liner simpilot Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Adam, you have to love the old classics especially the DC-8 series. The pics are excellent good angles & clouds. Is that a real freighter as I have never heard of that one. Kenny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc8flightseck Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I loved the ATI DC-8 and am sad they are gone. They were beautifully painted. Here is a pic of an ATI DC-8 that I once got a tour of. Your virtual DC-8 looks lovely. Thanks for the photos!!

wolf2 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 never saw a dc-8with such modern engines. I've read some of them are still used for cargo; judging from the engines, and lack of windows (just call me Sherlock, lol) that must be one. keeping the cg inside the envelope must be tricky on a bird that long. can u load it up different ways and feel a difference? love the paint on it, and nice shots!

mikeandpatty Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 The DC8-71, -72 and -73 are re-engine conversions of the -61, -62 and -63 respectively. They collectively were referred to as the "stretch 8s", much longer than the original -10 through -50 versions. All of the DC8 series are available from HJG as freeware; panels are also available, but they have no VC. I have both the "Baby 8" and "Stretch 8" packages from JustFlight, and in spite of several cockpit gauge bugs that are gradually being fixed with updates by JF, I like them. The VC is very nice and all the versions handle very well (my personal opinion). Like PMDG payware, the JF models are not for the faint of heart; they are systems intensive so you cannot expect to just hop in and fly them. They have a very basic autopilot with no 2D flyout panel to make it easy to use (I added one), which is one of the continuing complaints in the JF Forum.
