X-Plane 11/10 Boeing 848-F FedEX Version 10 1.0

Boeing 848-F FedEx cargo concept brings a bold, future-forward heavy freighter to X-Plane 10, inspired by NASA and MIT’s D8 “double bubble” ideas. The package includes one aircraft with animated engine fan detail and tuned performance for long-range hauling, from high-altitude cruise to extreme top-end speed.

  1. Extract the downloaded archive

    Use 7-Zip (free) or WinRAR to extract the ZIP to a temporary folder. Don't install while still zipped — the simulator can't read inside ZIP files.

  2. Copy into Aircraft folder

    Place the aircraft folder into X-Plane 12/Aircraft/ (or X-Plane 11/Aircraft/).

  3. Restart X-Plane

    Close X-Plane completely and relaunch. The new content loads automatically.

  4. Always read the included readme

    Every mod ships with a readme.txt or README file. It tells you exactly where files go, what dependencies are needed, and any quirks specific to this add-on.

    First off, thank you. I, of course haven't formed an opinion yet as I haven't even unzipped it yet. I am a big Boing fan from Stearman through their awsome military hardware and especially the 700 series. It looks fantastic. Fed-Ex always looks good but the wide body, double tail look great. I won't be around in 2035 so I'm glad you guys and x-plane are here now. My desk won't run v10 (intergrated graphics). If v9 had more DL options, I'd register. Then again I may have already-can't remember for sure. But great looking work and if it flies like the 757 continental alls right with the world. Sincerely, Bill McDonald
