This standalone package adds new startup procedures, auto-mixture management, interactive checklist, VC chatter and the 'Monitor' panel to a re-textured VC.
The mods are largely based on Jan Visser's (team DIGITAL DAKOTA WORKS) C-47 package. Models revised by Manfred Jahn, textures by Gordon (gman) Madison and Nick Cooper, testing by Alan G. Ampolsk and Ralf Scholten.
Original historical research by John Detrick, flight dynamics by Alexander M. Metzger, gauges, animations, and failure conditions by Hansjoerg Naegele.
This package allows simmers to fly any of Manfred Jahn's V3 C-47s from a modern VC complete with 3D GPS, radio and AP panels, annunciator screen, interactive checklist, and 2D 'Monitor' panel.
The package is full-scale standalone (165 MB zipped) and includes two exterior models - a Piedmont Airlines C-47 and a ski-equipped US Navy R4D-5.

The BF2C Goshawk (Model 67) carrier fighters were introduced into United States Navy service in Oct 1934 for use aboard USS Ranger. Their service aboard Ranger would only last a number of months as it was observed that their landing gears were not up to par, but generally the US Navy felt that the 27 purchased contributed to the development of the American aircraft carrier force.
The Cessna 172 was based on the Cessna 170 taildragger, and in 1956 the most notable difference between the airplanes was the gear. The tricycle gear that helped make the Cessna 172 an excellent training airplane was named Land-O-Matic by the marketing department.
