News! - Aircraft Released! : Aero Commander 500S by Nimbus Simulation Studios

 

Nimbus has released an aircraft called the Aero Commander 500S. If you think that Nimbus is a new developer to X-Plane then your wrong, they are actually an old X-Plane developer, but of sceneries and not aircraft. So this excellent popular Aero Commander is their first foray into fixed-wing flight.

Beautiful 3D model
  • HD textures
  • Custom sounds
  • Pilots and passengers
  • Original AF-520 autopilot.
  • Optional GPS
  • Beautiful night lightning
  • Normal maps
  • Custom systems (autopilot, hydraulic failure, fuel)
  • 4 liveries and more coming
  • Lots of animations and details
 
Nice Reflections
  • Dynamic fuselage reflections
  • Instruments reflections
