Looks like it has wing flex!! Something that I think is missing far too often outside of the heavies.... :D
 
Oh wow, just in time. With my F86 SP1 in the dumps, this will fill the gap in my free time very nicely.

If I read the simmarket post correctly, you can purchase the base version for 22.61 Eu, then get the collectors edition for 10 Eu, saves 2 Eu over the 34.51 Eu price.

I'm hoping someone will post a decent review. Now are the flight dynamics?? I wasnt able to tell from the film due to the fiming style..
Thanks..

Are the wings visible from the VC? How are the Afterburner effects?

No wings visible from the VC. AB effects could look better IMO but this is minor.

Pilot and Weapons Officer animations are some of the best ever in a flight sim.

The manual is detailed and easy to follow. Numerous loadout configurations. Lots of buttons to set, some don't do anything.

Textures look great, but the stencles are a bit blurry. You'll get a sonic boom effect at MACH 1. Wing flex, cockpit vibrations.

Really too early to say much more.

It looks like a fine model but no wing views from the VC, no sale. I've sat in both an F-111F and a FB-111A and each had it's wings fully forward. From the cockpit, the middle-outer portion of the wing was easily visible and looking straight back, the Glove Vanes as well. I guess there had to be some tradeoffs with the animations that may have prohibited adding wing VC views but for me, this is a must for a higher end FSX model if the wings of the real bird are visible from the cockpit. Now that all the choices are in, going to get the JF version soon.

What's weird is that I can see the port nav light on the end of the "invisible" wing with the wings extended. LOL JF does offer wing views and a few more features, sharper textures.
