FSPilotShop.com is having a Black Friday (weekend) sale. One item is a SkyUnlimited Hawker Hurricane for $8, normally $25. A lesser known WW2 fighter from a (to me) lesser known developer, piqued my interest.
In short: Best $8 I ever spent! ;D
Pluses:
-A bit more docile than a later war higher power fighter like a Mustang or Spitfire. Still can bite you on takeoff or landing.
-Excellent model and VC. Gauges could a bit sharper but still good quality and very flyable. No frame rate hit either. Everything in the cockpit is clickable, though switches like the Morse code key and seat adjusting and such don't actually do anything.
-Engine exhaust and flames, high G contrails, firing guns, and on the ground you can 'remove' the engine covers for maintenance; even puts a dirty drip-pan under the motor!
Minuses:
-2D cockpit is generic looking, but with this VC who cares?
-Scanned real life Hurricane manual is somewhat blurry.
