Captain sim/ Justflight C130

[DaleRFU]

Hi I have just ordered the C-130 and just woundered what people think of it if you have it?

It's brilliant with tons of features and the potential for some great flights. I've only got the base package for FS9, I'd love to get some of the other variants, espacially the J model but don't have the funds. You won't regret your purchase, just be sure to read the manual thoroughly, the only problem I've encountered is with the exits, shift-e-2 is hit and miss for a lot of aircraft so I downloaded a door gauge from avsim for that.

Great product prior to CS's support going away. The base package is very detailed and can be flown by the numbers to the real -130. The expansions are great, if you install them right, again this is were the support started to drop off. Sadly the "J" was never shipped with a separate all glass panel. Tons of repaints and really a great plane to have in your FS hangar.

Like most CS recent releases, it can be a bit of a slide show on lesser systems like mine.

Ok i finally installed the her on my system, but i am having some troble with the light system. I cant get the AC and DC genereaters to come on line so that my aircraft has power? I tried to read the manual but i couldnt make end of tail of it. Its so compliated.

Can anyone help please?
