Title: What aircraft would you like CS to make?
Post by DevereIII on Aug 3rd, 2009 at 2:33pm
Ok, this one was tough... I voted for the 777. A good 777 is non-existant in the FS community. WE NEED ONE! So, even though I've heard rumors that "others" may be looking at the 777 after the 737 NGX release, I'm still voting for it here, since with the "others" it is, after all, still a rumor.
Was a tough choice though with that and the 731, 732... We have good 737's out there but they start with the -300 model. Since most -100's and -200's seem to be retired I leaned to the 777.
The DC-10 and earlier 747 variants (they are out there but very simply developed compared to todays standards) were under my button as well as the SAAB 340! Like I said... Was a hard one for me!!  LOL...

If the RFP 747's were FSX compatable; that would alleviate some of the pain here... LOL...

Thanks!
Robert

It's not on the list, but personally I'd like to see a Bae 146/Avro RJ. As for a long hauler, I'd love an L-1011 done to captain sims standards.

I love to state my naked opinion on occasion  ;D  We obviously don't need any Airbusses.  Besides, something tells me our friends at Captain Sim just aren't the folks to make it, or the 787 or the 777, for that matter.  Not too crazy about a Russian Ejet, nor other Russian airliners, although I would definitely buy a Russian fighter of any kind.

It has been a long time since we have had a real good classic 747 -- RFP is right.  CLS does a pretty good job and I like it.  The animations are somewhat Sim-esque.  But Captain Sim could do such a good job on this.  They just seem to excel when it comes to lots of dials.  I would also like a DC-8; there's a real classic that has been neglected. Or even a 707 for FSX.  Forget the past.  It would not be like starting from scratch.

MD-80s we already have and they're about to get a lot more attractive.  As for another big tri-jet... well... we already have one well-done dinosaur in the MD-11.  

But I agree.  Let's have a 767 beyond reproach first.  Then let's keep working on it until we can just shake it in everybody's face lol

How about this for thinking outside of the box: a Connie.  The most beautiful airplane ever built, and people clamoring for one.  A2A should have followed up their 377 with one, but since they didn't, the door is wide open for Captain Sim.

Yep.  Definitely the Connie.  With exhaust flames.  Next question  ;D

The A300-600 featured the same two crew cockpit as the A310.  It is bigger than the A310.  The earlier A300s had a Flight Engineer.  I would prefer an A300 between the two.

Post by High Iron on Aug 7th, 2009 at 4:08am
This was tough, they are all good choices.

I do believe though that Captain Sim is top of the dogs on the porch when it comes to classical aircraft.

Although Airbus aircraft are neat, their cockpits are not all that difficult to render with all the CRT screens. This is not a bash against Airbus, I just think most aircraft with glass cockpits are produced by many third parties because they are considerably easier and faster to create. The old gauges on the other hand are a very different story, and most third party producers stray away from them or dumb them down. The only exception to this would be the A310.

Since the cockpit is my office, it's were everything counts to me, so I say bring on the legacy jetliners. DC10, L1011, B737-200, 747-200, and DC7. I also think a DC 8 Super 60 series would also make a good addition. No need to mention the B707, as I know it's already in the works. I too think the BAe 146 is also a good suggestion. Also, since most of these aircraft are getting scarce, I think it's important to gather the data on them, before it becomes next to impossible in the upcoming years as these aircraft retire and critical details are lost. My personal addition would be a Convair 580 or 640.

Cheers,
Thad

No, that was about the UHDT.  I have no idea about the 707, and was questioning the previous poster who said it was already established it was coming.  Safe to say SOMETHING's coming :-)  What, I have no idea.  Could be Concorde for all I know.

All Captain Sim people are trained in advanced techniques of resisting interrogation by ex-KGB agents.

EDIT: Okay, saw the promise of the 707 for FSX on the 707 board, which I don't normally visit.

Captsim,

The Boeing 737-100/200 was the most popular aeroplane in the world with hundreds of operators. Think of all the liveries and variants you could offer. In addition, most of the gauges from the 727 series can be used in the VC.

I think the 737 is the obvious choice for Captsim's next project.

Look guys, this is a great democratic debate on which aircraft CS should make.

We can't neccassarily put down our most favourite aircraft of all time-sees though, as this wont help CS..

They need to fill the gap in the FS market.
CS [thank god] are now only making FSX add-0ns, which is a very positive step in the right direction.

So now we need to ask ourselves the question... "what aircraft is not properly simulated in FSX, which is popular in the real world and would be flown [bought] by us virtual pilots..?"

My honest answer to this topic post has to look at ^ this question, and also build on CS strengths..

Forget the Russian Commercials guys, i dont think anyone would buy it for CS to break even.
I personally would hate to see a Military jet, FSX is just not the place for military aircraft.

My suggestion out of the list [and a few more]

Boeing 777-200
Boeing 737-300+300+500
Dash 8
Boeing 787 dreamliner.

All the best gents,

Post by ronyo30 on Oct 25th, 2009 at 7:01pm
There is many gaps in the FS market as far as aircraft go, but the biggest gap for me is the short haul aircraft. There are plenty of mid/long haul planes out there, albeit some better than others(CS has three good ones) I think the the regional aircraft have been seriously neglected though. I can't speak for everyone but I prefer a flight that is an hour to two hours long and regional planes are perfect for this. While the early 737's would be my vote on the list I would prefer any of the aircraft listed below:
-Embraer ERJ-145
-CRJ-200
-Fokker F.28 series.
-Bae/Avro RJ series.
-Dornier 328 jet.
Just my opinion, non of these planes are well represented in FS.

Could not agree more on the EMB-120 or Saab 340. A CS version of either of these planes would be amazing. Second 777, flight simmers need a good 777.

I voted Russian Fighters, but I would like to see a decent F/A-22 Raptor. The only F-22s that work in FSX ,or even exist, are the Iris YF-22 (which frankly sucks), the AlphaSim F-22 (which is only for FS2004), and the Acabus F-22 (which I haven't tried, but it's probably the best one yet).

Folks, their will be many more Triple 777's; and if you use FS9, there is little more you could want other than the Tinmouse 737 which is still being enhanced on that platform...................Regardless, my vote is for the "Queen of the Skies" Classic series (747) and L1011 Tristar. Both of these aircraft are in need of developers willing to bring them into the FS world. RFP is aging, if not antique already; though it is still quite a remarkable sim for having been around since FS2000. If Captain Sim could get even close to the level of authenticity offered by RFP, while adding in a little bit more glamour, I would be thankful.......... ;)

I voted for the P3 Orion (because I'm ex-Navy ASW flight crew) and the L-1011. Captain Sim could do an amazing job on these hard-to-find airplanes.

But: the airplane I would MOST like to see Captain Sim do next is the fantastic heavy-lifter Russian freighter that was designed to carry their Buran space shuttle and is now for hire to people who need to haul HUGE loads- nothing else that flies is big enough. I think it is the Antonov AN-225, but I could be mistaken about that designation.

I can't think of ANYONE more qualified (or motivated, since they're Russian) to do this airplane "right" in FSX than Captain Sim!

Think of the fun all of us non-Russians will have deciphering the Cyrillic-marked gauges and switches!!

Hmm... now that I think about that, maybe Captain Sim could take pity on the rest of the world and do an English cockpit...   ;D

Whatever they do next, I know that it will be amazing!

Title: Re: What aircraft would you like CS to make?
Post by Tyrion on Dec 12th, 2009 at 5:05pm
What you mean is indeed the Antonov An-225 Mriya.
Also a nice aircraft is it's little (little in relation to the 225 anyway) brother the An-124.
I see those sometimes at Ostend Bruges internation airport. Amazing aircraft!!
When they're empty, they can take of with a slight nose down attitude!!
There are good freeware models of these aircraft, but no systems simulation.

L-1011 hands down. I have never seen a decent L-1011 for Flightsim in either the freeware or payware community. The joy of flying that plane needs to be brought to FSX. One of the best planes I ever had the pleasure of riding in.

After being on an AirTran 717-200 a few times this past week and getting to spend a few minutes talking to the pilots in the cockpit, I would be interested in a 717-200. There doesn't seem to be a quality version of this a/c on the market at the moment.

I enjoy boeing products, and have nearly all of the modern 700 series aircraft, from the 727 till the 777 (one variant of each), and dont think there needs to be another boeing product, itd be nice to see something like a tupelev or the saab, just something that isnt normally done, there are millions of boeing products out there. That being said, if it must be boeing, do a 777 or 787, simply because there arent very many payware, or even freeware options for either.

After flying CS products (757/767/C-130 and 727) it is so boring and truly a pain to go to other developpers to have a half decent A330/340/A320 products. CS just raise the bar and I can't enjoy the other anymore, so I would just love a CS Airbus A330/A340 family product. Otherwise agree on the L-1011 / DC-10 / B777. No need for 737 if another company will relase one for FSX, better find a new airplane that is not covered by a quality developper already.  Happy new year !

I think that CS should work with another company on making a 777, 787, or A380. That would look awsome, because both CS and another company are very good at creating aircraft.

A 787? It hasnt even gone into service yet so information is limited and yet to change. ProjectAirbus are making a quality A380 for FREE which will have a VC and 2DPanel AND a Virtual Cabin!

But I support you with the 777 ;)

The 777 already has been made by another company Publishing and Aerosim, although there not as high standards as aircraft from CS are there still fairly good and would bring down sales. However the L-1011 or DC-8 would have zero competition making them a good choice.

i really dont agree about the 777 being made for FSX.

Listen the another company project was made for fs2004, in about 2001,, this is really old, pathetic add-on.

If you check the another company/avsim/ ANY fs forum,

everyone seems to be screaming for a 777

I took the 777 out of the list because another company is working on a very detailed one.  Personally, I think we need a 747 Classic series encompassing the 747-100, 747-200, 747-300, Air Force One, and the fourth air command communications ship. in use with the USAF.

Dear Sirs,

I was just wondering if you would consider responding to the Poll regarding what Flightsimmers want most in terms of a new airplane?

As you can see it's a B737-100/200.

Would you care to comment on whether or not it is your intention to look at this aircraft as a possible future modeling project?

I look forward to hearing from you.

Title: Future Aircraft Considerations
Post by High Iron on Mar 16th, 2010 at 4:49am
I hope in CS's future considerations after cleaning up on the Boeings, is some activity on some other very underrepresented manufactures and popular aircraft. To me the Lockheed and Douglas/McDonell Douglas aircraft have really been under served. The few models that do exist were made primarily for FS9 and didn't even do that sim any justice. A Super Connie 1049, Lockheed 188L Electra, or a Convair 580/640 would be very good classic examples of piston and turbo props, the latter two using the same or simular Allison engines as used on the C-130 Hercules. One very neglected airliner is the Lockheed L1011. What is available in pay-ware; (two I think), are nothing exciting and have very crappy VC's. A good DC10 does not really exist either. CLS, has one, but again ported from FS9 and has a really poor VC as it is one of their earlier ones before they started getting more proficient at creating them. A fully functioning and stable DC8 is non-existent for FSX, and a good DC9 wouldn't hurt. Since the demise of Microsoft Aces studio, it looks like FSX will be with us for quite a while. Much time to do these popular but under served aircraft in the FS community. I'm growing weary of paying $40 for something akin to junk because the screen shots look good. I would rather part with $100 and get something that is very satisfying. Currently Captain Sim is #1 among a very few that can deliver in this department.

Cheers,
Thad

i think it has to be fighter planes. A very high detailed f/a18 is making its way onto fsx and other (who make the MD11) have stated that they are NOT going to produce military aircraft. Personally i think it has to be the Eurofighter Typhoon (abacus version SUCKED! and or a russian Mig 25 Foxbat ( the aircraft that enabled the creation of the aircraft like the F15). I think aircraft like this would be a huge profit for CS and would make the Flight sim community very happy indeed!!

but whatever they make I'M BUYING IT!

Mmmmm. I was hoping CS would confirm that for us.

Or at least if someone else has committed to building one we could read all about it. Anyway, I haven't heard anything about a 737-200 being made for FSX.

In addition, CS didn't put up this poll, aal763, a forum member put it up. So I assume he was the one who took the 737 off the candidate list.

Perhaps if that is the case he could say why?

Thanks anyway FTMLenny.

I would certainly like to see the Lockheed L1011 Tristar developed by CS. Especially the 500 . The Tristar was one of the most advanced of its time and I think it would be fantastic to have it created with its systems like DLC (Direct Lift Control) and autopilot. By the way the Tristar was  the first widebody to receive FAA  certification for Cat-IIIc autolanding, which approved the TriStar for completely blind landings in zero-visibility weather performed by the aircraft's autopilot.  Hey, the Tristar is my favorite widebody and in my opinion one of the best looking there ever was. I can just picture it now in my favorite livery: BWIA (old colors) Long live the Tri-Star of the skies!

No one has answered my question regarding why the 737-100/200 was taken out of the list.

dudes we already have a 727 type aircraft... I find the vote for the Tu-154 to be incredulously redundant... If i was running captain sim I would most definetly not make a repeat of practically an identical aircraft within the same 1-2 year time period.  making a 727 and then a 154 would be like making a DC-10-10 and then a DC-10-30.... Rubbish! common people. seriously lets see a bit more diversity in aircraft type/market/purpose etc.  

We need CS to make a good 777 (which they are), a good regional jet such as CRJ series, B717 etc, an older 737, and an MD-80 type.  All of these addons in the market are sorely outdated and CS should make new ones.

Post by An-225 on May 8th, 2010 at 11:53pm
You're right, the 727 and Tu-154 are exactly the same. Especially since one is American and the other is Русскии. ::)

The Tu-154 has its own nuances that would make it a very different plane, I'm sure. The jump from an English cockpit to one in Кириллица, for starters. There is a big enough difference in purpose between the two anyway. One was designed for operation from a glass-smooth runway. The other can handle rough Arctic tundra.

You claimed to want diversity in aircraft type, and then go on to list a number of North American tube liners, which either have been done before or are being done right now.

I say, bring on the Russian metal. Anything at all, be it a Ту-154, Ил-62, Ил-76, Ан-124/225, Ил-86/96 etc. Спасибо. ;)

The poll is WRONG, the numbers are not accurate, for CS to look at this poll and take it seriously would be a mistake.  All the votes for 777, 737 etc were dumped into another aircraft when it was removed. The poll is saying I voted for a Saab-340, a Tu-154 and an L1011. The only one of those I actually voted for was the L1011.  since the 737 and MD-80 were removed it dumped my votes into the Saab and Tu.  This is what I mean by the poll being skewed.  They need to start a new poll if they want accurate numbers.

After just purchasing a 747-400 with a big reputation from the other company (you know who) I think FSX desperately needs a good one.
IMHO that model is badly done and I'm now sorry I bought it, the VC is a joke.

Since CS haven't done any next gen aircraft I thnk they should stick with their model and build a nice 747-100/200/300 with FE panels.

There are currently only 3 possibly 4 long range aircraft around, those being Airbus A340-500/600 and you could probably throw the A330 in as well and Boeing have the 777 and 747.EDIT: Oops I forgot the elephant in the room the A380 but that doesn't interest me.
Going by Captain Sims past efforts the newer aircraft won't be done i.e A330/340 and the 777 so that leaves us with one LR aircraft to be done.

We already have the 727 and 757 for short range, mid range is covered by the 767 and upcoming 707, so it's about time for the extra legs.  :)

The only other aircraft I really want would be an early Airbus either A300 or 310. Preferably the 300 with FE panels. But I think we need something genuinely long range first.

Post by SoulFlight on Jun 29th, 2010 at 2:43pm
I think CaptainSim does best with classic airliners. The market is much too overfilled with modern stuff and planes like the 727 are just fun. I am not always in the mood for FMS and glass cockpits.

I also think a Tu-154 (m) would be great as there is almost no russian plane out there.

Also I would like to see a DC-10, because its just beautiful and the CLS version is a bit outdated and adapted from FS9. Any classic 737s are missing for FSX too, and if you do not want to go with THAT much work after the 727 and 707, try a 737 200ADV.

In fact, the visual quality of CS planes is unmatched and I'd like to see any plane with this.  ;)

It has been a long time since we have had a real good classic 747 -- RFP is right.  


Agree with you.
No need for ANY modern Airbus. Planes need to have a reputation before they are loved. A history. They must be classics. A380 and 787 are mere new novelties, experimentals. Besides their cockpits are not interesting, just two big computers and thats all.

The glass cockpit is the death of flightsim. Cause it makes flying boring. Compare the success of the 727 and 707 with the 757-767. Despite the latters being current planes still flying, they are behind in flightsim.

We need a decent 747-200 or a DC10.

This Poll started in 2009 when CS was deciding the next project. Last October the result came out: Its the 737. So now they´ll work on possibly two years until its released.

Funny is that nobody got it right. The 737 was not even in the poll list. Yet if I think of it now, it was the right choice. The 737 is the one missing in the CS trilogy 707-727-737 adding the 757-767.

So I dont think the poll is helping too much. First...ITS OLD, second, it didnt even included the right choice, no point.

To complete the Boeing series of classics Im sure they´ll include the 747-200 at a later stage.
