- It has been in development for a long time
- We've not announced it
- It's not an aircraft
- It's a .....lets say a feature
- It has never been done for any MSFS version

Any guesses? I have no idea...

I've guessed as interactive flight crew (or maybe just co pilot)

Now that would be awesome

Yeah I saw that one too........... its a toughy!! I'm still wracking my brains for a guess.......... as our own KCGB said on the forum - most of the stuff people are guessing at have already been done.

It will be interesting to see what it is. Seems some people on the CaptainSim thread don't know what the definition of an aircraft is!! I still think the one thing missing in the amazingly well modelled Virtual Cockpits is people. Always seems bizzare to me to pan around in flight and look at an empty cockpit.

Jeeze I know what you mean Deane, and when there is someone in the cockpit they're about as lifelike as a 3-year olds LSD infused finger painting exercise. I got a hell of a fright when I looked around in the Diamond DA-40 cockpit to see this horrifying androgynous apparition sitting in the rear seat, half-man half-woman devilish beast... <shudder> ohmy.gif

And the other trap I see amongst designers is they make pilots too skinny and sit too upright and stiff, as if they are pressing down on the rudder pedals like brakes. In reality the body adops a very slouched position with the back quite curved when sitting.

I plumped for a "real" weaponry add-on that actually "does stuff" to the scenery (or causes damage to other aircraft). To be marketed under the name of [Total Frame Rate] KILLER! laugh.gif
