P3D. Yep! That's right! I am still enjoying this wonderful aircraft! As I have already provided a FirstLook of the Twotter Extended cargo version. I included the passenger version with the Tundra wheels in this version. I didn't have time to look for a proper livery for this region so the one provided will have to do. It looks good too! I can keep going on and on about how great this product is, but I would rather let these shots do the talking! Here is my flight this evening from Lugano to Courchevel over FTXGobal! Enjoy!

ADX FirstLook: New Plymouth Airport!
P3D. Every now and then there comes a freeware scenery that is so good, it amazes me that it's free at all. We have had many extremely highly detailed freeware works in the past that have reviled many payware developers. The most recent was Pecs Pogany which was so good, it led to my very first product review here on ADX. This time however, I am heading South and taking you with me! Let's check the latest awesome freeware: New Plymouth!

Razbam EMB-120: new renders.
FSX/P3D. Just a couple more renders of the EMB120 from Razbam. Hopefully we will see this aircraft released by Q4. We have been lacking a proper E120 since the early days of FS9. Anyone remember the old Eric Cantu model? We are looking forward to the first VC shots!

Tundra released!
FSX/P3D. Aerosoft just released the latest build 1.03 of the Twotter Extended. This version contains the tundra wheel model, tweaks to some autopilot files as well as the addition of the livery manager. Get yours now and go off-road! I myself performed a flight to Courchevel last night in the Twin Otter. What a perfect aircraft! The Twin Otter can get you into and out of just about anywhere!

Nemeth Hind incoming!
FSX/P3D. Woah these Nemeth guys have been a bit quiet lately. Next out of the ND hangar and in beta status is the legendary Hind! Didn't another developer release one just a few months back? We'll no worry, Nemeth is among the elite development companies when it comes to helicopter developments! So i'm quite sure this is the Hind you're looking for.

FlightBeam Denver. On site!
FSX/P3D. Mir of FlightBeam Studios has touched ground at KDEN. The photo shoot has begun! I really admire developers that actually go on location shoots. This is how there is no doubt we will get the most accurate and realistic rendition possible. Besides, realism and accuracy is what FlightBeam is all about! Stay tuned to your local ADX stations for all the latest info as it happens on this project!

Y'all ready for the Traumashock?!
FSX/P3D. That's right! I'm talking Tomahawk! I have been really looking forward to this baby! Even my wife jokes it's the only way to say "sit and spin" and not be a sexual sounding term... Hey, Alabeo is doing a great job so far and I am really looking forward to this one. My guess? Release by the weekend unless Alabeo tries to troll me again and releases it on Monday or Tuesday...

Funny thing happened to me today...
[My Summer] So as some of you know, I am in France for the 2013 Tour de France (now ended) and my favorite stages are always the mountain stages. A friend of mine owns a Cessna 172 and we flew down from Shoreham to see the race. I stayed up here in the French Alps for a couple weeks which is how I was able to keep the blog running while Dom was out on the Beach 200 miles away with the Supermodels. Anyway, on the way flying back to England, we ran low on fuel so we popped into Annecy to refuel when we realized there was a mechanical issue with the engine. Now stranded, we were trying to figure what to do when something big approached the airport!
Just Updated with a link you need to see!

JustFlight DC-8 external!
FSX. Now correct me if i'm wrong but... The last time we saw a payware DC-8 I believe it was the old FS9 AeroSim model. Damn that was a very long time ago! Their is a DC-8 project taking place on the FSDeveloper forums over the last couple years, but I don't know if that thing will ever get completed. JustFlight has just unleashed the first external shot of their aircraft. This one looks nice so far, but I am really hoping for the stretched cargo variant with the CFM engines!

ADX FirstLook: Skysoft Haikou Meilan!
FSX. The very first FSX payware from Skysoft reaches a very good standard of quality. We did not see any bug and most of all, every model and texture is clean and properly designed. Haikou Meilan ZJHK is also interesting for connections to Bangkok, Ventiane, Xiamen, Hong-Kong and Macao airports. Congratulations to Skysoft !

Is it real? Or is it MilViz?
FSX/P3D. The MilViz/ERS 407 is coming along very nicely. I don't think I have ever seen night textures that good! I really love the light colours and how they seem to splash about the cabin. Clearly this is some seriously talented work by the texture artist. I am really looking forward to taking this bird for a whirl!

Iris Jabiru J160C/D textured!
FSX/P3D. Wow this little baby is coming along rather quickly! Just less than a couple weeks ago, we were barely looking at the real world scout shots. A week ago, the 3DS renders. Today, an in-sim textured shot. At this pace, we may very well just be looking at release within a month. Looking forward to this!

LLH4 Megève! New for 2013!
FSX/P3D. LLH Creations has very little interest in developing airports outside of the Northern French Alps region. But that's totally okay with me! The developer has taken to updating his older projects and I just love the exciting yet challenging approaches of the LLH airports. And yes, confirmed by ME last night, all LLH sceneries work perfectly with FTX Global! Scenery now in beta!

FTXGlobal Download times...
For those of you who have purchased FTXGlobal, please give us an idea of your download time. For me at 59.4 mbps it's taking 3 hours just to get to 14%. Starting to think the server we are downloading from has a bandwidth limit. At this rate, it doesn't look like i'll be able to fulfill requests any time soon.
EDIT: The issue was the press copy server which is extremely poor at over 12 hours download time even having been downloading over night. So now my DL time is 30 min. And we bought it for all of you and your bloody requests! Cheers!

Tomahawk cockpit shots! Yeah!
FSX/P3D. With each and every product they announce, my admiration for Alabeo grows more and more. The quality and realism in Alabeo's VFR aircraft are second to none. I hope this company will never allow themselves to become defined by a certain type of product. But rather from a wide variety of products from the crop dusters to helicopters to business jets and beyond. I really believe Alabeo is the next big thing in FS. Here is the latest of the trauma bird and the panel shots look great!

Taxi2gate E.T. Joshua : First Look
FSX. While working on Orlando and Mexico airport V.2, the futur cornerstone of Taxi2gate, Cesar keeps designing new Caribbean airports. After St-Lucia, here is E.T. Joshua. Despite the small size of the airport, buildings and terminal are carefully designed with colorful textures. E.T Joshua is a great place for islands hoping along the western Caribbeans or... medium-hauls toward Caracas, Princess Juliana or Puerto Rico.

Apparently, several add-ons will complete this basepack in the future.

FSX/P3D. And coming at ya is the next set of exclusives of TVSV from Taxi2Gate. This team has come a very long way and the quality just keeps getting better and better! H am very hopeful the team will stick around the Caribbean for a bit longer in an effort to get more airports covered in the area. FYI, yes I did add P3D this time. I have been chatting with the team and George Charles (TLPC) is now 95% working in P3D. minus a couple hiccups. Ill provide shots of both airports in my FirstLook right after release! Happy Friday!

Iris Jabiru J160C/D!
FSX/P3D. I am super excited about the upcoming Jabiru J160C/D from Iris Simulations. I can remember back in the day when I would have never even looked twice at an aircraft like this. It was all about high and fast. But P3D has really taught me that little birds like this can be equally as fun and challenging if you know where to fly!

Night lighting done right!
FSX/P3D. One word: Superb! But not only are these lights brighter, deeper, and more vibrant, but guess what? You will not need to use the FTX Day and FTX Night apps to disable the lights during the day when using FTXGlobal! That's one less thing to forget to do before you fire up the sim! Lookin' great!

FSX/P3D. Always remember you read it here first: JetStream Designs is the next big developer to enter the FS market! I'll be honest, I was quite skeptical this project would reach fruition when we published the first renders. Many products that debut on FSDeveloper rarely endure the long road to completion. But, I can honestly say that I am very impressed and when you get this scenery, so will you! Let's head to the South of France where the wine flows like well.. wine! It's time to visit Marseilles!

Email hacked.
Hey folks. Somehow my personal email was hacked today and sent out a super blast of spam email to over a hundred contacts including the CEO of the company I work for, X girlfriends, developers, family, etc. If you got one of these emails, please delete it and don't click the contained links. Many of you saw a post here on ADX as well, that was an email link we set up a while back as part of my personal email. So don't worry, ADX itself was not hacked. Hopefully my efforts have corrected the issue. Okay, I am now testing D.Design NY and JetStream Marseilles. Stay tuned for those first looks!

Today, another of of our loyal readers and friend: Jerome Zimmermann has submitted a very fascinating article about Diamond Point Airstrip and his airfield experiences in both real world and in FSX. So just how good is Orbx? How amazing is 2WA1 in real life? Grab a cup of tea and join us for a nice ADX editorial!

Hehe.. Look at this.
[FS Software] Um.. okay so yeah. This in-flight IFE sort of thing. I guess you pay like $10 bucks, and you get an actual IFE for your flight with updated movies, live radio and such. Yeah. I don't really know how to present this to you guys so here is the link for you to have a look. It's now available BTW. So are they paying licenses for the material or what? I don't get it. Oh wait. I see now, you subscribe to this monthly. Screw that. I got Netflix. Cute idea though. But now that I think about it further, that call crew button should really like call some hot chick somewhere. Now THAT'S worth a subscription!
