FSX Polikarpov Po-2 (U-2) Package. During the 'Great Patriotic War' (World War II), PO-2’s were used for close air support, bombing and night harassment raids.

FSX Fairchild Model 91 Package. Built in 1934/35 to meet a requirement for Pan Am for an amphibian flying boat suitable for operations in South America Amazon and Chinese Yangtse regions and up to 8 passengers could be carried in the hull. Some sources say 6 were built (2 going to Pan Am and 2 to private buyers and 2 to Japan) while others say 8 were built but I am pretty sure that actually 7 or 9, including the prototype, were built with a pair serving for Pan Am, a pair for Brazil, two for Japan and two sold to private buyers, of which one was later used by the RAF in Egypt. The confusion could lie in the fact that the Brazillian pair and the Pan Am pair were the same (ie: Pan Am serving out of Brazil). The original prototype served with the Spanish Nationalists after they captured it off the Republicans during the Civil war years and the RAF also used one in Egypt as an Air and Sea Rescue type.Model, VC Panel, Panel, flight dynamics By Chris Herring.

FS2004/FSX Lavochkin La-11. The La-11 was developed from a long line of Lavochkin aircraft and first flew in 1944. It was an excellent front line fighter aircraft during the latter stages of WW2. Powered by a 1,850hp ASh-82FN radial engine it had a top speed of 420 mph at altitude. The La-11 was supplied in some numbers to both the Chinese and the North Korean air forces, and saw operational use during the Korean conflict. It was finally phased out of first line VVS service in the early 'fifties. The La-11 became the last generation of Soviet piston fighters — the jet age had begun. Complete plane by A.F. Scrub. 6.7MB
FS2004/FSX Gloster Grebe biplane fighter. The Gloster Grebe was a single seat biplane fighter with fabric-covered wooden structure and twin Vickers machine gun armament. It was powered by the 400 hp Armstrong Siddeley Jaguar. Top speed was 162 mph (261 km/h).
