May 3, 200719 yr Hello allI was browsing through my install files and a folder for the Dehavilland Dash 8C:Program FilesMicrosoft GamesMicrosoft Flight Simulator XSimObjectsAirplanesDH_Dash8_100But in the game when I go to select an airplane, the Dash8 is nowhere to be found and I really want to fly it! what can/should I do?
May 3, 200719 yr It is an AI aircraft, as is the MD-80 and Cherokee. That means not flyable by default.It is possible to add a panel and make it flyable, but I dont have all the details so I will let the better informed about that particular process weigh in. ex-Aces Lead PM, FSX SP1 and SP2 ex-Intel LRB native title enablement, ex Intel Gaming and Graphics Samples PM now Graphics and Multicore PM in Visual Computing Software Enabling.
May 4, 200719 yr ok that makes sense.Is it hard to get it flyable, or is there a 3rd party Dash8 available?
May 4, 200719 yr Premier Aircraft Design is working on a Dash-8 release.http://www.premaircraft.com/index.html
May 4, 200719 yr Yes. They are coming out with a patch for FSX. Their FS9 version of the plane is unbelievable. My friend was running the control module on a different computer setting creating failure conditions while I was flying. It even has an inflight entertainment system.
May 4, 200719 yr Can't wait to get it. Flight 1's ATR for FS9 was great, but this one seems to be the best you can get. Any idea about the FSX ETA?
