Version B V to fix the small bug occurred with older gauges., complete package reworked for FSX compatibility. This a my FS2004 Arc en Ciel package, slightly reworked for a complete FSX compatibility. The airplane has moving parts, antennas, landing lights, interior details, opening door ... Includes the custom panel (an original bitmap by me) inspired by the only photo of the real one. The Arc en Ciel (= Rainbow in French), piloted by Mermoz, entered the legend by its direct postal flight across the South Atlantic on jan 16th 1933. And then by many other flights between Europe, Africa and South America. Mermoz used to say that the Arc en Ciel was definitely his favorite plane, with its so particular design and its exceptional performance for this time.Designed by Pat Grange.

    THIS IS A REALLY DIFFERENT DESIGN AND FUN TO FLY. I LIKED THE STRANGE LOOK OF THIS PLANE AND I WOULD PAY ABOUT $5 FOR IT.
