Schweizer 300 ↗Research-based aircraft background

Schweizer 300

Schweizer separates the two-seat S300CBi trainer from the three-seat S300C. The manufacturer positions the CBi for training and the C for higher-payload utility work.

Scottish Aviation Bulldog

The Bulldog is a piston-powered trainer with side-by-side seating, fixed tricycle landing gear and control sticks. DH Support identifies the Model 101 supplied to Sweden and the Model 121 supplied to the RAF as the T Mk 1. The Swedish SK 61 and British trainer therefore share an aircraft family while retaining their military model identities.

Scottish Aviation Twin Pioneer

The Twin Pioneer followed Scottish Aviation’s single-engine Pioneer as a short takeoff and landing transport. Initially conceived for 16 passengers, it also entered RAF service carrying troops and supplies to small operating areas.

SeaMax support and water-handling limits

JRollon reports working with the real aircraft’s designer on the simulator model. This is an older product: his page says X-Plane 11 operation requires an updated file from the support forum and notes limitations in its water handling.
