The brand “Christen” and the Christen Eagle design is used by kind. We have the greatest pleasure in releasing the IRIS Pro Series Christen Eagle for FSX.

August 2005 saw the release of what is now widely regarded as one of the benchmarks for Flight Simulator Aerobatic aircraft in the form of the Long Island Classics Christen Eagle for FS2004. Now, four years later, and with a gracious nod to both Kevin Lechmanski and Dan Hufford of Long Island Classics, the generous support of aircraft designer Frank Christensen, the Blue Eagles Virtual Aerobatic Team (fsxblueeagles.com) and the development team at IRIS, I have the greatest pleasure in launching the IRIS Pro Series Christen Eagle for FSX.

New in V1.2: • Updated Contact Points for more stable ground handling. • Brand new soundpack based on Christen recordings for a more authentic sounding experience. • Autopilot added to Virtual Cockpit on Christen Eagle I and II models. • New Garmin 1000 fitted Christen Eagle IG model added. • Loads of additional skins added courtesy of Chris Brisland at www.eagleskinner.com Features: • Custom soundpack including new supersonic prop tip effects.

• All new 3D gauges designed from the Christen blueprints. Onenote 2010 Portable. • Two visual models contracted by Frank Christensen and polished by IRIS for full FSX functionality! • A superb flight model for the Eagle I and Eagle II aircraft, allowing users to try out both the kit sports biplane or the competition aerobatic aircraft. • A wide variety of paintschemes and two paintkits aimed at ease of repainting by users. This product does not include a 2D Panel and requires use of the Virtual Cockpit for all flight operations.

I'm writing a second review because after some days the developer answer to me and send me a noshoreline.bgl which didn't solved the problem of 'water cliffs' i reported in the first review. But still maked an effort. Also-, i discovered that the issue was related to taburet mesh or to a conflict between it and fs global mesh europe which i had activated together. Infact disabling taburet solved the problem and improved also the performance. I believe its taburet and p3dv4 because disabling it didn't solve the problem (along with noshoreline. Asuka 120 Burning Fest Final Iso. bgl- ). The scenery is a little better in definitiion than other payware photoreal like megascenery i bought megascenery portugal and it far worst in color error and definition. Still it may be worse in definition than outstanding freeware such like xplane orto or italy photoreal.

So this is a good solution for scenery in general and it is absolutely recomended for those who love greece. I give 5 stars to compensate the first low review, final vote after exstensive testing 4 stars because its a bit expensive but it has autogen (with too few trees).

This product was hyped and not much was shown before release. This should have been the weather and cloud addon for flightsim. When the product was released I was very disappointed though. The weather engine itself is nothing compared to competitors and the program has many bugs. The visuals in the sim were very nice (which is my only positive point about it). SP1 was released short after release but this didn't help my experience with the product. Aft- er many (thousand+) hours flying in a very stable P3D V4 I experience a lot of crashed after the installation of RSF3D, which didn't happen before.

(Still, could be related to something else). This resulted in a complete reinstallation of P3D without this product and I got a stable flightsim in return.

Hesitating if I even should install the product again when SP2 will be released shortly. At this point I rate this program 2 stars. I find it to expensive for what it does especially with all those bugs and bad weather engine.

I am sure the program gets updated throughout the years (Other products of REX have) and I have still faith in REX to turn this product around. Perfect re-edition! Frankly speaking I was in love in EETN v1 - especially due to the beautiful approach to rwy 08. Thanks to autogen enhancements even the approach to rwy 26 looks nice now. Very nice feature is the animated tram, which can be visibile from the apron.
