Find aircraft background, systems descriptions and manuals for the aircraft you are researching. Each note keeps its source and version context close by.
Simulator manuals describe the developer’s implementation. Aircraft background is research-based; pilot accounts describe an individual’s experience. Coverage here is limited to the selected notes and linked resources, not the full contents of every manual.
OH-6A / H500C · Taog's Hangar · MSFS 2024
Light controls and working configurations
The OH-6A and H500C are separately selectable aircraft in Taog's package, with different skid and float choices. The manual describes electric actuators for cyclic trim and controls without hydraulic boost. Mission attachments add their documented weights at specified loading stations.

SR-71 control-system reference
The linked SR-71 flight manual describes irreversible hydraulic controls with artificial feel. Pitch and roll trim actuators sit downstream of the feel springs and do not displace the stick. This paragraph describes the reference aircraft's mechanism; KwikFlight documents its own simulated controls separately.

KwikFlight Bone · KwikFlight · MSFS 2020 · MSFS 2024
Wing sweep and aircraft systems
The product description links wing sweep to aerodynamic handling and efficiency. Its simulated hydraulic and bleed-air systems affect cabin pressure and aircraft performance, while generators, an APU and constant-speed drive form the described electrical model.
Product description and feature list
KwikFlight Bone
KwikFlight's Bone represents a four-jet, variable-sweep bomber with retractable landing gear and high-lift devices. The developer describes wing sweep changing the aircraft's aerodynamic response, with the sweep schedule handled inside the add-on.
Its cockpit includes six multifunction displays and a flight-planning CDU. Hydraulic, bleed-air and electrical systems accompany an autopilot with heading, navigation, altitude and approach modes.

Lancair Legacy / StarHawk · Flysimware · MSFS 2024
Condition, failures and maintenance
The product’s TrueSim features cover engine, fuel, failure and maintenance behavior. Its EFB includes condition management, servicing and fuel pages, with adjustable realism options. The manual separately indexes glass and analog cockpit equipment, including maintenance pages and the hydraulic dump control.

Learjet 35A — native MSFS 2024 · Flysimware · MSFS 2024
Native systems and aircraft condition
Flysimware describes a rebuild using MSFS 2024 electrical, hydraulic and fuel systems, plus custom pneumatics and 179 functional circuit breakers. Its Free Flight failure options are separate from Career-mode condition tracking. The tablet exposes aircraft configuration, performance tools and live fuel/pneumatic pages.

FlyingIron P-38L Lightning · FlyingIron · MSFS 2020 · MSFS 2024
Two different flap systems
The manual lists Fowler-flap settings of 8, 20 and 40 degrees. Separate 35-degree dive-recovery flaps have a different purpose from speedbrakes. Hydraulically boosted ailerons accompany pitch and rudder trim. Its IAS table lists 130 knots for full flap and 152 knots for gear.

Lockheed P-38L Lightning
The P-38 developed as a twin-engine interceptor and later served escort, reconnaissance and attack roles. The L was the final production version, with deliveries beginning in June 1944.
FlyingIron's P-38L has hydraulically boosted ailerons, pitch and rudder trim, Fowler flaps and separate dive-recovery flaps. Its release history includes later work on compressibility and control response.

The documented simulation
IndiaFoxtEcho marks RAT/emergency hydraulic and emergency-flap functions as absent in the simulation. The documentation distinguishes a pedal shaker from a stick shaker and gives 200 KIAS gear/flap limits separately from the 217-knot slat inhibition threshold.

MD-11 Version 3 Passenger and Freighter · Sky Simulations · MSFS 2020
Documented product features
Sky Simulations lists GE and PW passenger and freighter models in its Version 3 MD-11 package for MSFS 2020. The listing describes autoflight and three hydraulic systems whose behaviour depends on pressure. This does not describe Rotate's X-Plane MD-11 implementation.
