X-Plane 11.50+ MiG 17F /PF /PFU Fresco 1.5. This update to the MiG 17F by Philippe Gastebois (MIG-17F.ZIP) (thanks for the permission) includes a basic 3D cockpit, working guns and new liveries. The MiG 17F was introduced in 1952 as an advanced version of the MiG 17. With its introduction of an early afterburner, performance was much improved, though still subsonic. Flying tips: generally fly with up trim applied, a gauge has been added to the panel for you to set it just right. Also the aircraft is a little wallowy, so be gentle in the roll. Overall though, it's a great, fun aircraft to fly. V1.5 has a much improved flight model where you no longer have to have almost full up trim to fly level, also better panel with VOR.
