Product Information Publishers: Description: A 75 year old warbird. Download Size: 144 MB - Base 12 MB - Accu-Sim Format: Download Simulation Type: FSX Reviewed by: AVSIM Staff Reviewer & AVSIM Senior Staff Reviewer - April 3, 2011 Introduction The Supermarine Spitfire is one of the most famous and, with its elliptical wings, one of the most recognizable aircraft of World War II. So far, there have been at least three payware Spits for FSX (and even more, before that, for FS2004). This one makes four. Why another Spitfire? To answer that question, we teamed up two of our reviewers, Aidan Sandri and David Wilson-Okamura. Installation/Documentation David says: installation of both packages, the main aircraft and the Accu-Sim expansion pack, was automated and uneventful in Windows 7 (64-bit).

Jan 21, 2018 The RealAir Spitfire 2008 package is brimming with innovative features, many completely new for FSX. Main features:-The Merlin-powered Mark IX and XVI are.

Wings of POWER 3: Spitfire Movie with Accu-Sim Installed (Accu-Sim Expansion Pack is an add-on to the Wings of POWER 3: Spitfire Aircraft).

So was a reinstallation two weeks later. My only complaint is that A2A created a new folder at the top of my Documents folder. As a writer, that’s something I use every day, and I’m not keen on someone else adding to the top of the stack (which “A2A” will probably be if your Documents folder is sorted in alphabetical order).

But that’s minor. There was also a problem with the assignment of controller axes.

A2A has created a small program to handle this, but it would not accept my usual assignment for elevator trim, a rotary axis on the Saitek X45 throttle controller. This is an older controller which has been replaced by the popular X52 and X52 Pro. But apparently there are several of us who still have them, because a couple of users mentioned the same problem on the A2A support forum.

If you have FSUIPC, there’s a workaround on the forum. For the time being though, I’ve just reassigned a couple of joystick buttons. There is a lot of documentation: 100 pages for the Pilot’s Notes, plus 79 pages for Accu-Sim. That’s a blessing and a curse. It’s complete, but it’s also a lot to read.

In reality though, a lot of it is pictures and you really don’t have to read all of it right away to start flying. But once you do, you are going to want more information (soon, if you’re flying with Accu-Sim). And when you do, the manual will be waiting for you. There’s also a wealth of advice on the support forum.

Virtual Cockpit Aidan says: The virtual cockpit of the Spitfire, to say the least, is brilliant. There are all the little details you would expect to see on a 75 year old warbird, everything from the little scratches in the cockpit to reflections on the gauges. The overall 'feel' and look of the cockpit did make me think I was sitting in a real MkI/MkII Spitfire the entire time - with TrackIR this also did not fail to impress me! One thing that did catch my attention during my flight time was that everything in the cockpit is clickable and has an effect on what the flight will do. Like the 'vent switch' on the top right of the cockpit; if you were descending, the cockpit windows would fog up as the hot air would build up causing moisture, obviously if this was on you would not experience fogged up windows. One thing I did notice about the gauges in the virtual cockpit was that there was no 3D needle, for such an overall complex and detailed cockpit I was rather disappointed to see something so 'little (when compared to the rest of the product)' missed out, though it isn't a buggy 2D needle, I would have liked to have see it in 3D. To add to my 3D talk, all the handles and switches are in 3D - I struggled to see just a 'texture' that did not have something placed on top of it.

David adds, “All of the gauges are 3D. (If you want to test, zoom up close and watch the gauge faces blur while the needles stay sharp.)” There was one button I loved to click before starting the engines (which in the spitfire, I believe you are meant to do). There is a gauge called 'Gallons Fuel,' next to it there is a button called Bott Tank (in the MkII, or Top & Bott Tank in the MkI), when you press this button the spring will bounce around and tell you how many gallons of fuel is in the fuel tank.

This is a part of the Accu-Sim in the Spitfire, which I’m sure David will go further in-depth to later. VC Detail To end the part on the Virtual Cockpit, I will talk about a few of the animations that can be seen from the Virtual Cockpit (some will be Accu-Sim features). The first one is the 'flap' switch; once you press F7 or the actual switch on the cockpit, the flaps will fall quickly, now push the lever up and look to your right, you will see a small flap beginning to shut - this is a visual reference check for your flaps to ensure that they are down. Another animation is watching the engine start. Once you are ready to start and have set the auto-start on, do not push the throttle 1/4 of an inch forward or the engine will just spin and not start, again, just another cool animation you can watch!
