The Luscombe Model 8 was one of those classics in aviation that was recognized for its nice lines, good performance, and excellent flying characteristics from its inception 1n 1938. A two-place side-by-side aeroplane, the Model 8A was re-marketed shortly after World War II with the intention of fulfilling the “aeroplane-in-every-garage” ideal.

This Aircraft features all the usual animation, dynamic shine and click able Virtual Cockpit, Converted to fully FSX native format with permission from Lynn & Bill Lyons.

Craig Richardson.


Edit: Located at Everglades Airpark, Florida (FL), USA

I never noticed that they didn't rotate/roll.


EDIT: Now that you mentioned it, your right. The wheel covers sort of block out most of the view of the wheel.

I just sent craig over at classic wings an email bringing this to light. If and when he responds I will pass it on.

See my new thread, the wheels now rotate/roll, Craig sent me a new replacement MDL file and now the wheels turn.

In his email he said: "Opppps ! I must have missed that when compiling it, nice catch !"

So we have you to thank for the catch Bravo :medals::icon_lol:

This is a terrific model for lovers of vintage GA, and I appreciate the fix to make it even better. I like the passenger (Spoiler key, for anyone who hasn't found her) - who wants to fly a 2-seater alone?
