Check this out:
http://www.combatsim.com/htm/2000/08/trybuy/

They have sliding canopies (haven't seen those before), smoothly retracting undercarriage (woohoo!) and rotating propellers (ha!). Nice 2D cockpit, pity about the missing dimension.

Well based on the quality of that work, MPosis and I are going to offer the Stuka for download at the low, low price of $25. Hurry while stock last!!!

This offer is only available in Never, Never Land, where companies like Abacus can exchange old rope for money Anyone want to buy some worn hessian thread?

if you don't like adult abusive adult language.. don't read further....

What a bunch of complete wankers! Pay my ass! give money out for new aircraft that are designed to be as lame as those that came before, shit me, no really, what a load of crap, I'd complain but I didn't see a link to mail them.. plus I don't use CFS anyhow and can't put up a good argument on those grounds

May I just say to these CFS peeps.... $&%(*#&# &#&& #&*%! @(#&$%! *#&$#(*!!! &#$&*#$#*! And further more... @*$&$@#(*! (#$**% *$#)*%! (#$*#%!

Ok, I think Ive made my point.

P.S. I would much rather pay $25.00 for the Stuka than for CFS B.S.

The Abacus planes are very nice on the exterior... much nicer than the default CFS planes. As 2D cockpits go, the 2D cockpits are also quite nice... but 2D cockpits are, in my opinion, totally irrelevant, so that plus is lost on me. The lack of 3D cockpits is frustrating and the mummified-looking pilot is... well... disturbing. And of course all this is on top of the fact that CFS is probably the worst of the glut of flight sims that came out when it did. Considering how many units CFS sold (thanks to massive distribution and the MS name), I'm beginning to think it was Microsoft, more than anything else, that turned people off to flight sims.

I do, however, like the idea of buying planes individually... At 8 bucks a pop, I think that's cool.

Oh whoopee *!'$ing doo!

I'll pay money for these planes...NOT

Let me see now....Mustang..does theres have any damage modelling...NOPE...what about animated pilots....NOPE....I think we have one and it's free..

Spitfire mkIX.....I don't think we have one yet, but when we do....

Me262....that one came with our game, for which I paid £9.99. Less than the cost of two abacus planes....Bargain!

Oh and lets not forget the Corsair....how many Corsair variants do we have to choose from.....

I just loved the way they sell all the products to make these planes, and still insist on screwing the public again to buy them....

Oh, and they look for specs and even consult people who have experience of the real thing....Hah hah hah....then why did the reviewer at combatsim have issues with half of the flight models?

p.s. the Me262b looked total shite!

I had a go at making one for SDOE which I must finish some time. I got lots of pictures of the only survivng genuine 262b and they have the canopy well wrong...

oh well, rant over....

Back to work on the B24....might sell it to Abacus for £50
