FS2004 SAAB-90 Scandia

The SAAB 90 Scandia brings a classic postwar twin-engine airliner to FS2004, recreating SAS and VASP-era operations with a detailed virtual cockpit and period-appropriate systems. Custom-modified twin-engine sounds, tailored gauges including an ILS indicator, and carefully finished textures capture the feel of a DC-3 replacement from aviation’s transitional years.

The SAAB Scandia was a twin-engined airliner intended as a 'DC-3 replacement'. It first flew in 1947, and served with SAS until 1957. The only other user was VASP in Brazil. By Jens B. Kristensen.

Sounds:

Based on a DC-6 soundset by Mike Hambly, modified for two engines and converted to FS2004 format, using FS Sound Studio, by myself.

Gauges:

The gauges are to some extent based on default gauges of Flight Simulator FSX or FS2004, most of them modified by me. Other gauges are by myself.

The ILS indicator is based on xml code by Saviero Maurri (Vickers Varsity panel), bitmaps by me.

A number of gauges (mostly switches) are, with permission from Tom Gibson, Cal Classic, based on work by Tom himself, Kevin Trinkle, Ernie Kennedy and Ken 'Mitch' Mitchell.

This plane was made with FSDS 3.5.1, the textures with Paint Shop Pro and DxtBmp.
