RAZBAM DCS: AT-27 Testers Needed

[Teeter]

Hey guys,

 

Work on the RAZBAM DCS: AT-27 flight model is getting started, and I would like to work in parallel with a few live at-will (and at your convenience) testers.

 

I would like three testers total, to work in a team as well as independently. I've asked two, and only one has accepted so far (the other is undecided). Please, provide some reasons why you would make a great tester!

 

It doesn't seem like it should be a big deal, but I'm really looking to assemble a small team of real know-it-alls as opposed to a reckless squadron of...whatever you want to call it. The two that I've asked are people who I know to be very intelligent, reliable testers. However, they have no evident specialized experience with the AT-27. I need to fill that space.

 

Some desirable experience:

 

• T-27 Operation or Maintenance Experience*
  
  
• PT6A-25C (or any variant PT6A) Operation or Maintenance Experience*
  
  
• Light Turboprop Aircraft Flight Experience
  
  
• Portuguese-Speaking
  
  

 

And clarification:

 

• The AT-27 EFM is pre-Alpha at this time (work has really just begun)
  
  
• I can't promise you any form of compensation at this time
  
  
• You can test at your convenience, but at least 2-4 hours/wk is best
  
  
• You will need to sign an NDA
  
  

 

If you don't want to reply to this thread, feel free to PM me with interest or question/clarifications/concerns.

Thank you!

I don't have any aircraft experience, but I'm Brazilian, So I speak portuguese. Anyway, I would like to help you guys to make the first Brazilian plane to DCS, if possible.

 

I have a lot free time, I know a friend who trained in the AT- 27 and today he is a A-1M pilot, so he can help me etc.

Eu também sou brasileiro, moro em Natal (tem uma base aérea aqui cheia de Tucanos), e tenho muita experiência com o A-10C (mais de 600 horas logadas). Fiz parte de alguns esquadrões virtuais por mais de 2 anos (1st VFW, depois Virtual Tactical Fighter Group), mas acabei voando tanto o A-10C que dei um tempo. Estou aprendendo agora a voar o BMS F-16 (um novo desafio), mas sem dúvidas, testar um avião brasileiro seria a glória!

 

I´m also brazilian, live in Natal (there is an airbase here, full of Tucanos!), and a lot of experience on A-10C (more than 600 logged hours). I was a member of some virtual squadrons for more than 2 years (1st VFW, then Virtual Tactical Fighter Group), but got tired of flying A-10. Now I´m learning BMS F-16 (a new challenge), but undoubtely, to test a brazilian plane would be wonderful!

Hi Gregory and Razbam team.

 

I am the guy that provide you the contact of my great friend and major of Brazilian Air Force that answered some questions about the Tucano for you. It would be a great pleasure to participate of this test and also I can work with him to bring as many information as I can about the Tucano to build this module close to the real aircraft. You guys can count on me for this one.:thumbup:

I'm brazilian(portuguese speaker), with alot of experience with simulators, about 9 years. I'm Commercial Pilot certificate at brazil (about 310 flight hours), experience with turboprop TBM850, KING AIR, but nothing in T-27. But i'll be really proud if i had a chance to test this airplane.

hi guys, i'm an argentine air force pilot, i flew 100hs on t34 c1 (pt6), 100hs on dhc-6 (pt6) and now i'm flying sf-34 (ge ct7 9b), the only problem is that i have my computer out of service until july! if that's not a problem i have time to help you!

[bkthunder]

I sent you a PM ;)

[flyingscotsman]

I love Tucano, only ever had a rear seat in one - my last flight in the RAF, a present from my boss , don't speak Portugese would love to fly the Tucano = and I wish you all well

[Apache600]

If no other help is available, and you are willing to work through a translator, I'd be willing to help you out. Sorry, I only speak English (and probably not all that correctly either). I do have 500 hours flying a C-208 Caravan though, (PT-6 engine) for a Fedex feeder.

[DelZ LetsPlay]

Hi,

 

I'm a German youtuber who is playing many simulations. I know nothing about this aircraft but it sounds interesting. I'd like to make make some videos about this plane if I'm allowed to test it

[Batts]

I don't speak Portuguese, or have any turboprop experience, but I am a US based PPL holder for single engine land with ~180 hours in cherokees and 172's, with a background in aerospace production. Perfectly willing to help out and give feedback.

Thank you Apache - I'm up for that, but with all you good pilots ...they have a good pool to chose from. We shall keep having to follow the thread to see what happens. Thank for the very kind offer.

Hello, I've sent you a PM, I pill be willing to help if you need. USMC pilot. Flown 100 hours in the T-6, which is pretty much derived from the Tucano, and a lot of hours in tactical jets. Let me know. Thanks

[hotshotmike1001]

Hello! I used to Fly TUCANO, I have about 40hs on this plane and still have mi checklist

AT-27 project was canceled. It's been a year already.

AT-27 project was canceled. It's been a year already.

 

It's a pity ... I would have purchased that Module, since it's an aircraft in use on my country :(

[Vitormouraa]

That's the A-29 (EMB-314) Super Tucano though. Which is being developed by the other team. We were working on the AT-27 Tucano (EMB-312).

 

Even though the AT-27 was canceled, we are getting something better. ;)

[Rudel_chw]

That's the A-29 (EMB-314) Super Tucano though.

 

 

... yes, you are fully right ... hope it doesn't get abandoned mid-way ... It would be very nice to have a turboprop trainer on DCS.
