Rob Richardson's Beagle Pup 150 for Microsoft Flight Simulator X

This is the first light GA aircraft I flew in (as a front seat passenger) back in the early 70s, The pilot gave me the controls for a short time and since that day I was hooked to flying. The model is awesome and very flyable. I took her for a spin around its home base in Shoreham (that's where the factory was). Here are some tech detail of this under-publicised lady, that I found on the web.

An aerobatic lightplane, the Pup was built by Beagle Aircraft in England. The Pup was sold in three models: the Pup-100, -150, and -180. The Pup-100 model carries two seats and two optional children’s seats. It's powered by a 100 hp Rolls-Royce/Continental four cylinder engine. Production of the Pup-100 began in February 1968. The Pup-150 is quite similar to the Pup-100. The fuselage is only three inches longer while wingspan dimensions of the low-wing tricycle gear airplane remain the same. A 150 hp Lycoming engine allows optional seating for four. The Pup-150 also offered a larger 34-Imperial-gallon fuel tank as opposed to the standard 24-Imperial-gallon tank installed as standard equipment in the 100 and 150 models. A large rudder on the 150 allows full aerobatics including unlimited spinning. The Pup-180 is also very similar to the Pup-100 but has a full four seats and is fitted with a 180-hp four-cylinder Lycoming engine. Many of the Pup-180s produced were exported.

Going around after a missed approach

Looks like the Piper Cherokee. I bet the 180 will get the job done carrying 4 passengers! Very nice!

Hello Kalizzi,

After seeing the nice screen shots you posted, I was trying to find the Beagle Pup to download, but it does not appear on Rob's site now.

I emailed Rob and asked about the Beagle Pup for download. Looks very nice and I hope it is still available for download.

Best regards,

As a former beagle owner, this is what I first thought:

Sorry, couldn't resist hahaha...

Hi Melo, I downloaded it in January, there were two zips, one for FSX and the other for P3D, both are less than 100MB. Now I looked they are no longer available anywhere for download. I hope Rob sorts you out, if not I may try to share my copy with you through 4shared maybe? I don't know if that is legal though?

Best wishes.
