BlackBox Simulation releases Cessna L-19 ‘Bird Dog’
Just a few days after teasing us with an upcoming release, BlackBox Simulations has released today their rendition of the ‘Bird Dog’.
The ‘Bird Dog’ for MSFS includes a entirely analog panel with instrument lights, flood lights in white or red, a separate compass light and a full set of exterior lights! There is also an amphibian model for some fun in the water and a bush variant with tundra tyres! When it comes to liveries, there’s a healthy selection of 10 choices, both civil and military.
It’s available right now directly from BlackBox for €24.99.

This is a crap quality. Nothing compared to the already existing models. This is more of a MSFS2000 addon. Wow there needs to be some kind of quality control or not we are going to get flooded with crap

The quality of this thing is total garbage. No accuracy to the real plane at all, super simplified arcade flight model, freeware-quality 3D model and interior textures that belong in the 1990’s. Let me make this clear: This airplane is a scam. Please do not support these unscrupulous third parties, they are overwhelming the marketplaces with junk!

It’s a shame this isn’t a better model. I really want a good seaplane for alska / canada bush trips, but after seeing NOTAM’s youtube video it just reaks of scam.

It was rocky at first but is first rate now I think (or pretty close). Lots of responsive updates from the developer since release.

I bought this thru MSFS 2020 catalog, but no idea how to load it.

STOP! DO NOT SPEND 40 BUCKS! This is a terrible model. Terrible. Until MSFS2020 gets the water waves modeled, ALL float planes should not be purchased (like this 1st one L19). WAIT, have patience so those of us waiting… for float planes will enjoy it. Let the kids create flying donuts and engines – and DO NOT go to web sites who are offering such crap (a flying tampon? – geez).

i bought this plane when it first came out as it was the only one with floats or water capability besides the Icon,
it has been updated at least a few times since then and is a decent aircraft
