Warbirds of WWII is just what the doctor ordered. With the exception of the Corsair, whose engine sounds like a Cessena 182, the rest of the downloads are just what you expected. The cockpits are fantastic, with plenty of room to mouse around and throw switches, knobs, and radio channels. The P-47, and the Mosquito sound fantastic, and are exacatly what you would expect to hear from a recip. The P-38 is in another category all to itself. The turbochargers whistle right up, and the controls are fantastic. Some of the normal key selections are not the same as what is printed in the manual, but so what. Play around and find them. The Shift + E still opens the canopies, with the exception again of the Corsair. It is a birdcage canopy, and the pilot moves forward as if it were opening, but it does not. Again so what, things I can live with. A litle pricey for 29.95, but well worth it. I ordered on the 10 th of Dec, and recieved it yesterday on the 15th, with the weekend in the middle. Not bad for the holidays. *NOTE* Sorry for you Mac users with attitude, you are just going to miss some of the best add ons around. I downloaded to one tower pc with XP and MS/FS 2004 and another tower pc with Vista and MS/FS X, works great, and downloaded fast. I want some more planes please! Four stars out of five.

I like this simulator very much. It is ad add-on for FSX or FS2004. You get 5 warbirds each with 2 liveries. Each plane has virtually every button or control that you can operate. The British Spitfire and Mosquito have doors that you can operate by the spoiler key. Each plane has opening/closing canopies. The Corsair has raising/lowering tail hook. The game comes with a manual that is very informative. The Mosquito has bomb doors that you can open and switches to prime the bombs and release them. All the planes have simulated guns that fire when pressing the i key. P. Corti.
