As far as I could tell, they handled just the same, the only difference i noticed was the airspeed I could get out of them. It's just no comparison at all to our JSBSim beauties like the SenecaII or the P-51D where the FDM feels even the torque from spinning up the engine. The FSX experience reminded me of badly tuned YaSIm models - it sort of gets the rough characteristics right, but that's about all. How can you say such nonsense without anyone to react ? Obviously compare the worst YASim with the best JSBSim will always be beneficial for JSBSim. But the opposite will be benefit YASim. This is ridiculous. Dc 3, IAR80, F14 etc. ... This kind of remark has no place here, and especially not by you. FS X was released in 2006. What is really surprising is that a person like you never had the curiosity to test it before today. What is it then for X-Plane, Fly II Legacy and all the others ? And I am speaking not even of older sim. FS 1, FS II, FS 3, FS 4, FS 5, Gunship, Knight of the Sky, Reach The Sky of, A320, F15II, F29 Retaliator, Falcon, Falcon 4, IL 2, Flanker 2.0, Lock On, etc. .. . Finally all these simulators that have existed since 30 years ago. (for information, I almost everyone here. their box with their instructions etc ...). And then FX X is dead. It no longer exists. If you compare, do it with what exists. Xplane 10 (64 bit) or Prepar3D, this is the surviving of FS X (production of Lockheed Martin) Regards Emmanuel -- BARANGER Emmanuel http://helijah.free.fr http://embaranger.free.fr |

It's still being sold (you can buy brand new copies from Amazon, right now) and it's still heavily supported by the third-party developer community. The geneology(sp!) of FSX goes like this: ESP -> FSX | -> Prepar3D The Lockheed guys are doing some great work with Prepar3D. g. -- Proud owner of F-15C 80-0007 http://www.f15sim.com - The only one of its kind. http://www.diy-cockpits.org/coll - Go Collimated or Go Home.

Well said G. While I appreciate Arnt's contributions, I too find his double-dot convention infuriating and almost unreadable. Alasdair |

But the opposite will be benefit YASim. This is > ridiculous. This was not a comparison between YASim and JSBSim, we all know both have their strengths and weaknesses. It was a comparison between a badly tuned YASim model and normal FSX behaviour. So even there YASim beats FSX when the YASim models is properly tuned.
