FSX Flying boat Hughes H4 "Spruce Goose". In fact, this was a flying ship with a wingspan of almost 98 m; until now the biggest wingspan ever built. The maximum weigth was designed for 181.5 tons. The famous flight pioneer Howard Hughes proposed that giant to be used as WWII troop transporter for 750 soldiers and a crew of 18 men; save vom U-boat attacks. The complete aircraft was made of birch and spruce wood. The construction was finished too late and so this huge airplane made only one testflight in low level. The FS-model is now reworked for FSX and provides FSX-compatible gauges, props and airfiles and shows internal and external camera views. A saved flight, starting near the Queen Mary and the Spruce Goose museum at Long Beach is included. The original FS2004 model is made by Dennis Simanaitis. Also the powerful sounds are from him and comes from his Tupolev Ant-20 Maxim Gorky, a Russian vintage airplane, powered also with eight engines. Reworked for FSX by Erwin Welker.

FSX Couzinet 70 Arc en Ciel (Mermoz) Version B V to fix the small bug occurred with older gauges., complete package reworked for FSX compatibility. This a my FS2004 Arc en Ciel package, slightly reworked for a complete FSX compatibility. The airplane has moving parts, antennas, landing lights, interior details, opening door ... Includes the custom panel (an original bitmap by me) inspired by the only photo of the real one. The Arc en Ciel (= Rainbow in French), piloted by Mermoz, entered the legend by its direct postal flight across the South Atlantic on jan 16th 1933. And then by many other flights between Europe, Africa and South America. Mermoz used to say that the Arc en Ciel was definitely his favorite plane, with its so particular design and its exceptional performance for this time.Designed by Pat Grange. 7.5MB

This is an update for the panel of my recently posted Vickers Valiant (FSX_Vickers_Valiant-1.zip below). I re-modelled the VC and added more gauges. Be sure to replace my old panel with this one, because it looks a lot more realistic and much more enhanced. VC configuration by Michael Pook.

The package features an updated VC and 2D panel, both with working FSX compatible gauges for both the VC and the 2D panel. Original FS2002/ 2004 model by Alphasim, updated for FSX and new VC by Michael Pook.
