Questions

Beech Duke for FSX was first produced in 1968 and was in production until the 1980s. Elegant, pressurized cabin and good performance, she was loved by her owners despite the expensive of running her. Developed by the award-winning RealAir, thankfully you wona??t have to worry about the bills. Instead this beautiful simulated aircraft makes the perfect platform for IFR flights, or just taking to the skies for the sheer pleasure of flying... this must be one of the most satisfying simulations of a piston twin yet available for FSX. Features High resolution textures. Smooth and accurately shaped 3D model. Bump mapping which captures the look of stretched metal skin. A highly refined flight model featuring: Accurate single-engine asymmetrical performance and handling. Highly detailed flight control that is a joy to fly and pleasure to handle. Realistic side-slipping the Duke is actually cleared for sideslips for up to 30 seconds! Accurate performance figures (cruise, climb, takeoff, stall speed etc). Accurate engine handling characteristics (fuel flow, CHT etc). A beautifully rendered virtual cockpit and panel featuring 3D gauges which are exact replicas of the Beechcraft and Bendix/King gauges found in real-world Dukes. Ultra-smooth gauge animation. Accurate modelling of all the Duke's systems. Accurate simulation of the Duke's pressurised cabin. Bendix/King radios and autopilot Well-equipped IFR panels. Visual stall-buffet effect. Comprehensive documentation including: A detailed 37 page flying and setup guide. Detailed Pilot's Checklists. Detailed charts outlining such things as takeoff performance, cruise performance, cruise power settings, range, plus more. This beautiful simulated aircraft makes the perfect platform for IFR flights, or just taking to the skies for the sheer pleasure of flying... this must be one of the most satisfying simulations of a piston twin yet available for FSX.

“Brilliant aircraft, the pressurised cabin is so much more fun in a light aircraft. Delivery was quick and no fuss.”

“This is a great aircraft to fly and is very realistic indeed. However,I purchased the boxed version and found that the instruments did not work properly,after advice from Flightstore I downloaded a patch from Fligh1 and this corrected this problem. There can also be difficulties on take off, but programming the autopilot to the required altitude and activating after gear-up resolved this difficulty, after that the plane flies as normal. I now fly this aircraft all the time. Hope this helps Ken.”
