A first look at Alderney and the Kitfox Speedster in Microsoft Flight Simulator

Combining two add-ons in one video - firstly, the Kitfox Speedster that is available from the Marketplace, and secondly the scenery of Alderney in the channel islands. Enjoy!

I have re-visited Alderney with the Inibuilds version of this same scenery, which has received a HUGE upgrade. The developers are looking into why the marketplace version is not the latest. See the new version here - th-cam.com/video/NI2NG3Sa1QQ/w-d-xo.html

Amazing what can be achieved in this simulator, being of the older gen i remember the 1st one ! all those years ago, I really enjoyed this video thanks

[@jonbeckett]

Couldn't agree more!

Great video! In your version of the scenery the airport has stock buildings. Maybe you have an old version or something is missing. They are all handmade now and airport assets standing around. The tower is modeled on the inside, too. Looks really nice.

[@jonbeckett]

I wonder if it's because I got it from the marketplace, rather than from the developer this time ?

[@mikecoffee100]

Ohhhhhh looks nice both and of course another spot on video

[@jonbeckett]

Seems to be there are two versions of the same scenery from the same developer though. Odd.

Great video! Thank you so much.

[@jonbeckett]

Glad it was helpful!

Until now I have seen only one Kitfox Speedster in real life. The one with the green/black livery. Don't know if there is a market in real life... this one have shorther wings for acro. for the rest is a typical Kitfox 7 . The Sti, like that of Got Friend's Palmer has different undercarriage, nose and mostly wider wings. For Alderney there is not only the wonderful payware version, but also a good freeware.

Good review and some really great scenery. On your next flight in this area, could we see default compared to your next add on? What does MS show for this island.
You sure keep busy making videos. Great stuff. Thanks you.

[@jonbeckett]

That's a good idea - it didn't occur to me to show the stock scenery versus the 3rd party scenery.

Sorry - what does "Lane A" and "Lane B" mean? Are they magnetos?
I love the remains of the foundation of the old fort on the West end of the island. Cool.

[@jonbeckett]

I'm guessing they must be :)

[@volkerjansen3901]

Beautiful video! Too bad this Kitfox has a similar stall behavior as the //42 FreedomFox. Trent Palmer demonstrated in a video that his Kitfox's tail stalls before the main wing, making stalls a non-event.

[@jonbeckett]

I didn't know that - good information

[@jress9967]

Great video, where can I find the manual?

[@jonbeckett]

It's inside the aircraft installation directory.

[@JohnFrancis66]

Is there a graphics setting that might mitigate the pop in of the cliffs? Wondering out loud.

[@jonbeckett]

I don't think so. All the mountains in the game do it when you're close to them.

[@Exaso]

Does anybody know why my kitfox speedster 7 keeps climbing up or down, I cant stabilize the plane (im on xbox)

[@LowescC]

beautiful flight...( heading to EGJA with the DC-3....glad the Germans left )

[@jonbeckett]

Have fun!

[@antonioiozzi9171]

What a shame that you use default airports in your rewiew. There are pkenty of freeware for UK.

[@jonbeckett]

I have recorded a second video - it turns out there is HUGE update for it.
