- Introducing the Lotus Simulations L-39C Albatros for Flight Simulator X.
Over 15 months in the making, this L-39 brings to the table a unique set of traits and never before seen features.
Built for the greater demands of multiplayer formation flight and designed from the ground up for Shared Cockpit online training, this aircraft is like no other addon available.
Features:
-Highly accurate systems, such as hydraulics, electrical bus functions, ram air turbine, saphir starter, EGT limiter, pressurization, oxygen, anti-ice, and many more. Some systems can have serious consequences if ignored.
-High performance external model and highly optimized VC for best possible framerates, and with no holes or missing parts, making it extremely Track-ir friendly.
-Both front and rear cockpits modeled in full detail and using entirely 3D gauges for smooth, stutter free flight.
-Totally unique new landing light system that actually properly illuminates the ground, a first for a Flight Simulator aircraft. The landing lights also illuminate raindrops that fall in front of the bulbs.
-Red and white instrument lights that properly illuminate the 3D gauges, ie: needles get realistically brighter as they move towards the gauge light sources.
-All lights built into the model itself, with none of the separation and clipping problems associated with normal effect based lights. Strobe lights also cast light on the ground.
-The return of VC Canopy rain effects! This is another first for a true FSX native aircraft.
-Progressive icing effects that accumulate over time, obscuring vision and showing on the surfaces of the aircraft. Fly into icing conditions and you may find yourself in some trouble.
-Highly accurate flight model, capable of both stable spins and sideslips, with performance based on the real world L-39 operating handbook and on personal flight experience in a real L-39. Flight tested by L-39C owners.
-25 models included, with 14 unique paint schemes. These include single seat VC versions, a Reno racer variant, and a special stripped down and ultra high performance model for those who participate in online formation teams. 5 models also feature VC integration and compatibility for Reality XP GNS430 GPS owners.
-Full 3D spatial sound set provided by Turbine Sound Studios, and including AI traffic sounds for multiplayer flight. Almost all switches, systems, and cockpit functions have associated sounds as well.
The manual for the aircraft is available for viewing prior to purchase. Free extra paint schemes and a paint kit are also provided. All of these are available at the Lotus Simulations website.

Requires: FSX with Service Pack 2, Acceleration, or FSX Gold Edition. The L-39 is DX10 compatible.
Recommended: Track-ir and 512+ mb Nvidia video card for best results.

I have done the canopy roll crossover shown at 2:16 and it looks EXACTLY like this simulation... very hard to get this plane right from what I have seen of other simulations, but this "feels" right to me. Great job!
As someone who creates commercial film & video for a living I can honestly say this is the best FSX video I've ever seen produced - by far.
The timing, composition, music-bed selection and action sequences are brilliantly done. And that you took time to purposely ask for and include the permissions for the song, nobody on TH-cam does that, and that's signs of a class-act. Kudos.
I haven't purchased the L-39 ... yet, but after seeing this video I most likely will.
Best from,

Was one of the best airplanes in the sim, I miss it immensely now. Also... Mike, if you read this.. I am FutureFlyer... we used to fly together and in fact I am in a few of these videos. Hope you are well mate, and it would be great to reconnect.
This video brought back some good memories. I can't believe it's been almost 10 years. This was one of my favorite "indie" projects for FSX. It would be real nice to see this get a p3d v4 upgrade, but it seems the dev has moved on to other things. Thanks for the ride
PLEASE MAKE MORE VIDEOS
Ayo the real Phly?!
This comment is very precious. Only a few have ever seen it lol
My god.
poop
to be honest I had a couple tears rolling down my face, that was just so beautiful, there's really no way to describ the quality of your videos and aircraft, I'm blown away.
It looks fantastic! The fact that you've included features that haven't even be used for FSX aircraft is astonishing!
still one of the coolest fsx video ever made :)
But Vectors is the coolest. Shame we never hear from Rama anymore.
Willem Teeuwen yea.. probably new things cameup in his life. but FSX was and still is one of the best platform to produice videos. One of the best way to learn.
I know. I tried. He even told me his secrets, but I sucked at it.
Amazing job with everything, Mike.
This is the new standard for FSX!
Absolutely amazing Mike. Amazing! Great work on both the aircraft model and the film. Next time you head down to Seattle let me know, I think the world of flight sim owes you a cold one, I am buying you a couple of them.
Great work.
It's funny, when you've actually flown the aircraft, and know all of its systems, you look at this video differently.
Cheers to the best payware arcraft ever made! Thumbs up if you agree!
I just bought this one.
Two words: The best.
Those 15 months making l39 were well spent.
You deserve every euro i paid for it
When i win the lottery, i will buy one real Albatros just for you budy.
Congratulations.
Finally, the birth of two masterpieces! That was a long wait. Can't wait to fly this one. Congratulations! Excellent job, on both the plane and this nice little flick!
This is one of my favorite videos of all time. It's absolutely amazing!
Thanks for making this wonderful aircraft for FSX and us! And I've already purchased a copy of your awesome creation! Great work! Great video! You are the best FSX video creator ever!
watching one of your videos is almost more fun than flying myself... in some ways MORE fun cause I have no idea how to get all those aircraft under my control. Another great one by you! Thanks.
now i just need the names of the entries :)
and i bought your aircraft and i have to say that you are genious!! i love the icing and rain effects!!! i always turn the aircraft off and restart it to feel your realism you brought in there. AWESOME
very nice! your probably 1st person in FlightSim to have icing effects aswell. Top Job
As always your video's are amazing, Great work showcasing the aircraft love the camera work.
I have purchased your L-39. You guys did a very good job! Looking forward for more great products!
This looks to be a must have. This maybe the star of my first true FSX movie.
not a problem. This is the best addon for FSX yet by far! And THANK YOU for bringing back the rain drops!
This Looks way better than anything in FSX standard edition. the lights did it for me. the cockpit lights look amazing
MASTERPIECE, an absolute masterpiece of an aircraft.
I'm not gonna lie, I stole this aircraft to begin with and for that I sincerely apologise.
Realising the quality of this add on and the amount of work that must have gone into it, I did the right thing and bought it. Even though it's a few years old now, it's by far the best aircraft in my hangar, so so fun to fly
the frame hit is unbelievable! I've never seen this many aircraft in FS Recorder with 30 frames! looks just like the L-39's I saw at EAA Air Venture Oshkosh, I'll have to send you some of the pictures
the musics amazing it adds so much more effect and depth
toto video mam rad po dlouhé době se vracím a stále mě to bavi
thank you so much for this piece of art..
your flying is excellent, this plane is in my opinion the best ever developed for fsx and this video is just epic.. can't wait for your next work..
cheers..
Wow, amazing video!!! I've watched this twice already tonight. I'm picking up fsx tomorrow along with a few other goodies :) I'll probably buy this once I get everything set up.
I..... I have no comment but this is simply breath takingly beautiful and amazing.
and again i watch breathless man , your vids are very awesome.
The lights look amazing, will buy this once I install my new graphics card!
great job Rafale ! wow another amazing video! and again great music choice
Soo good to have a plane that is actually made for FSX!!
@FSXdeathplane Agreed. I've been flying this beauty for around 3 months now. Worth every single cent!
man good times, this was the first plane i bought for fsx so fun
i still find this video amazing. you're inspiration to alot of my videos to come.
Yeehaw, now I can play FSX on my laptop as well! The frames are awsome! Well done!
Five stars to you mate!
This video was my motivation in year 2010 when I didi my 1st video, video was about L39C
Without this video, maybe I couldn't be here right now
Mike this is a fantastic video, and what a fantastic aircraft! Many congratulations on all the hard work paying off! I will buy as soon as i get the cash for it! :) 5*
Beautiful. Congratulations on your accomplishment!
The avsim review was great, as is this aircraft! Its my absolute favorite. Well done :-)
Thanks Jigsaw! On the landing lights, no I'm afraid they are far too complex in their construction to be simply added to another aircraft. They depend entirely on the plane itself at the moment. The code alone is fairly insane. They do however come with a free L-39. :)
Another nice one, Ramasurinen. :) Keep up the good work!
I have watched this so many times. Mike, hugs man.. Really..
That Icing effect looked pretty cool.
Damn! I couldn't resist anymore! I just bought it from the fspilotshop! Downloading as I type this! :D
Ramasurinen you have done it again! Wonderful video, i love it! Keep up the good work. I will buy a real plane like this one day and you are invited for the first tour! 5/5!
Congrats for creating the L-39!
I have seen this a few times, and have long since bought it. Everytime I see this film, I just want to jump into the L-39 and go hole punching in the sky. The film is a work of art of a true work of art in the FS community. If this is your first release, I can't wait to see what else you have up your sleeves!
The type is not really my kind of flyer, but I just couldn't resist such amazing work! Thanks for the dedication...
What is the track used by the way? Beautiful accompaniment!
Beautiful plane. I actually sat in one at an airshow.
this just perfectly shows what flying is all about :)
excellent vid
def one of the better FSX ones out there
cheers
Tim
(slightly jealous x-plane 9 simmer)
Nice flying! One of the best add-ons on fsx!
5*
one of the greatest videos of youtube..
FSX only has maps of the area not the airport itself. Just go to airnav, print it out, then keep it as a map in your flight. The trim should work....... but an A320 isn't a default FSX. If you're talking about the A321, then it still should work
I havo no words for it man. Amazing
An outstanding video for an outstanding aircraft (the icing effects blew my mind!)! As soon as I can spare the money I'll buy it. Oh, about the landing lights: they also look fantastic. Can they be applied to other aircraft? If not, you should consider creating an add on that enables one to do so. I'm sure there'd be a high demand for it, because frankly, all other landings lights that I've seen so far are just crap and way too dark. Your's, however, are spot on (no pun intended ;) )
Wow, this is an amazing video to an amazingly well made Addon....Just Great!! 5*
These videos were the best in the business. Wonder if you're still out there Ramasurinen?
This is amazing! i hope more you make more adverts for fsx :D
Please, do more planes!!! I haven't seen such level of detail at any other addon aircraft to FSX
0:44 is really the most epic and cinematic scene I ever saw in fsx. It really shows the freedom of aviation. Well done Michael.
How populated are the multiplayer servers with your L-39 and are there any events ?
Would love to take a look at the forum when i finally bought myself a copy.
That video was literally awesome.
Unfortunately, this did not appear is my subscriptions box. I'm glad to see you're still making videos.
Excellent plane and film like usual, Ramasurinen; great scenes and angles. I'd assume you used some of Sony Vegas's more subtle effects such as color correction, but I am not sure.
This video has a different feeling than most of yours, more calm and peaceful. Of course, the plane is also exceptional. Would it work with FS9?
This looks amazing. Im going to buy it ASAP!
Rob
So when will you start developing for DCS:World ?
Inspiring work. I will be getting this asap.
Just one question - what is the mountainous airstrip featured in the tutorial video?
Amazing aircraft,amazing video, amazing everything!!!!
what is that at 4:17 ? this has become my favorite aircraft in FSX and can't wait for your next project.
Anyone know where this guy went to? I haven't seen him active on his account in awhile.
the best film in FSX i see, in what area of the world do you record this film?
Mate this is all i could have ever hoped for, ill be getting this as soon as i get paid. btw, any plans for ur next aircraft, coz if u don't how bout a nice a nice T-28D trojan :P, coz just like the l-39 its such an underrated plane and deserves justice in FSX
Now if that ain't an offer I can't refuse. ;)
Too bad about the landing lights being inseparable of the aircraft. But I like "at the moment" part. Here's hoping that there might be a solution to that in the future.
@ThEc00lEr Are you using differental breaking? The aircraft in real life has no nose wheel steering so you have to use differential breaking to steer it on the ground.
Vocês está usando o Walk and Fallow ou Ezdok para a visão de fora?
Quantos mega tem a sua placa de video?
Obrigado e excelente video.
Wow incredible, i'm left speechless.
Amazing plane. Amazing Video.
Will you do L-29 Delfin?
It is made By Aero Vodochody like Albatros and Alca.
Im sure you know that :) Iam Proud of Aero Vodochody and their machines.
now we're waiting for a new, non-promotional video ;p
but this was also great.
amazing lotus, probably would say something good here.. but im speechless
Incredible video!, a true hard work
I love the intro. pretty little GA aircraft, then the L-39s come in like "SCREW THAT SHIT!!!!!"
Wonderfull film. I have this bird in my hangar now.
@Ramasurinen I bet you are happy with the results
your plane is considered one of the best payware
and since you made it can you tell me what to do to climb?
it always stalls
@CAPTFSX95,
I'm not sure what exactly you are asking ... but you might want to start with Real Environment Xtreme
Well done Mike, think I will purchase. Did you use REX? And can you tell how many you have sold?
You may be sad about this, but I just set my FSX to run on only cores 3 & 4 of my new computer, I'm guessing you never saw my "New Cappilot12" video, but I just got 60 frames with fraps running in a formation of 6 L-39's smoke on lol. The witchcraft also explains some of your videos that the film school part can't explain ;) Any ideas for whats next on your development list? Eagle Sim is going to start a sales incentive where if you sell x amount of products a month we'll buy you a L-39 lol
outstanding...simply SUPER !
man...i got to have this plane
amazing video , i dont wanna get caught up in this convo about the economy of flight sim add ons too much, but is it really true that flight simulator x is the last?!?!!!! if it is, omfg. i live off flight sims ( fs2004 more than fsx ) and it wud be a massive shame if that was the last. by the way, this is the most amazing flight sim video ive ever seen in my whole life, i recomend you to all my mates, and all theirs and practically everyone i know =) please keep making em, ive subscribed =)
Oh my god! It's beautiful.
I cannot wait to buy it but i've no money lol
Mike, you rock man..

Thankyou so much mate! what about the trim It doesn't seem to work without switching on the autopilot. And you want to say FSX doesn't have any maps prepared?
Very nice! Does it come with a NVA (East German Air Force) livery?
That was awesome. Freakin awesome!!!!!
great plane for a great video. as usual ^^ thanks a lot for everything
@FSboarder my FSX, FS2004 and some others game just crashed on my computer and im not home so i got to reinstall everything back the way it was..but no worries i have a backup file for all my addons.!!
very nice vid. Man how do u make such good movies because i can't. tell me plz
Keep up the good work .
oh yea that logo how did u make it?
thanks
What scenery addon did you use for the Reno shots? Awesome vid!!!
None of the default FSX aircraft can develop a stable spin accurately, their flight dynamics aren't set up for it, and very few addons can either. My L-39 is one of those, something I spent weeks and weeks getting just right during development. I managed to get it to remain in a spin from 24000 feet right to the concrete once, controls untouched the whole way down. Had time to go and get some coffee, which I did. :) Cheers.
