockpit in a Cessna 172. I can take you for a ride, but you and I will become very cozy.

I don't even want to talk about a Cessna 150 or 152, and in a Diamond DA-40 I hit regularly hit my head on the canopy.

Yet I see these very comfortable crews sporting around in these virtual airplanes....
 
I went over to their site but I only see the old FS9 converted to FSX....nothing new!!!!!.......
 
They do seem a bit small... .but, nothing like the WOP B-17 crew from the earlier boxed versions.....
