A2A SIMULATIONS - WINGS OF POWER 3 - P-40
By: Slavi_70 Date: March 13, 2012, 12:47 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
The P-40 was one of the most important fighters of World War II.
Not because of it’s raw performance, but because it was widely
available and served it’s role well and it remained a favorite
aircraft to the pilots that knew it best. The P-40 was a very
cost-effective aircraft to produce, and over a 5-year period,
almost 14,000 P-40 aircraft were produced. The P-40 flew in
Africa, Asia, and Europe and is probably most remembered for
being used by the Flying Tigers AVG (American Volunteer Group),
with its famous shark-toothed paint scheme. The P-40 roots are
from the Curtiss Hawk 75. With the impending war, Curtiss built
on the Hawk’s proven airframe and equipped it with the Allison
V-1710 engine.
The Wings of POWER 3: P-40 MkI/II FEATURES:
Rugged, fast, and maneuverable.
As with every A2A aircraft, it is gorgeously constructed,
inside and out, down to the last rivet.
Designed and built to be flown "By The Book".
Custom Cockpit Systems and Gauges.
Visual Real-Time Load Manager, with the ability to load fuel
and stores in real-time.
Naturally animated pilot.
3D Lights 'M' (built directly into the model) with
under-wing landing light than can be turned on, deployed, and
retracted and fully functional recognition lights.
Pure3D Instrumentation now with natural 3D appearance with
exceptional performance.
Sound engineered by A2A sound professionals.
Oil pressure system models oil viscosity (oil thickness).
Authentically modeled pneumatic system.
In cockpit pilot's map for handy in-flight navigation.
Auto-Mixture that actually performs as intended. Now you can
set for “auto-rich” or "auto-lean" and the aircraft fuel-to-air
ratio will be automatically determined and set by the carburetor
based upon various factors, such as altitude.
