Sounds interesting. We've been trying to get Mad Catz to provide information after our contact there suddenly left the company. Hopefully someone will contact us after Gamescom.

Hmmmm, this is the first I've heard of this. Sounds interesting. However, my skepticism remains high....but I registered the callsign Toonces just in case.

I got an email saying they're starting squadron sign-ups now.
I have to admit that I'm intrigued by the idea of signing on with an F-111 squadron.
Anyway, the forums are dead and although I think this is a great idea, I am still very, very skeptical. I hope somebody reviews this program(?).

The review sounds good but the problem I have is the cost its expensive. Also for videos they should avoid using labels on their aircraft.

Well I have it and it's far from a scam.
Shady documentation? Can you be more specific? The manual is quite extensive.
I enjoy the "simulator flights" in T-6B and currently I'm doing the check rides to graduate to T-45. It's nice addition to DCS flying.

You'll have to post some screenshots then and tell us how the T45C compares to Dinos T45C and also the weapons etc.

Not having much joy with this :-(
Install took forever, huge download. Hung on first run, and 2nd run, but in different place. Third run got into a plane, but resolution was 10*7 so tried to get into FSX menu to change...hung again.
Rebooted and checked FSX still worked...CP has overwritten the standard FSX.CFG, luckily I use two CFGs with different names, one for DX9 and one for DX10, so they're fine.
Tried again, in cockpit (Razbam T6), ran tutorial mission. Still 10*7. Mission a little boring so tried to reset resolution, hung again.
Editted CFG file for 19*10 resolution, started CP, hung on start screen.
I wish I hadn't bothered, but having put a lot of effort in already will persevere...
Anyone making good progress?
Cheers Keith
