FS2002 Lighting.
A special DC-4, this aircraft is pressurized and
uses Merlin engines.
Tom Gibson and Harry Follas put this aircraft
together, around the fantastic flight dynamics of Brian Horsey.
Super Frame Rates from tower or spot view: You
will Have to resize panel and spot plane view.
All First Class VIP Val-U-Prop Douglas DC-3
Setting new standards for luxury, our DC-3 carries
an elite passenger manifest: Bogart, Bacall, Gary Cooper,
Greta Garbo, Hedy Lamarr, James Stewart - and
many more - all have chosen Val-U-Prop as their premiere
transportation mode.
Based on the fabulous OH-LCH of Jan Visser, the
aircraft has wing views; FS2002 Lighting; Detailed Photo-Panel,
Luxury Cabin; and fully illuminated interior.
ALL FIRST CLASS! ALL FIRST RATE! ALL VAL-U-PROP!

American Airlines Douglas
DC-2
From the brilliant original of Jan Visser, Val-U-Prop
has leased this luxurious Douglas DC-2, complete with panel; wing views;
authentic yoke; and cabin, chocked full of celebrities. Aircraft features
Sperry Autopilot by Arne Bartels, and has ADF only navigation, to make
you think (as did pilots before the jets). Also includes pop-up default
GPS and radio stack for the lazy.
Total surround panel with pilot's left and right
views: all photographic, based on the work of the best aviation photographers
in the business. Plane flies great and is very easy to handle.

Beechcraft Baron Shuttle
Craig Shortino, who brought
us our forum, has come up with this repaint of the default Beech Baron
- as a Val-U-Prop Shuttle! - complete with a new panel, superb NEW flight
dynamics, and sounds and switches for door opening/closing, and other assorted
dings and dongs.
PLUS! Advanced Garmin Avionics,
with GPS readout on MAIN PANEL!
This plane, unlike the original
Microsoft Beech Baron, flies so sweetly, you will fall in love.

Douglas DC-7
The fastest Propliner of
them all, this aircraft will cruise at over 300 knots. I've modified the
flight dynamics to make it a very smooth flyer - but take your time slowing
it down. Comes with pilot's left and right side views; wing views; FS2002
lighting and deluxe cabin filled with celebrities.
*
*
Lockheeed L1049G Constellation
*
Features stable flight dynamics; surround panel
from photographs of Jonathan Derden; authentic wing and cabin views.
This is a very fine aircraft from the studio of
Dave McQueen, brilliantly night-lit, and with real Connie views. VP uses
this plane for long-haul and over-ocean work, in tandem with our DC-7.
Slower than the DC-7, it is a bit more stable, and easier to land. A proud
addition to our fleet!
