Flying with non-EHM aircraft
« on: September 21, 2004, 08:13:15 pm »
No business TP aircraft for FS9. Piaggio P.180 does not work in FS9. As a comparable substitute, I fly the default King Air 350.

I know there is a big pressure on me about oldies, low-class planes in EuroBiz, therefore -after more opinions- the Piaggo 180 will be probably replaced with the KingAir. I cannot say a release date now, coz I never repainted an MS texture. Of course that is only one aircraft, and probably there are more behind this topic...

I am sorry to say, I think it is not a good idea to repaint payware aircrafts, because our airline is all about freeware stuff, except the GAME itself. Above this, it is everybodies choice if he use more payware stuff.

Generally, everybody should keep the rules, and if you cannot fly with a desired aircraft, our fleet offers many other choices. You can always fly with an aircraft allowed by your rank, even if the aircraft is too small, or to big for the class of flight.

Just my 2 cents...

I meant to create repaints for those planes as an alternative.

For example, we have the freeware A320 for every pilot; but those who wish to fly the PMDG A320, they can do it if we have an EHM texture for it.

Yes, I understand it. There was a discussion about the PMDG B738 and upcoming B744 too. I said, until I too do not have the payware model to test the repaint, it is a quite hard job to do...not to mention the time it takes...and only for a rather limited number of users.

Hmm sounds like a good idea to create alternative repaints as it would allow pilots who have these commercial software to fly them more as part of the airline.........but would it take very long to create an alternative repaint?

I would have to disagree. Flying the default 737-400 or FFX 737-800 does not compare to the PMDG 737 series. And though I am a fan of Mike Stone's wonderful freeware work, the PMDG Beech 1900D is a beautiful product. I worked with the 1900 for years and PMDG really captured the unique properties of this sleak commuter.

FSD International's upcoming release of the Piaggio P.180 Avanti would be a wonderful addition to the Eurobusiness fleet.

I've never textured an aircraft but I have tried. I don't know how difficult it would be to work with these paintkits but, I think it's a geat idea.

I don't know what the problem is with the EHM Class 7 aircraft, B747-400 and the B777.
When i try to fly with one of both aircraft they go their own way. If i tried to make a left or right turn the aircraft goes straight ahead or make a turn to the opposite. If i flight with an aircraft from FS9 then there is no problem. So what is the problem in this case?

Hmm......i've never heard or had this problem before........perhaps the autopilot was engaged when you tried to make the turn? Do you use a joystick for flying?
