Three fictional aircraft for exploring X-Plane’s atmosphere, terrain and extreme flight regimes.
The H130 utility helicopter, descended from the AS350 and fitted with a Fenestron.
A long-range trijet developed from the DC-10 with a stretched fuselage and revised wing and cockpit.
A side-by-side military trainer with a low wing and fixed tricycle landing gear.
A medium commercial helicopter designed for passenger and utility transport.
A four-engine tactical transport built around a rear loading ramp and access to austere airfields.
Avro's delta-wing bomber, developed for Britain's postwar strategic force.
An amphibious turboprop designed around scooping water and delivering it to fires.
A late-war single-seat jet fighter with its engine mounted above the fuselage.
A vast inter-war flying boat with twelve engines arranged in six paired installations.
A wooden touring-aircraft family recognisable by the upward-angled outer wing panels.
A four-engine airliner whose history also includes long-range maritime military service.
A compact Czech touring aircraft with side-by-side seats and a streamlined low-wing airframe.
A four-abreast regional-jet family spanning the E170, E175, E190 and E195.
A box-shaped utility twin whose cabin and rear access are central to its design.
A pressurised touring twin whose piston and turbine-conversion versions make a particularly interesting comparison.
The Wilga is the real-aircraft starting point for Mike Patey's DRACO and the simulator's DRACO X.
A powered hang-glider wing above an amphibious inflatable boat.
A light turbine helicopter combining an Alouette II airframe with more powerful Alouette III components.
A streamlined light twin helicopter, with the later Bell 230 in the same family.
A flyable interpretation of Testors’ 1980s speculative stealth-fighter design.
A stretched development of the DC-9 with rear-mounted engines and a five-abreast cabin.
A small twin-engine amphibian that moved from business transport into military and utility service.
An experimental twin-boom racing aircraft commissioned by Bob Pond and designed by Burt Rutan.
