vFlyteAir Simulations - Piper Twin Comanche for X-Plane 11

The Piper Twin Comanche is our first twin-engine model for X-Plane. It is a complex airplane, with retractable gear, 4 seats and twin Lycoming IO-320 engines providing 160 HP each and cruise speeds of approximately 140-150 kt fully loaded. Our Twin Comanche was developed from a real-world example (tail number N92NE, a 1964 model). We built the Twin Comanche specially for X-Plane 11. Because we had access to the real airplane, our X-Plane version is highly detailed, right down to the operation of the emergency gear. True to the original real-world example, the Twin Comanche has no ignition key - the magnetos and starter switches are rocker switches located in the pilot-side door panel.

We loaded the Twin Comanche with lots of options such as selectable tip tanks, virtual reality optimization, FMOD sounds, PBR textures and much more! Check out the Special Features list below for a full description of all features.
