Sampa Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 so, taking a decent interest in trying to learn to fly more vintage aircraft. is the Aeroplane Heaven DC-3, free on ORBX, worth it? 1+1=cow :p "WE jumped out a WINdow!" -Baymax (from Big Hero 6) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgf Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 AH aircraft have varied in the past, but generally were good. I don't know if their FSX/P3D versions are new or modified from the FS2004 planes, but at the price they're worth it. Another option is the Manfred Jahn C47/DC3, also free. Get both and see which you like best, lol. https://a2asimulations.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=62212 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike80 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 As far as I know it is the only true production version of the DC-3 other than the old FS9 / FSX MS default model It is far superior to those. Unfortunately the Jahn version is a modified cargo / C-47 with the cargo door. I have the AH P3D4 version and like it very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgf Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 The MAAM DC3 is very nice, comes with passenger, cargo, civil, and military variants, even the rare floatplane version (only a handful were produced). I don't know if they ever made an FSX/P3D version though, or if the FS2004 can be converted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being an old chopper guy I usually fly low and slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wobbie Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Yes, Orbyx has both the Aeroplane Heaven C-47 & the DC-3, both formally payware, now free. Some great stuff here, including the A2A B-17 Freeware - Orbx (orbxdirect.com) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newsflyer Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 The AH DC3 package is very well done. But, beware, it is demanding on your system. You will need a minimum of 8gigs on your video card. More is better. With my puny 6gig 1660ti, it is sadly unusable for me. Sherm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
