FS2004 Boeing XB-15 Experimental Long-Range Bomber. Attempt by Boeing to a develop 4-engine bomber with 5000-mile range. Begun in 1934, but first flew in 1937, almost two years after the B-17. Many similar features to early B-17, but much larger with 149-foot span. Intended Allison liquid-cooled engines were unavailable, and P&W Twin Wasps were used instead, leaving XB-15 underpowered, unable to go 200 mph. FSDS3.5 model with two liveries: original metal finish, and experimental two-tone camouflage. Interior doors open. Also can be flown in FSX. By George Diemer.
