March 16, 201214 yr Has anyone seen the extreme close up picture just uploaded to the Flight Facebook page hinting what an upcoming aircraft is?My guess is it's a DHC-2 Beaver.

March 17, 201214 yr Moderator I went and looked. I suspect your guess it probably correct. I really do despise Facebook though. Fr. Bill AOPA Member: 07141481 AARP Member: 3209010556 Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator

March 17, 201214 yr Some comments say the image is showing a car! Happy Flying, Clem Wu Beta Tester for OZx, Iris Simulations and Shade.
March 17, 201214 yr Yeah, I loled when I read "A320" and "737" in the comments. :lol:Yep especially since they don't stop to mention airliners even after the first people pointed out that it's a prop. This must be the new audience MS tried to attack :-). No offense guys. Welcome on avsim!

March 17, 201214 yr ill pull out my credit card for a fully funtional DHC-2 Beaver with that pratt & whitney that as far as i can remember has just over 400HP and a GREAT STOL performance .May i say welcome to alaska??? Image removed as image is no longer available.
March 17, 201214 yr The engine seems to be pointing up so it's probably a taildragger. Hopefully it's a DC3 which will come in the "Journey to Alaska" pack. Jehan Kateli
March 17, 201214 yr Cue lots of 'cute beaver' jokes from the gamers.Al Alan Bradbury Check out my youtube flight sim videos: Here
March 17, 201214 yr could be. but unlike some folks on facebook even i can see it's not a jet ;-)To be fair, my first thought was that it was a view of the arse end of a jet engine and I'm a bit gutted to think that it is probably just another single engine prop.

March 17, 201214 yr To me it looks like the nose of a beaver. Even thought IMO the spokes are short for the cowling and the spinner it big.But can also be soo wrongfsxkitty: has a point it seems the engine is pointing up, but it could also be the view angle chosen.

March 17, 201214 yr I just hope it fills a different niche than the Maule, because I don't think they could release anything that would make me switch from that for bush flights.
March 17, 201214 yr Commercial Member I know what it is! Ha! But NDA. Anyways, nobody here has guessed correctly yet, but it will fit in well with the next DLC. Kevin Miller 3D Artist and developer
