F-35A, -B and -Cs at Eglin AFB (screenshots)









Above are some images of the F-35A, -B and -C flying nearby Eglin AFB... Unfortunately I do not have much time to work on this project, nor I will for few days... but as you can see, Beta 2 is not far away. Maybe it will take a couple of weeks.

This pictures look great. I like your first version of F-35 for FSX. I look forward to new version. Great work. Thank you. Michal (Czech republic)

Dino, I have noticed that all ordnance is color coded as inert (dummy) - blue. Is it on purpose?

Dino,
These look lovely....
I understand that you are still hard at work with these, so I don't intend on bothering you too much with more questions...
However, I am wondering, with all the changes to the 3 variants, are there going to be some programming additions/improvements/features to the NEWER models cockpit interface?
(Things like HOTAS features for the controls, more stores management capabilities with say VRS TACPACK and weapons release capabilities; just to name a few... )

Also, how will these be sold? Free upgrades to existing users or separate pay ware versions?
Thanks
Jim

@Jiri

No, that is just by chance...but given that the model will not have any weapons functionality, we may call it "a feature"...

@Jim

No, major updates to the Virtual Cockpit functionality are beyond the scope of this project (which already grew to dimensions that are hard to manage for the time I have).
There will be several fixes and minor improvements, but most of the virtual cockpit will be unchanged.
My plan is to deliver a F-35 package with all three variants.
Although I am still undecided, I would prefer to release it as payware since the development costs were quite high for me. If so I'll try to arrange a discount for existing customers.

ottimo lavoro dino,potresti implementare il modello anche in altri smulatori tipo dcs world
o in x plane 10.Curisota...Lo scenario degli screen?

Grazie - ma il modello sarà solo per FSX e Prepar3d... Lo scenario è "autoprodotto" con Flight Simulator Earth Tiles - Eglin Air Force Base e dintorni. Lo distibuirei pure, ma credo che le foto aree che ho utilizzato abbiano il copyright (controllerò).

WONDERFUL air-craft, thank you VERY much for the F-35s, although they can still use with a bit of tweaking as they are still a bit awkward to operate, but overall very computer-friendly (most of the time), and all free!
