The Aircraft Models


The SkySim McDonnell Douglas DC-9 FSX add-on covers the entire DC-9 family, including five different models: DC-9: 10, 21, 30, 41 and 51. The freighter versions will be available soon. Each model is fully native to Flight Simulator X, and has its own unique characteristics and specifications. The add-on also includes different liveries for each model, representing various airlines from around the world.


The exterior models are accurately modeled and animated, with every detail of the aircraft being faithfully reproduced. Some of the features include:



  • Perfectly simulated loss of hydraulic pressure. (Elevators, spoilers, landing gear and flaps will block without hydraulic pressure)

  • Main Door, service door, cargo door, forward stairs, rear stairs (except 10 version) and cockpit windows accurately modeled and animated.

  • Horizontal stabilizer movement based on real aircraft system logic and real data.

  • Fully operational 3 positions landing lights. (retracted, extended off and extended on)

  • Aileron and Elevator actuated by aerodynamic movement of the control tab.

  • Moving wipers (2 Speeds)

  • Accurately modeled and Animated thrust reversers.

  • PARKING MODE (ENHANCED): Catering Truck, Belt Loader, Baggage Train, Loader (In "F" version)

  • GROUND SUPPORT: GPU and Air Starter unit (accurately modeled) interacts with the aircraft systems

  • Animated Ground personnel.

  • MAINTENANCE MODE: Engines, LG Doors, Weather Radar


The Virtual Cockpit


The virtual cockpit is one of the highlights of this add-on. It is fully functional and animated, with nearly every knob and switch being operational. You can perform a complete flight within the VC, without having to use any 2D panels. The VC also has photoreal retouched and digitalized high definition textures, giving it a realistic look and feel. The VC also has two different layouts available in accordance with the type of the aircraft.


Some of the features of the VC include:



  • MULTI ENHANCED 3D INSTRUMENTS

  • VC NEW LIGHTING EFFECTS

  • NEW FULLY ENHANCED COCKPIT TEXTURES

  • NEW WINGS

  • DYNAMIC FLEXIBLE WINGS ADDED

  • NEW LANDING GEARS

  • NEW HORIZONTAL STABILIZER

  • NEW CABIN ENTRY AND CABIN DOORS

  • REDESIGNED CARGO BAYS

  • SYSTEMS UPDATED AND REFINED

  • ENHANCED ENGINE SOUNDS

  • EXTENSIVE EXTERIOR AND INTERIOR NEW DETAILS


The Flight Dynamics


The flight dynamics of this add-on are tested by real airline pilots and in many real world comparisons. They are based on real data and manuals, as well as on the sensation in many hours on the real flight simulator. The wing airfoil profile is based completely on the Douglas wing airfoil DSMA-357/433 -A. The flight dynamics are totally reliable on flight manuals, performance and climb. The weight and balance are also perfectly simulated in accordance with the weight and balance manual.


The Conclusion


The SkySim McDonnell Douglas DC-9 FSX add-on is a must-have for any fan
