Flight Sim FansFollow

It's been out for awhile now, but I just picked up A-10C Warthog last night since i noticed it was on sale. I also own Black Shark (KA-50 helo sim) from the same company and knew going into it that these guys make a complex, ultra realistic sim.

This is no exception. The cockpit is much more user friendly than the Black Shark (helps that the dash is in english and not russian) and it is still insanely realistic. I think the engine start-up tutorial alone took over a half hour, and i retained about 5% of the info.

The game also offers a "game mode" as did Black Shark which gives it a more arcadey feel if you'd prefer not to spend your gametime on the tarmac flipping the 100 switches required to start your engines.

This games arcade mode reminds me a lot of how flight sims were before they started making interactive cockpits if you're into that.

Besides, it's the @#%^IN A-10!

If interested, you can youtube A-10C Warthog, and I think the first video is a producer's notes on the Start Up to see just how detailed it is. I'd link if i could access youtube here.
