Please take note of which X-Plane version each model requires!
Look for the X-Plane 12 or X-Plane 11 logo at the top right of each model to ensure you are selecting the right version. We are in the process of updating all of models for X-Plane 12, so please check back from time to time... X-Plane 11 models are still available for the models that have been updated to X-Plane 12 - please see the "X-Plane 11 Models" page for the older versions.
We've updated the venerable Cherokee 140 for X-Plane 12 with a new default livery, newly remodeled interior and a brand-new custom coded Aspen E5 PFD/MFD glass panel integrated with our custom Bendix/King KFC 230 touch-screen autopilot.
Three different panel configurations are available from the pop-up Options Menu. The default panel is our glass panel option featuring our Aspen E5 simulation and a radio stack loaded with GPS options, COM2/NAV2 radio, AXP 340 transponder, Bendix/King KFC 230 touch-screen autopilot, KN62A DME and a KR87 ADF receiver.

Piper Arrow III G5 E1000
Our popular Piper Arrow III model has been completely rebuilt for X-Plane 12. The Arrow III features our custom Garmin G5 simulation AND our custom Aspen EFD1000 simulation. Both versions are included in your purchase and are selectable using the Options Menu.
- G5 Version – Our custom Garmin G5 simulation was developed by vFlyteAir with the assistance of real-world pilots who regularly fly the Garmin G5. With their help, we believe we have created a very plausible and realistic simulation of the G5 exclusively for use in our own fleet of aircraft. No 3rd party plugins required! The G5 version can also be switched to a traditional analog-gauge panel using the Options Menu. The G5 can be configured to use either Imperial or Metric units for altitude and airspeed. Your G5 settings are saved each time you fly, and are restored the next time you fly. The G5 units can be "popped out" to X-Plane Context Windows which can be displayed on a separate monitor if desired.
- E1000 Version – For those who prefer the Aspen EFDE1000, we have updated our E1000 simulation to provide a more realistic and accurate experience. The E1000 version can also be switched to a traditional analog-gauge panel using the Options Menu. The E1000 can be configured to use either Imperial or Metric units for altitude and airspeed. Your E1000 settings are saved each time you fly, and are restored the next time you fly. The E1000 unit can be "popped out" to X-Plane Context Windows which can be displayed on a separate monitor if desired.
Cessna 150 Commuter with Two Panel Options
Rebuilt for X-Plane 12! One of the most popular training aircraft of all time, our Cessna 150 Commuter is a great choice for those who love GA flying. Your choice of either a basic trainer instrument panel (six-pack, one COM/NAV radio, transponder, and OBS) or the "Commuter" panel which includes a KMA20 audio panel, KX165A COM1/NAV1 radio, KX165 COM2/NAV2 radio, KT76 transponder, KN62A DME and a simulated Cessna Navomatic 330A single-axis autopilot. With support for animated rain and ice effects and the Avitab plugin, your commuter jaunts are covered! Custom, original sound recordings by SimAcoustics provide 100% genuine Cessna 150 engine sounds and other authentic sound effects
Features include shake effects which occur on engine startup, engine shutdown, stalls, and landings (shake effects can be turned off), choice of male or female pilot, custom engine startup which forces the pilot to use the primer, mixture and throttle according the POH, optional wheel fairings, and a pop-out kneeboard with adjustable pilot and copilot weight, luggage weight and fuel. A dynamic weight & balance chart helps to ensure that your loading is within CG limits. The kneeboard also has normal procedures check lists. For added realism, you can pull your C150 out of the hangar using the tow bar.

The "Steam Gauges" panel is for those who prefer flying with analog primary gauges. The "Steam Gauges" panel replaces the G5 units with an artificial horizon and HSI. The autopilot is a KAP-140 dual-axis. Engine instruments are original analog.
De Havilland DHC-3T Turbo Otter
At the end of 2019, vFlyteAir acquired the rights to the Military Visualizations (Milviz) Turbo Otter model. As a primary co-developer in the project, we wanted to make sure this excellent model was well-supported going forward.
The Turbo Otter comes in 3 different configurations; wheels version, amphibious version and floats version. Powered by the Pratt Whitney PT6-34 turbine engine, the Turbo Otter has 750HP for STOL take-offs and water take-offs. The Turbo Otter has three different panel configurations to choose from. Custom sounds by SimAcoustics provide an immersive experience, complete with the sounds of turbo-prop beta and reverse. Five genuine liveries are provided. A pop-out menu comes complete with options selections, selectable passenger and cargo loading, dynamic weight & balance, fuel loading and livery selection.
The Turbo Otter is a faithful simulation of the turbo-prop PT6-34 retrofit for the Otter. The wheels version has optional skis that can be added for landing in snowy climes. The Turbo Otter is a highly detailed, authentic representation of the actual DHC-3T. Instrument panel, tailwheel operation, fuel transfer, portable oxygen system and authentic hand-pump operation of the flaps and landing gear (amphib version) provide an immersive experience in this work horse of the aviation world.

Ikarus C42C
The Ikarus C42C is a very popular ultra-light trainer built in Germany. Modeled from the real-world D-MYSF, which our very own Mario Donick flies for his student pilot training! Almost 100 original sound recordings were made from D-MYSF to create a highly immersive FMOD sound experience for this model. Two models are included; the "Basic Trainer" is a replica of the real D-MYSF - it has a basic VFR panel and is perfect for practicing your pilotage skills and visual navigation. The "Full Panel" version adds a simulated flymap L glass panel display with a simple GPS flight planner, artificial horizon and moving-map display. Also included with the Full Panel version is a transponder and simulated FLARM traffic monitor.
The Ikarus C42C is classified in the USA as a Light Sport Aircraft and in Europe as an UltraLight aircraft.

Grumman Tiger
A real classic, the Grumman Tiger saw some service in military operations early in its history and was later redesigned for civilian service. The Tiger was an evolution of the Grumman AA-5 model (see the Traveler below). It is a low-wing, fixed-pitch propeller airplane with a sliding canopy. The Tiger was first produced in 1974 as a 1975 model. Shown at left is the original livery specially designed for the Tiger when it was first released to the public.
The Tiger has an STEC System 30 autopilot integrated into the Turn Coordinator insrument, Garmin 430 GPS (X-Plane), custom Garmin GTX327 transponder, custom TerraNAV OBS, Directional Gyro, Artificial Horizon and a custom JPI EDM 700 Engine Monitor.
With hi-res textures and highly detailed animations and modeling, the Tiger is a real joy to fly. We modeled the Tiger partially from a real-world example located in Texas.
Grumman Traveler
The little sister to the Grumman Tiger, the Traveler AA-5 was itself an evolution of the American Aviation two-seat AA-1 Yankee. First produced in 1971, the Traveler was soon sold to Grumman Aircraft. Originally intended to be a competitor to the Cessna 172 as a trainer aircraft, the Traveler did not enjoy the same success as the 172. The Traveler was known to be too "hot" for student pilots, and required more attention to energy management, especially on landings.
The Traveler's instrument panel includes the usual required six-pack gauge cluster, along with an autopilot, ADF, Directional Gyro, transponder, DME, COM1 and COM2, and NAV1 radios.
Ryan Navion
The North American Navion was originally envisioned as an aircraft that would perfectly match the expected postwar boom in civilian aviation, since it was designed along the general lines of, and by the same company which produced the North American P-51 Mustang. Later, Ryan Aviation aquired the rights to the Navion. We've tried to capture the essence of this classic model in the details. Period-correct gauges and instruments with time-worn interior textures will make you feel like you've traveled back in time. This big bird is a lot of fun to fly! It features a Brittain B-4 autopilot with wing-leveler, HDG, VOR track and Approach capability and has an Altitude Hold button also. A vintage OBS instrument allows VOR tracking. The panel is arranged almost exactly as shown in the 1950 Navion 205 POH (included with the download).
The Navion 205 is for X-Plane 11.25 or newer, and is optimized for Virtual Reality. It features custom HDR lights, PBR textures, and FMOD sounds.
