Today we’re taking Ant’s Airplanes brand new CAC Winjeel up for an aerobatic display over Westport Airport. I’ve been a fan of Ant’s work for a long time, so I was really looking forward to the release of the Winjeel.
The Winjeel was an Australian trainer aircraft that was used from primary to advanced training and also far target marking. It saw service from 1955 - 1975 as trainer and retired from target marking in 1994. Even though only 64 Winjeels were build there are still quite a few in flying condition.
If you’re familiar with Ant’s Tiger Moth or his FSX releases, you know what to expect with his releases. The modeling is absolutely fantastic down to the last detail, the flight model feels realistic and there are a ton of features. The Winjeel is certainly no exception. It is one of few aircraft in the sim that can perform snap rolls and spins.
When I say it can do snap rolls…it certainly can, but sadly I’m apparently very rusty doing them. As you can see, I attempted 4 in this video and failed 3 ¾ of them. That is not an issue with the flight model but an issue with the knob behind the stick.
Overall, I really like the Winjeel (I already liked it in FSX) and so far, only found one small issues with it. You can select to blend in some of the external sounds in the cockpit view via the tablet. Sadly, I wasn’t able to turn them back down afterwards. Not really an issue, but I would also love the external sounds to be louder, the Winjeel is powered by an R-985 after all.
For this flight I selected the beautiful Westport Airport, that came with World Update XII. NZA Simulations, the developers behind the fantastic Mount Cook and Milford Sound sceneries have released a free upgrade for Westport, adding a ton of detail and making it feel more alive.
