Three fictional aircraft for exploring X-Plane’s atmosphere, terrain and extreme flight regimes.
The retractable member of Beechcraft’s Musketeer family: a roomy, four-cylinder travelling aircraft with an unusually large baggage door.
A regional jet family with four small engines, a high wing and a large split tail airbrake.
A pressurised cabin-class piston twin, from the tip-tanked 414 to the longer-wing 414A and its many aftermarket conversions.
A single-seat helicopter originally developed as a homebuilt kit.
A corrugated-metal, three-engine transport from the formative years of airline travel.
A post-war Czech light twin with a rounded cabin and engines carried on a low wing.
Japan’s postwar regional turboprop, with Rolls-Royce Dart power and a career spanning passenger, freight and specialist government flying.
A three-engine airliner that became a mainstay of Soviet and Russian passenger transport.
A shorter wide-body Airbus from the transition to two-pilot, electronic-instrument cockpits.
A specialised reconnaissance aircraft designed for very high altitude and sustained supersonic flight.
A light turbine helicopter whose land-based Scout and naval Wasp branches served different jobs.
A five-seat composite single whose development led to the diesel DA50 RG.
A compact Japanese twin turboprop with a high wing and pressurised cabin.
A four-bladed utility helicopter developed from the LongRanger lineage.
A late member of the Nieuport V-strut scout family, remembered both as a First World War fighter and as an advanced trainer.
A two-seat training single with a high wing and fixed tricycle landing gear.
A modern two-seat piston helicopter designed around the training role.
A compact Australian wartime fighter built around a radial engine.
A long-range twin whose programme emphasised composite construction and more electrically powered systems.
A 1920s transport family that developed from a single-engine airliner into a trimotor.
A single-seat aerobatic monoplane that also became a familiar air-racing aircraft.
A light two-seat helicopter with a side-by-side cabin and a semi-rigid main rotor.
A twin-radial airliner that helped make practical passenger transport a regular business.
