that's embarrassing, so i made a list of improvements to make it worth $30.

- the nose of a 787 is not from a 767.
- the windows are far too large, in the incorrect places and why are the doors not aligned?
- the flaps...look nothing like that.
- the engines casing appears to be missing it's main feature...
- ...and isn't grey.
- the cockpit windows are too small.
- the fuselage is too wide.
- the engines are far too small.
- has anyone looked at a photo? who said 'oh yes, that looks good.'?

apart from the model...
- the vc is awful. why articulate more?

rant over. this sort of rubbish is nearly as bad as ebay sellers copying freeware - but at least you'd have spend £15 on dave maltby's trident; which is good.

gah!

😳 Dihedral beyond belief.

Surely, people have learnt to give Abacus a wide birth?

Abacus is an exception. It should be freeware but somebody screwed up. Wink

I got abacus air taxi pilot and its not particularilly good - I got it mainly for the da42, and other small jets and props tht it comes with and wasnt very happy with it to say the least...eveything on the panel was too small, with bad eyesight i had to lean really close to the screen to see the instruments, all the 5 aircraft had the same cockpits nearly, with a few minor differences, they all had the same flight charecteristics - very jumpy with tiny inputs producing big effects, very annoying when landing - the list goes on.
