Introducing our latest addition to the X-Plane 12 family: the PA-28R Arrow III by Just Flight, in partnership with Thranda Design.
Building on the success of the X-Plane 11 version and following the debut of the Duchess 76 for X-Plane 12, this meticulously crafted simulation of the PA-28R Arrow III was developed by Just Flight's in-house team in collaboration with Thranda Design. Our team conducted extensive, hands-on research with the real-life Arrow III, G-BGKU, based at Conington Airfield, to ensure the highest level of accuracy and detail.
The PA-28R Arrow III is a versatile, four-seater, piston-engine aircraft featuring a retractable tricycle landing gear and a constant-speed propeller. It is perfect for both touring and instrument training. Our add-on, which includes seven paint schemes representing the UK, USA, Germany, The Netherlands, Poland, and New Zealand, in addition to our UK research aircraft, G-BGKU, reflects its global popularity.
Key features of the PA-28R Arrow III for X-Plane 12 include:
Brand new PBR materials with real-time environment reflections for unmatched quality and realism.
8K textures for the highest possible clarity.
A brand-new tablet EFB featuring aircraft configuration states, interactive checklists, and customisation options.
Numerous animations, including a multi-animation passenger door that responds to G-forces and air resistance when open.
