Q400 impressions

[jalexb88 7]

Hi guys!  I would just like to say that I am very impressed with what you guys have done one the Q400! I've recently been hired as a pilot for a canadian airline (Jazz Aviation) and i'm currently in the process of doing my initial type rating on the Q400. It is a nice suprise that the Q400 was released just after my first level-d FFS session. I still have a lot to learn on the real Q400 having 10 4-hour sessions in the FFS scheduled next month, but from what I can see from the tests I made in the MJC Q400, except for minor differences in the FMS, everything is bang on. Thanks for the hard work MJC, it was worth the wait!

Alex,

 

We thank you for the kind words of support, and we hope that you will find the Q400 as a vital supplemental tool as you go through your initial type rating.

 

Cheers

I'm going to bump this thread, despite the initial post being made in April and we're now on the home stretch for October.

 

The aircraft, and real feel of the aircraft is the most amazing experience since I started flight simulation over 25 years ago.  Easily a front running for all FSX, or any other flight simulated modeled aircraft.

Very true, Dave. And when the next package arrives, a HUD, failures and shared cockpits are alive. Woohoo!

OVPA is Beta testing all that with Majestic right now.  It's INCREDIBLE!

 

Most our Beta flights are streamed live to two channels, and you can watch them both on our website.  Some of the more detailed, boring testing and verifications are streamed privately for obvious reasons - but regular flights are open to the public.

 

The next scheduled streamed Majestic Dash 8 flight is Saturday (tomorrow) morning at 8:00am Eastern US Time.  You can also join us on our Voice Server if you'd like to talk with us.  All the info is on our website (see signature block below).

 

Warning though.... we still have other members streaming other aircraft shared cockpit flights, like the Maddog.
