Aeroplane Heaven are known for being more at the budget end of things, but even so aspects of the community Lanc in DCS seem to compare favourably  I know MSFS is a very different beast, but might be useful to see how the AH devs have tackled things, for thems wot know about these things. 

Outstanding find.  I wondered how fast this would pop up on here.  Plan on picking her up and getting acclimated while the Lancaster team continues getting her ready for DCS.  Appreciate this post.

Would be interested in hearing how you get on with her.

The most immediately interesting thing for me is that Echo 19 did the sounds, so it may be possible to reach out to them. I assume using sounds they recorded/developed for their Spitfire/Mustang Merlin engines, but it does sound good! I really think the Lanc is going to be transformative for DCS, opening an entirely new world for us. Too excited!

AH has interesting choices but quality control is almost non-existent, bugs and problems are unfortunately typical in their case.

Outstanding to know since they NEVER place anything on sale, NOT ONCE have I seen this, AND they are probably the highest priced aircraft out there for that sim.  I have almost pulled the trigger several times, but held off.

Flying Iron has crushed the WW2 scene in MSFS. HIGHLY recommend all their products.  They are working a B-17 now for MSFS 2024 and then the team said they were redirecting all their focus to wrapping up the A-7.  Really impressed with them.
