Nice historic aircraft for my collection. Easy to install. Everything worked the first time. Like always, it'll take more than a few minute flight to say you can fly the ME262 with a degree of confidence.

    This add-on is amazing! Very easy to install and run. I've been inside a ME262 and the cockpit doesn't look like that but the gages that are there look like they're in the right place so the virtual cockpit needs some working on. Overall this plane is amazing!

    Not too shabby at all the 2d is impressive, granted the VC is kinda blurry all in all a great, and unique plane.

    Easy installation, no problems, with all models popping up the first time. I flew the two seater night version, and was satisfied before bedtime. Will have to get back in the seat this weekend. A great addition to anyones fleet, and historically accurate. Two of the 262"s have now been restored to flying condition. Watch for them, and if you get a chance to see them, this sim will be more aprreciated for what it is. Well before it's time, and a marvel of the time period. Upon landing I was able to hold the nose gear off 3/4's way down the runway. Not a good pilot, just a good model letting itself be controlled. I liked that.

    It is okay, but I couldn't get any of the panels to work.

    I liked flying this model and thought that it is very well done. Easy to install and run. The cockpit looks a little not finished but maybe that is the way it looked. The guages are a little fuzzy but I liked this one and think that it should cost $10
