Explore every aspect of this specialized British Airways Boeing 757-200, registration G-CPES, affectionately nicknamed "Wings" and expertly developed by Project Open Sky. This freeware package for FS2004 offers a meticulous flight model, full cabin interiors, and unique Rolls-Royce engine variants that come together to create a complete simulation experience for virtual pilots.

Distinctive Exterior and Interior Elements

  • Dynamic Reflective Surfaces: Engine nacelles, fuselage, and control surfaces feature an advanced reflective layer (dynamic shine) that enhances the realism of external visuals.
  • Selectable Views: Switch between an immersive wingview or a virtual cockpit (VC), both intricately modeled to capture the real feel of a Boeing 757 flight deck.
  • Interactive Doors and Cargo Hatches: Gain easy access to passenger doors, cargo doors, and more. All animations align with actual aircraft configurations for authenticity.
  • Cabin Crew Figures: Realistic 3D flight attendants occupy the passenger cabin and add another layer of visual interest to the interior environment.
  • All Standard Animations: Surfaces such as flaps, spoilers, ailerons, and landing gear deploy smoothly with reliable accuracy.

In-Depth Flight Dynamics and Performance

  • Enhanced FDE: This package pioneers a C32A-specific FDE system, customized for 757-200 variants, delivering exact structural dimensions and optimized performance.
  • Precise Handling: Flight performance aligns closely with performance charts and receives additional input from certified pilots for real-world credibility.
  • Damage Modeling: Major fuselage points, wing flaps, landing gear struts, tires, and powerplants have individual damage profiles to replicate potential wear and tear scenarios reliably.
  • Varied Engine Types: Different Rolls-Royce engine configurations are included. Each variant has distinct power characteristics, thrust curves, and specific fuel consumption data.
  • Dedicated Gauges: Gauge layouts adapt to the engine variant, ensuring accurate readouts matching the selected powerplant parameters.
  • Configurable Gear Points: Both default and alternate gear positions are selectable, providing users with a choice between historical aesthetic accuracy or optimized performance posture.
  • Operations Manual and Speed Charts: A comprehensive reference document is included, containing crucial performance speeds and operational procedures for all stages of flight.
  • FS2004-Compatible Lighting: Refined lighting effects highlight wing edges, fuselage, and landing areas with unprecedented detail for enhanced night operations.

Optional Virtual Cockpit Integration

If you wish to activate the virtual cockpit, download the corresponding VC texture files (if not already included), then open the aircraft.cfg and after the model= line, add "VC". This step modifies the 757 from a simple wingview model into a full virtual cockpit version.

Installation Guide

  1. Unzip the provided package, then place the entire aircraft folder into your main FS2004 AIRCRAFT directory.
  2. Locate the gauge file and insert it into your core GAUGE folder within FS2004.
  3. Move the effects files into the primary EFFECTS folder to enable custom visual elements.
