Microsoft Flight Simulator - PMDG Douglas DC-6

Created using one of the world’s last remaining flyable DC-6s as the foundation, PMDG has authentically recreated the airplane, its flight deck, instrumentation, flight characteristics, vibration characteristics and mechanical systems, matching them to the actual airplane and then wrapping them in a fully customized sound-set that is sure to wrap you in the sensory experience that is flying a classic prop-liner.

From takeoff to touchdown, PMDG’s Virtual Flight Engineer can guide you through the experience or can sit quietly while you do all the work. Task him to take over all of the systems, checklists and engine management tasks, allowing you to enjoy the flying experience as you learn to fly this sophisticated, highly capable airliner.

We worked closely with the Volocopter engineering team to develop an authentic version of the prototype aircraft for the simulator. This is our first aircraft that can perform pinpoint landings and is a teaser of what you can look forward to in 2022 when we intend to launch helicopters in the sim. • Pilatus PC-6 Porter: This legendary short takeoff and landing (STOL) utility aircraft is a highly versatile plane from Switzerland and comes with several cockpits, cabins, and landing gear variations.

New Missions – Based on the popularity of the recently introduced Discovery Flights, we are adding an additional six locations (Helsinki, Freiburg im Breisgau, Mecca, Monument Valley, Singapore, and Mount Cook) to this popular series. New Tutorials – To further expand the onboarding experience, we are adding 14 new tutorials, introducing simmers to Bush flying (in an Icon A5) and IFR (in a Cessna 172).
