Stephen Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 News! - On Approach - Beechcraft Duke by DW DesignsComing soon is the stalwart of seventies the Beechcraft 60 Duke. This is a big Twin-engine fixed-wing aircraft with a retractable tricycle landing gear and a pressurized cabin. The two piston engines are turbocharged and this aircraft comes in two versions...The Original Lycoming TIO541-B4 engines that developed 380 hpAnd the Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-21 Turbine version that created 550 hpThe Duke is known for its tall shark like high fin, it is a very distinctive shape and now quite a rare aircraft. Not as popular as the King-Airs, due to its high drag and high ownership cost (which are quite low in X-Plane) most were written off if major engine or airframe work was required.Panel and cabin are highly detailed and the aircraft is well equipped with both a Garmin G530 and G430.Cabin is an arranged club seating with six seats altogether.To date only one white blank livery and three designs are available.No date has been set for release but as the aircraft is in final beta, you could note very soon or Mid-September.Stephen Dutton4th September 2015Copyright©2015: X-PlaneReviews Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
