RepaintAn historic variant presents a He 51 used by German aviation, with artwork by B. Lechner and an original model created by Craig Richardson, Huub Vink, Tom Falley, and Mathias Pommerien. It requires a separate base model from Fly Away Simulation and uses the file _62+L17 to designate the variation.
PatchBy Jim Jones, an adjustment for the Alphasim Consolidated B-24 Liberator shapes the moving prop into a more transparent form. The change uses the prop.dds file to achieve the effect more clearly in the Liberator.
The Bf109E3 WL IGKS variant supplies visual data used in aerodynamics tests during the development of the Bf-109F. The configuration lists model e3 and variation Bf-109E3 WL-IGKS, ui_type Bf-109E3, with explicit credit to Jindrich Barta.
Complete with Base ModelBy Tony Adams, this Bristol Scout variant is modeled with FSDS3.5 and Photoshop CS2 artwork, and it includes both 2D and virtual cockpit panels. In external views the pilot is animated to show stick and rudder input, with head movement.
Complete with Base ModelThe AW.27 Ensign receives a fresh model that covers Mk.I and Mk.II in three distinct colour schemes. Historic variants include Ensign 1939 for Imperial Airways, Everest 1941 for BOAC wartime service, and Elsinore 1945, while twelve airframes support RAF transports.

It requires MITSUBISHI_J2M3.ZIP, with author Mike Barnes and UI attribution to Piglet's Peculiar Planes.
Complete with Base ModelA native plane, RWD-14b Czapla uses acceleration tools and shows bump maps, specular maps, and self-shadowing. Model credits go to Piotr Mika, Lukasz Kubacki and Micha Puto, with SimHangar involvement; Warsaw, 23.08.2008 marks the origin of this rendition.
Repaint for PaywareBy Henry William, this variant applies US Navy prewar markings to a PBY-5 Catalina using the Aerosoft paint kit mapped to the PBY5_MIL model. The configuration names the version as PBY-5 Navy 11 with atc_id JI-P-30, and notes the Consolidated Catalina served patrols during World War II.
Complete with Base ModelA historical P-51D contributes a faithful portrayal of the Undertaker, a race-66 veteran campaigned in 1976 by George Roberts and later John Muzala.

Each version carries atc_id designations KH661A and KH661B, while the 2011 example operates with the Vintage Wings of Canada out of Gatineau, Quebec.
RepaintTwo variants accompany the model, both tied to the registration G-AHKV and the Automobile Association identity, including textures named texture.G-AHKV-AutomobileAssociation1959 and texture.G-AHKV-AutomobileAssociation1960. Documentation notes 1944 construction and 1957 AA ownership, with G-AHKV serving as a traffic spotter.
Complete with Base ModelNakajima L2D2 adapts a classic airframe as a license-built Douglas DC-3, powered by the Mitsubishi Kinsei 43 1050 HP radial. The configuration relies on default visuals and a modified flight dynamics profile to recreate the Japanese version of the venerable airliner.
Mark Rooks of RDG provides a historically accurate coloration of the North American P-51D Mustang flown by Major George E. Preddy Jr., paired with notes and imagery. A six-file set lists CFG, Airfile, Sound, Model, Panel, and a New Plane folder, while a Gauges file rests in gauges folder.
Complete with Base ModelMustang D racer variant by Bill Green presents as a complete base model with racer-inspired exterior and high-resolution surface work by Robert Hawk, while Mark Rooks refines the framework for smoother operation and enhanced reflective properties.
Version 2 modification by Jim Donnelly for George Diemer’s Sikorsky S-42 NC-822M assigns the Pan Am callsign and flight number 822. It relies on the S42NC822.ZIP package, adds 10 viewpoints (5 cockpit, 5 aircraft), disables autothrottle, and modifies the autopilot to allow banking while holding altitude.
Complete with Base ModelRooks Silva Design Group creates a chrome-finished De Havilland Comet variant, featuring a mirror-like fuselage that highlights rivet lines and panel edges. The project applies an updated alpha channel to control reflections and uses a Light Bending Process called Formula 14, delivering glare realism across viewing angles while preserving detail, including the Silver Comet designation.
