"SkySong SoundWorks" DC-3 Sound Set for Microsoft Flight Simulator

 

Together We Fly: "Voices from the DC-3″ -- is the story of an aircraft like none other — a true legend, the icon of an industry, and one of the most recognized aircraft in history, according to company officials. Today, crowds still gather to watch a DC-3 land, technicians revel in the sound of her rumbling radial engines, cargo haulers appreciate her ability to stretch to meet impossible demands, and pilots still dream of flying the greatest airplane ever built.

Author Julie Boatman Filucci recounts fascinating stories, introducing the reader to the people that helped make the DC-3 seem larger than life and greater than the sum of its parts. From the DC-3’s early development, through its many historic roles, and into the present, Voices is a human journey of visionaries, engineers, pilots, mechanics, hostesses, and passengers alike.

A beautiful DC-3 that once belonged to the "Prairie Aviation Museum" in Bloomington, Illinois.

It's a "good news" -  "bad news" story.

 

The World's First Certified DC-3 Simulator!

The MPS DC-3 simulator has recently been certified as an FNPT-II (equivalent to FAA level 5) by the Dutch CAA. In addition, MPS was granted operator status. It is now possible for DC-3 pilots to strengthen their knowledge and skills by flying the DC-3 simulator. Amongst others it is a great opportunity to cover starts, landings, engine failures directly after rotation, propeller feathering, IFR procedures and cockpit re-familiarization.

You can watch this excellent MPS DC-3 Simulator movie HERE

Axel Ebermann - Is a documentary filmmaker and he spent the last four years travelling the worldwith the Dutch Dakota aficionado Hans Wiesman (pictured above). Hans, scours the world for derelict DC-3 parts that he donates to museums or turns into DC-3 designer furniture. Axel says, "And what a journey it was:  Hans talked Malagasy air force commanders into selling him their ‘Dakota’ scrap yards,argued with Thai officials why they should remove wingtips for him before they sink the planes to build artificial reefsand lit up with joy when he found the rare forgotten storage room full of Dakota parts in the jungle of Colombia". 
The result of these adventures is the feature documentary ‘The Dakota Hunter’.
