Boeing 767-400ER

This is the Boeing 767-400ER by 'Michael_Chang'.

The 767-400ER, the first Boeing wide-body jet resulting from two fuselage stretches, entered service with Continental Airlines in 2000. The type features a 21.1-foot (6.43-metre) stretch over the 767-300, for a total length of 201.25 feet (61.3 m). The wingspan is also increased by 14.3 feet (4.36 m) through the addition of raked wingtips. Other differences include an updated cockpit, redesigned landing gear, and 777-style Signature Interior. Power is provided by uprated Pratt & Whitney PW4000 or General Electric CF6 engines.

This aircraft is very nice. It comes with 3 liveries, all of which are Delta. This aircrafts wings also flex, which is a nice touch. The 2d cockpit looks very nice too.



Airbus C-212-100 Aviocar

This is the Airbus C-212-100 Aviocar by 'afnavarro'.

The CASA C-212 Aviocar is a turboprop-powered STOL medium transport aircraft designed and built in Spain for civil and military use. C-212s are also produced under licence in Indonesia by Indonesian Aerospace, formerly called IPTN but now known as IAe. The design was initially marketed under the name of Aviocar, but EADS-CASA no longer uses that name in referring to the C-212.

This aircraft cockpit is not the prettiest of things, but it gets the job done. This aircraft only comes with one livery.







Flybe livery for FlyJSim Dash 8-Q400

This is the new Flybe livery for the FlyJSim Dash 8. Read my review on the Dash 8 here.

This livery is very nice and detailed, as well as accurate.

Twin Otter seaplane

This is the Twin Otter seaplane by 'skycycle'.

The de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter is a Canadian 19-passenger STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) utility aircraft developed by de Havilland Canada and currently produced by Viking Air. The aircraft's fixed tricycle undercarriage, STOL abilities and high rate of climb have made it a successful cargo, regional passenger airliner and MEDEVAC aircraft.

This aircraft only has a 2d cockpit, and is tricky to land in rough seas. You can also land this aircraft on land.









Boeing 767-300F

This is the Boeing 767-300F by 'Michael_Chang'.

The 767-300F, the production freighter version of the 767-300ER, entered service with UPS Airlines in 1995. The 767-300F can hold up to 24 standard 88-by-125-inch (2,200 by 3,200 mm) pallets on its main deck and up to 30 LD2 unit load devices on the lower deck, with a total cargo volume of 15,469 cubic feet (438 m3). The freighter has a main deck cargo door and crew exit, while the lower deck features two port-side cargo doors and one starboard cargo door. A general market version with onboard freight-handling systems, refrigeration capability, and crew facilities was delivered to Asiana Airlines on August 23, 1996.[56] As of October 2013, 767-300F deliveries stand at 86 with 44 unfilled orders. Airlines operated 90 examples of the freighter variant and freighter conversions in July 2013.

This aircraft is very nice, as the engine fan rotates and the wings flex. Sadly, it only comes with a 2d cockpit.






Beechcraft Baron 58

This is the Beechcraft Baron 58 by 'awall86'.

Introduced for the model year 1969,[13] the larger, more powerful Baron 58 was developed from the Baron 55, introducing club seating, double aft baggage doors, and new gross weight of 5,400lbs. Depending on the variant, the Baron 58 is fitted with either the Continental IO-520 or IO-550 300-hp engine. The Baron 58 can cruise at 200 knots (370 km/h) at 7000 ft (2100 m). The lengthening of the fuselage increased rear baggage space, as well as providing more comfortable six-place seating over the Baron 55 and 56TC.

This aircraft has many liveries and a 2d and 3d cockpit. It is very fun to fly.






Airbus A320-233

This is the Airbus A320-233 by 'Paul Glanville'.

(A320 by 'riviere' here)

The A320 series has two variants, the A320-100 and A320-200. Only 21 A320-100s were produced; these aircraft, the first to be manufactured, were only delivered to Air Inter (later acquired by Air France) and British Airways (as a result of an order from British Caledonian Airways made prior to its acquisition by British Airways). Compared to the A320-100, the primary changes on A320-200 are wingtip fences and increased fuel capacity for increased range. Indian Airlines used its first 31 A320-200s with double-bogie main landing gear for airfields with poor runway condition which a single-bogie main gear could not manage. Typical range with 150 passengers for the A320-200 is about 3,300 nmi (6,150 km). It is powered by two CFMI CFM56-5s or IAE V2500s with thrust ratings between 113 to 120 kN (25,400 to 27,000 lbf). The lowest speed an A320 can fly is approximately 207 km/h.

This aircraft is fun to fly, and comes with many liveries. It has a 2d and a 3d cockpit, with the passenger cabin also being rendered.

Below is the list of liveries:

Boeing 777-200

This is the Boeing 777.

The Boeing 777 is a family of long-range wide-body twin-engine jet airliners developed and manufactured by Boeing Commercial Airplanes. It is the world's largest twinjet and has a typical seating capacity for 314 to 451 passengers, with a range of 5,235 to 9,380 nautical miles (9,695 to 17,372 km). Commonly referred to as the "Triple Seven", its distinguishing features include the largest-diameter turbofan engines of any aircraft, six wheels on each main landing gear, a circular fuselage cross-section, and a blade-shaped tail cone. Developed in consultation with eight major airlines, the 777 was designed to replace older wide-body airliners and bridge the capacity difference between Boeing's 767 and 747. As Boeing's first fly-by-wire airliner, it has computer-mediated controls; it is also the first entirely computer-designed commercial aircraft.

This aircraft is very nice. It only comes with a 2d cockpit, but when you switch off the engines and open all the doors, you can hold down SHIFT+F3.

There is a glitch with this add-on though. When flying, if you switch off the left engine, 2 airport stairways appear floating in midair (See bottom screenshot)!

This add-on comes with a manual.
