Just Flight - PA-28R Arrow III & Turbo Arrow III/IV Bundle for MSFS

This Arrow Bundle includes both of the Just Flight PA-28R Arrow add-ons for Microsoft Flight Simulator - the PA-28R Arrow III plus the PA-28R Turbo Arrow III/IV.

These aircraft have been developed by Just Flight's in-house team following comprehensive, hands-on research with the real aircraft.

The Arrow III and Turbo Arrow III/IV are four seater, piston-engine aircraft equipped with a retractable tricycle landing gear and constant-speed propeller – ideal for touring and instrument training. First available in 1977, the Turbo Arrow III was the first turbocharged variant of the PA-28R Arrow, retaining the conventional tail of the Arrow III and a new cowling which housed the six-cylinder turbocharged engine. The Turbo Arrow IV followed in 1979 and featured a distinctive T-tail.

The Arrow is flown all around the world and this add-on reflects that global popularity, featuring a total of 21 liveries from around the world - 11 for the Arrow III, five for the Turbo Arrow III and five for the Turbo Arrow IV.

Model

• Accurately modelled PA-28R-201 Arrow III, PA-28R-201T Turbo Arrow III and PA-28RT-201T Turbo Arrow IV, built using real-world aircraft plans and comprehensive photography of the real aircraft


• Numerous animations including passenger door, baggage door, cockpit storm window, sun visors and oil cover


• Ground equipment including chocks, tie-downs and pushback towbar


• 4096x4096 textures are used to produce the highest possible texture clarity


• PBR (Physically Based Rendering) materials with real-time environment reflections for superb quality and realism


• Detailed normal mapping for down-to-the-rivet precision of aircraft surfaces


• Ground services support (marshaller and fuel truck)


• Full support for MSFS visual icing effects

Cockpit

• A truly 3D virtual cockpit right down to accurately modelled seat belts and screw heads - every instrument is constructed fully in 3D with smooth animations


• Cockpit textures feature wear and tear based on reference photos taken in the real aircraft to produce an authentic environment. Optional 'clean' textures for a less worn look are provided for the PA-28R Arrow III.


• Dimmable instrument, radio and dome lighting, with separate control circuits


• Tablet EFB for controlling various aircraft options, and checking aircraft and flight information:
  - 'Cold & Dark', 'Ready for Take-off' and ‘Ready for Start’ aircraft states
  - Persistent aircraft states, allowing you to always return to your cockpit in the same state that you last left it
  - Automatic fuel tank switching for use on those long distance cross-country flights
  - GPS unit selection – GPS 100, GNS 430/GNS 530 and GTN 750 (requires freeware PMS-50 GTN 750)
  - Direction Indicator (DI) or Horizontal Situation Indicator (HSI) instrument options
  - Aircraft failures (spark plug fouling, vapour lock, oil use and battery failure)
  - Passenger, baggage and oil inspection door controls
  - Flight computer with useful information such as fuel burn, endurance, speed and wind speed/direction


• Fully functional and comprehensive IFR capable avionics fit including:
  - KMA 20 audio selector unit
  - KX 170B COM 1 / NAV 1 radio
  - KX 175B COM 2 / NAV 2 radio
  - KN 62 DME unit which can display information from NAV 1, NAV 2 or its own inbuilt receiver (NAV 3)
  - Piper Autocontrol IIIB autopilot unit with navigation, heading and roll hold (altitude hold clickspot included)
  - KT 76A transponder unit
  - KR 85 ADF unit with ADF/ANT/BFO modes and support for fractional frequencies, e.g. 383.3
  - GPS 100, GNS 430/GNS 530 and GTN 750 (requires freeware PMS-50 GTN 750)
  - HSI/OBS support RNAV approach indications


• Fully compatible with MSFS VR mode


• Yoke-mounted flight timer/clock


• Independently operated left and right (standby) altimeter with mb and inHg barometric scales depending on units of measure setting


• Developed using the latest MSFS standards, including intuitive and easy-to-use controls for rotary knobs, multi-position switches and levers

Aircraft Systems

• Engine turbocharger fixed wastegate and overboost simulation (progressive engine failure due to overboost if wastegate fails, with EFB controls for monitoring and resetting engine damage/failure) - TURBO MODELS ONLY


• Custom-coded fuel system including the option to have automatic switching of the fuel tanks for use on those long distance cross-country flights


• Custom-coded electrical system with functional circuit breakers


• Realistic landing gear system with emergency and automatic release at low airspeeds


• Functioning alternate air and static source controls


• Failures including spark plug fowling, limited battery life, vapor lock and more


• Lighting system includes separate lighting control for instruments (via rheostat) and realistic implementation of navigation light / radio light rheostat


• Functional electric trim control on yoke (requires electric trim button to be pushed)


• Functional ELT which is automatically triggered above 4.6G


• Many other details, such as a passenger door that automatically closes with airflow and vibrating engine exhausts!


• Full support for MSFS checklists (manual and automatic/co-pilot modes)

Sounds

The aircraft feature a MSFS-native (Wwise) sound package taking full advantage of the new capabilities. Each model has unique engine sounds to match the real-world differences and every little detail has been faithfully recreated based on high fidelity recordings from real life PA-28s.

• Original Lycoming IO-360 engine samples


• Detailed physics-based effects on engine and wind noise


• Authentic audio for every switch, button, lever and electrical systems


• Accurately positioned 3D sound sources (best enjoyed in VR!)


• Custom crash and scraping effects


• Authentic retractable gear whistle


• Background panel rattle on low engine RPMs and more!
