2023-02-27 · release and package scope
The An-225 was developed from Antonov's heavy-airlift work to support the Soviet space programme, including transport of the Buran orbiter. Six engines, a vast wing and a twin-fin tail distinguish it from the related An-124. Its name, Mriya, means dream in Ukrainian.
The only completed aircraft later became associated with outsized commercial cargo. The simulation includes a specialised flight deck and loading interface, with electronic flight bag and ground-service features described in the developer manual.

The German-built Aquila AT-01 is a two-seat aircraft with a carbon- and glass-fibre structure. A210 and A211G versions use a 100 hp Rotax 912S and an MTV21 constant-speed propeller. Picus X's X-Plane package pairs the A210's analog panel with the A211G's Garmin G500 installation and offers changeable wheel fairings.

The developer describes custom hover, transition and cruise behaviour for its hybrid VTOL concept. Functional avionics accompany those flight phases.
Product description, configuration and simulator editions
Hangar Studios 713's ATEA is an interpretation of a hybrid vertical-takeoff concept. Its custom flight behaviour covers hovering, transition and wing-borne cruise, with functional avionics in the simulator cockpit.
The product is described as a concept interpretation. Its simulated flight characteristics belong to that design, without an established production-aircraft handling history.
Ascendance ATEA concept
The Lancaster grew from Avro’s twin-engined Manchester into a four-engined heavy bomber. Roy Chadwick’s team retained the broad design idea while addressing the Manchester’s difficulties, and the prototype flew in January 1941. The RAF Museum describes it as Bomber Command’s principal heavy bomber during the last three years of the war. Its long unobstructed bomb bay became an important part of its adaptability.
