FSX Saunders Roe SR-45 "Princess". The SR-45 first flew in 1952 and was one of the largest flying boats ever built. It was overshadowed by the upcoming land based 707 and DC-8 so only one was finished and test flown. This is a native FSX Acceleration project. It has the usual animations, specular shine, .dds textures, reverse thrust, and turbine smoke that turns on and off as a function of throttle position. The VC is based on a photo and has animated flight and engine controls. There is no 2D panel. There are two liveries, the factory paint and the proposed BOAC livery. By Paul Clawson.

I remember seeing the Princess and the Brabazon side by side flying over freshwater after being at the Farnborough air show.

the detail on this aircraft is quite low but it flies very well. All you need to do for takeoff is put full flaps and full throttle to do a short takeoff. pull up at 80 knots(with full flaps)

Fun for the first few minutes. the six engines are really cool, but they must not work that well because it basically took me a whole lake to be able to take off. when i finally did, i didn't have much speed. Sum up; for those who really are bored.
