Hi Ludo -

I am fast becoming a fan of CLS and this is a "long overdue" addition to their wonderful fleet.

CLS can be assured that it willbe in my hangar as soon as I am able to get it ! thumbsup.gif

Hi Guys -

After reading Ludo's great Review of this plane and seeing some of the screenshots of it I went out and bought it.

Yesterday though, I recieved an email from CLS regarding the "Installer" for the 747. Evidently there is a bug in it, which is currently being remedied, and those of us who bough the plane have been advised NOT to use the Installer.

Hopefully CLS will be able to resolve the issue quickly as this is one fantastic looking aircraft thumbsup.gif

Ludo -

This may explain why you haven't been offered the plane to test ?

Maybe, but usually Albert Bouwman offers me the product on the day of release. I'll wait and see, and I might end up purchasing it myself watching.gif .

Hi Ludo -

Thats a bit strange then, especially if he has been consistent with sending you things for review ??

On another note though, CLS has just released Service Pack 1 for the 747-200/300, so hopefully that will fix the installer issues they had with the plane if purchsed prior to the 16th of June.

Yeah I did received a message from CLS yesterday stating that they released SP1 for the 747-200. I'm glad they released it quick for those that had already purchased it yes.gif . Happy Flying.
