The DeHavilland DHC2-MK3 Turbo Beaver Amphibian in Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources livery (Reg_ID: C-FOPA) is a comprehensive freeware aircraft add-on designed to provide an immersive aerial experience for bush operations. Enjoy fully realized amphibious functionality, custom flight dynamics, and a detailed interior configured for a wide range of missions in Microsoft Flight Simulator X.
Engineered Structure and Amphibious Prowess
Originally developed for Canadian backcountry and floatplane deployments, the Turbo Beaver Amphibian boasts a reinforced airframe that accommodates rugged environments and demanding conditions. This model reflects the real aircraft’s capabilities, offering robust wing surfaces, full suspension geometry, and water rudders. As a result, sim pilots can land on remote lakes or swiftly transition to hard runways without compromising stability.
Distinctive Visual Model
The aircraft was constructed in FSDS2 and FSDS3, ensuring precise animation detail and smooth wing surfaces. Designers integrated a dynamic shine effect, highlighting the metallic textures in varying light conditions. The overall paint scheme matches the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources’ authentic colors, contributing to the realism while taxiing ashore or gliding on waterways.
Flight Deck and Operational Readiness
This add-on supplies two dedicated 2D panels alongside a versatile virtual cockpit (VC). The flight deck incorporates highly visible instruments, with easy access to all crucial switches and displays. The dynamic VC also features a complete cabin interior, permitting virtual aviators to move from the pilot’s seat to the passenger area seamlessly. Furthermore, the custom sound pack replicates engine and cabin acoustics, adding an extra layer of immersion.
Accessibility and Cabin Features
Various doors, including crew and passenger entries, can be opened to match on-ground or docking procedures. A cargo door with integrated steps simplifies loading and unloading scenarios. These functional animations enhance the sense of authenticity during operations in rugged backcountry settings or busy seaports.
Built-In Checklists and Documentation
All functional aids, such as Check and Reference HTML files, help ensure smooth and accurate procedures during each flight. Pilots seeking additional panel guidance can consult the Panel_Docs folder, or refer to the in-flight Ref List on the simulator’s kneepad interface.
Imagery and Visual Samples
Development and Freeware Package
Created collaboratively by Jean-Pierre Brisard, Barry Blaisdell, Bob May, and Kevin Pardy at Premier Aircraft Design, this freeware release arrives with a fully integrated base model. It is meticulously tuned for users seeking an enhanced amphibious platform within Microsoft Flight Simulator X. From its accurate tailwheel stance to its specialized water rudders, every detail echoes real-world performance, making it a valuable addition for virtual aviators looking to explore diverse terrains and waterways.

FSX DeHavilland DHC2-MK3 Turbo Beaver . The propeller disk display fix from "Premier Aircraft Design" doesn't work! I have a high end i7 SSD system, and the prop spin is a grey disk. I dl'd the fix and it couldn't be opened. The meesage said file was empty? There is no support from premier. This AC should be pulled from downloads.
