DC-10 Collection for FSX/FS2004

Designed by the well-known Commercial Level Simulations, this brings the most authentic quality possible to the series to give you something truly remarkable. It’s made to be user-friendly, though, despite the immense attention to detail. There has been a lot of striving to find the highest possible quality of design and texture quality within the simulation experience, but this really takes every little piece of detail and brings it to life in a way that is hard to replicate elsewhere.

The DC-10

Featuring three engines and a center engine positioned within the vertical tail, this is an aircraft with an immense array and variety of power. Even today, these are used all across the globe to deliver passengers and freight transport for many different companies. Technology may have come a long way since the DC-10 was first released, but it still stands up in comparison to many of the contemporary aircraft out there.

The aircraft was first launched in August 1970, and in the 40+ years of service since it has been one of the most important in the history of aircraft. Although it had safety concerns when first on the market, these were quickly corrected and today it’s still one of the safest aircraft up there in the skies despite its age.

What You Get

When you download the DC-10 Collection, you get a unique and accurate representation of the McDonnell Douglas DC-10. Inside the package, you will find 38 high-quality liveries all created to realistic precision and key attention to detail. With more than fifteen varieties included for maximum replayability with the package, you get to see the DC-10 in its various guises across time until it finally became the aircraft that we all love so much.

Additionally, you’ll get access to the brilliant USAF KC-10 Extender & RDAF KDC-10A air-to-air re-fuelling tankers. This package comes with animated fuel drogues and gives you that extra realistic feel of what flying an aircraft is like, ensuring that you are able to take in every last detail of how a flight actually goes down and how it tends to play out when it comes to re-fuelling.

This package provides you with tutorials and manuals about operating the aircraft and getting the best level of performance, consistency and safety from your flight. This has all been referenced, sourced and prepared by real-life DC-10 experts.

Key Features

• Hugely detailed 3D models included that use some of the finest levels of textures seen on a human within the Microsoft Flight Simulation series. Every little addition that is possible has been included to make sure that not just the flight feels authentic, but the entire experience in general feels as real and as engaging as it possibly can

• A fully useable 3D virtual cockpit, giving you every possible control that can be legitimately used by the simulator itself. This gives you unprecedented control over the aircraft, allowing you to scale heights unseen before in the series and making it easier than ever to take to the skies and really feel like you are in control of a highly powered aircraft

• Wing view option gives you even more viewing potential than before with an incredible amount of detail to be found along every aspect of the plane as you view it from the wing

• New animations created from scratch that includes everything from flaps and spoilers to new rudders and operating doors throughout the aircraft. This breathes new life into the aircraft when static and when in the air, giving you a realistic and truly outstanding quality of flying experience as you get used to all the various things that move and react around you from the cockpit and beyond
