This is a standalone full package of Thomas Ruth and Erick Cantu's KC10. It sports the AX tail code of Aeroworks Flight Center 3 as well as the FX tail code of Australis OC. The package includes two schemes reminiscent of the Shamu schemes of the 1980s. Updates and paint by Jason L. Terry with additional Beta Testing by Mike Vivaldi and Austin "Firestorm" Gardner.

Night Cargo 203 - Shamu scheme based at Aeroworks Facility 3 at Echo Canyon, Railroad Valley Nv. 2014
Air Force 204 - Grey Ghost scheme based at Australis Ops Center, Alice Springs Australia 2014

Minor updates over the original:

  • Tweaked flight dynamics for more realistic handling, the original version had a good flight model but slightly too much roll for a plane of this size.
  • 2 New scheme with AX/FX tail codes.
  • Added differential brakes so you can turn easier while braking.
  • Added a Fuel Management gauge of my own design.

Known issues:

  • The VC doesn't have the fuel management gauge due to the way it was mapped the locations of that gauge could not be added.

I hope everyone enjoys this scheme and updates. Credit is due to Thomas Ruth and Erick Cantu for the original, and I thank them for making it free for all to use and upload as they see fit.
