Just Flight - DC Designs Concorde MSFS

DC Designs' VR-ready Concorde for Microsoft Flight Simulator comes in four liveries and features a 3D flight deck with virtually every switch, dial, knob and gauge from the real Concorde, fully functional Flight Management Computer, high-detail instrumentation, weather radar and an operational fuel transfer and Centre of Gravity balance system.

Concorde has been coded with Microsoft Flight Simulator native 'Model Behaviors' animations and built to MSFS operational specifications to prevent issues with future simulator upgrades.

Cockpit:

• Truly 3D flight deck featuring virtually every switch, dial, knob and gauge from the real Concorde
• Instruments constructed in 3D with smooth animations
• Fully modelled forward passenger cabin with working doors and custom passenger sounds
• Interactive points for Ground Crew operations such as jetway, fuel truck, power truck, baggage loading and catering truck
• Crew figures in the virtual cockpit are coded to disappear when you occupy their seats

Aircraft systems:

• 3D modelled dials, ADI, 'whiskey' compass and other high-detail instruments designed to emulate the appearance of the real Concorde
• Fully operational fuel transfer and Centre of Gravity balance system, with all 138 lines, 64 pumps and 38 valves correctly represented
• Fully automated fuel transfer system for those who prefer a simpler life
• Weather radar, fully functional Flight Management Computer (CIVA INS will follow when Xbox can support the required gauges)
• Highly realistic flight model - Concorde will only reach Mach 2 and 60,000ft, efficiently enough to reach her destination, if flown correctly
• A full operations manual is included in the software and can also be downloaded here
