The DC-9, built by the Douglas Aircraft Company, is a twin-engine, single-aisle, short-to-medium-range jet airliner. The DC-9 family of aircraft is one of the most successful series of airliners ever built, with a total production of over 2,400 aircraft.
This collection from Sky Simulations covers the entire DC-9 family, with five different models: DC-9: -10, -21, -30, -41 and -51. It also includes the -10F and -33F freighter variants.
Now compatible with P3D v4 - features include:
-
NEW aircraft systems
-
NEW electrical system
-
NEW automatic pilot
-
UPDATED hydraulic system.
-
NEW virtual co-pilot (many more functions)
-
General performance increase
-
UPDATED audio system
-
Revised Virtual Cockpit
