But what of the Latécoere 631? That thing's hilarious. It's like a flying ship, with a massive bridge and a flagpole on her bow!
I've really been liking some of the recent local legend stuff. The quality's been going way up. The AN-2's a banger, too.
Angel, the Area paint is an Ecuadorean airliner from back in time. You should try to fly from SEGU (Guayaquil) to either SECU (Cuenca) or the Capital (Quito) those are challenging flights over the Andes!!! Lots of fun and challenging. Thanks. I enjoy your videos.
Well that sound interesting, I think I'll try out your suggestion.
sometimes I love simple. It is a fun plane…thank you ..great video and great flying!
In those days real men just peed out the side door,💦 "Pressurization be damned!" 🤣
XD
False. They just stepped outside.
I know this was just a first look so thanks for doing the video. However, you forgot a couple of things. The engines are coded to spin up on the starters BEFORE you throw the mags. 15 blades just like a B17. Fun to watch. Shame you missed it. If you know the B17 you should really know this. The reason for engine cuts is misuse or no use of fuel pumps at the appropriate times. The area around the windscreen is bland because it is bland in the real machine. By the way the one in the Smithsonian does fly. It is the second rebuild after the ditching in the river. It is now decommissioned however. Flight modeling is based on pre-1940 version before the TWA ships and their superchargers came along so don't expect late B17 performance and handling, you won't get it. Finally, apart from the Area scheme which is real, we are restricted by licensing issues to what liveries can be carried in the Marketplace. A significant upgrade is currently in the workshop and will be out soon and we are doing some free RW liveries.
Morse code radio.
Now THAT is retro !
I like that there's a sign directly in front of the pilot's view that says "no acrobatic maneuvers, including spins, approved." Like how many pilots were trying to do aileron rolls and loops in that plane before they had to post a sign?
But looking at the price I wouldn't expect it to be study level. I guess it's best to get it now while it's on sale.
These planes stay on sale if you got the PD.
That... i mean, i'd never try it in something that big and that old :D
Someone stole their grandpa's 1942 Plymouth steering wheel for it!😮
XD
The mens lavatory is up front. No, really. 😉
I've been enjoying this plane, it's one of my favorite real world aircraft, but I agree it doesn't sound very nice on the inside. The outside is great! Not sure what went wrong here like the Trimotor when their DC-3 is so perfect in this regard. I hope they're able to come back and give it some polish.
Also, I've never had my engines cut out like that. 🤔
I was a bit surprised with the Tri-Motor and B307 sounds from inside. Like you said, the DC3 is phenomenal. I flew in a DC3 last month and got to spend a few minutes chatting with the pilots in flight while getting a video. Came home and replicated the power settings in the sim and the sound is almost identical. Fingers crossed they might have an update for sound for the Tri-Motor and Stratoliner one day.
IIRC the devs for the DC3 broke a couple of microsoft's rules regarding sounds on official co-operations and got in a little bit of trouble
It also looks very similar ti the Curtiss C46 Commando
does a bit!
Tanker is a Ford CEO 1937
Actually
Plus acc windbreaker on the fuselage :3 Australian New Pilot study
Even with the PD discount I wish I hadn't bought it. The sounds are just terrible--which seems to be an Aeroplane Heaven thing in general.
It's better then nothing at all
How did they go from this beautiful plane to the abomination of a 707 😂
Looks like a cross between a B17 and a DC3
yup
It sort of is, its literally a b17 with a fat sausage body to accommodate for passengers, and the dc3 was very influential so naturally it looks a bit like it since they're from the same era and all
Engines start way too fast. Seems like it instantly gets to speed. 😊
I think you had engine problems because you didn't start the engines properly. After prime and start is engaged, you must count roughly to five and then turn on magnetos - one at a time. This plane is a beauty but buggy and needs an update. Sounds are not the greatest. You can switch to Garmin 540/430, which you didn't show, but then you lose your gauges. Despite this. ILS approach works and it has WTT (Working Title Technology built in! This allows for approach to be activated automatically and navigation to switch from NAV to VLOC automatically. This should not be in this old plane. But if you have 530/430 on, you have no gauge to observe the glidescope. I have the GTN 750 premium, so I get it there. More work needed on this plane.
That part of the engine start sequence isn’t simulated 🤓 it’s a surface deep feature. If not they wouldn’t have started.
@@AvAngel Maybe so. It is a bit buggy.
I think your throttle are not synced it flew perfect for me . A 2 hour flight.
I love your reviews. But the gyropilot is buggy on this add on, plus there is no magnetic compass, poor
This is a low quality aircraft I wouldn't buy. There are better alternatives at this price point.
I disagree. For the price it's great. It's not worth big money, But it's definitely worth the price of a hamburger.
I wonder how many of those aircraft suffered the same fate as early Comets due to metal fatigue around those sqare windows.Never a good idea in a pressurised fuselage.......................................
Quite possibly a lot, but only 15 were made, they were out of date almost immediately.
Not even one, because this one didn't fly that high compared to Comet or any modern airliner. Usually fly at around 16000ft with cabin altitude at 8000ft. Max. 20000ft with cabin altitude at 12000ft. The comet was flying above FL300 while keeping the cabin altitude below 10000ft, much" higher than this one means much higher pressure applied which was then became a problem with the square window design.
Don’t be a SQUARE !
hi
I’m sorry but you are very wrong, is not an Colombian livery (airline) if you notice, you can read the word Ecuatorianas, Quito, and you can see the Ecuadorian Flag 🇪🇨 in the tail, this means that is from ECUADOR. Aerovías Ecuatorianas was a defunct airline that operated from 1951 to 1969 in ECUADOR (not in Colombia)
Close enough for government work :D (my bad, get my South American airlines mixed up)
Who cares? Small mistake that has no bearing on the quality of the aircraft.
@@He_that_has_eyes Me and others... who cares about your comment?? nobody
@@ChesterPlay380 I’m pretty sure there’s literally no one bitching that she said the wrong country aside from you
Another disappointing aircraft dumped on us by Asobo. This team does incredible things but then they go and spoil it all be giving us odd-ball aircraft - we deserve better. Asobo really needs to get real and provide us with decent stuff. I feel at times that the team do not care what we end-users think or want. I know that sounds unfair but really - I have lost confidence in Asobo after seeing so much third rate items come down the pipeline. Why good developers are producing third rate items is beyond me: Asobo should be a control point and knock back anything that doesn't meet a high standard.
It’s because Microsoft is moving on to flight sim 2024. They’re giving us just enough to keep us giving them our money. But I’m betting they’re putting their main effort towards the next flight sim
This plane is pretty bad. Hopefully, Microsoft will stick with Carenado for Local Legends/Famous Flyers.
Aeroplane Heaven products aren't very good and neither is their attitude towards customers.
The planes nice specifically the polished version it's nice to appreciate it then have no stratoliner to fly
I bought it. It’s shit. Constantly banks to the right. Just a straight line hop is a battle in this plane.
