Let’s talk about that SSG747-8v2.

The much anticipated SSG 747-8 V2 was released a few days ago and immediately came under heavy fire from the community (at least the vocal parts of the community) for being a buggy and incomplete mess. I’m not sure that’s 100% fair but let’s dive in and see where things stand in the release version. Hopefully, in the not too distant future I’ll get to review it again after some updates, but what would you get today if you spent your $65 to purchase the aircraft? This review will be organized and scored based on my review guidelines which can […]

Colimata Concorde v1.0 Review

Disclosure: My copy of the Concorde FXP was purchased out of pocket. This is not a review copy or a gift. I love the Concorde. I have loved it since I first saw one on the ground at Dulles while traveling. In 2006, while on a family vacation, I was privileged to visit BA Concorde G-BOAG at her home in Seattle and that only made me love Concorde more. I know very little about how to fly Concorde. I have never flown the FS Labs Concorde, and my only Concorde simulation experience has been poorly rendered and very simple freeware […]

Magknight 787-9 Review

Disclosure: I purchased my copy of the Magknight 787-9 from Simcatalog with my own money. Edit 5/15/2019: This review is NOT for the Magknight 787 Aviator Edition. This product is no longer available. An Aviator Edition review will happen at some point, but I intend to let them get the product more complete before I review it. The scoring in this review is also, in hindsight, ridiculous. Do not use any material in this review to make a decision on purchasing the product. I’ll review it again when it reaches a more complete state. I recently got a request to […]

Drzewiecki Design Baku XP Review

This is not a review copy, I purchased this software from x-plane.org. If ever I am given a review copy or asked to review something, there will be a similar disclosure statement. Welcome to my second ever review. Here we will take a look at the recently released Drzewiecki Designs Baku XP scenery. Included in the scenery, according to Drzewiecki Designs, is a detailed rendition of UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport, lite versions of all other Azeri airports, and city landmarks. The star of the product is of course UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport itself. The main modern terminal building is […]

Pilot Plus Ibiza Review

Disclaimer: I paid for this piece of software like many of you will, what follows is my opinion. If ever I am given a review copy of something, I’ll notify you in a similar way. I don’t know how often I’ll be reviewing things, but I thought that I would give it a shot. I probably won’t ever do video reviews, although I do plan on doing videos that tie in with a review that has been published. In this case a video of me flying from Ibiza to London will release at the same time as this article, although […]
