Just Flight, a developer widely known among the flight simulation community for past releases such as the Avro RJ70, RJ85, and RJ100 for Microsoft Flight Simulator, has just released a new aircraft. In collaboration with Thranda Design, Just Flight presents the PA-28-161 Warrior II for X-Plane 12.
About The PA-28-161 Warrior II
The PA-28-161 Warrior II is a four-seater, piston-engine aircraft equipped with a fixed tricycle landing gear, 160hp four-cylinder engine, and a fixed-pitch propeller. It is widely flown worldwide, given its ideal performance capabilities for touring and flight training.
The product features liveries from the USA (N3572M), the United Kingdom (G-BUIF, G-BNOH), Switzerland (HN-PNL), Spain (EC-IOS), and Australia (VH-PZN). Thranda’s Dynamic Livery System is also included, which will allow you to create your own liveries within X-Plane 12, using the EFB app.
PA-28-161 Warrior II Released for XP12
In collaboration with Thranda Design, Just Flight has developed the aircraft based on “comprehensive, hands-on research” with a real-life Warrior II, G-BOZI, based at Conington Airfield in the United Kingdom. To take advantage of improvements to the X-Plane 12 engine, the team has rebuilt the flight model to match real-world data, meaning the aircraft will behave even closer to its real-world counterpart, taking another step in realism terms.
The aircraft, featuring 8K textures, a new refurbished interior, and completely reworked exterior textures featuring PBR materials, also includes a brand-new EFB. This EFB includes new functions such as aircraft configuration, customization, and interactive checklists.
The team took the aircraft a step further with numerous new animations, including a multi-animation passenger door that, when open, responds to G-forces and air resistance. The Warrior also features a completely new FMOD sound pack from Sim Acoustics which uses high-quality recordings from the real aircraft, allowing you to hear the real aircraft tones.
Closing Notes
The product is retailed at Just Flight’s website for US$42.99, and its size once installed is 4.0GB. If you would like to read more flight simulation news about recent releases, do not hesitate to check out our Aerosoft CRJ v2 article.
