FSX Delta Airlines Boeing 787-8

This detailed freeware package adds a complete twin-engine widebody Dreamliner to your simulator, featuring a model by Camil Valiquette with carefully applied Delta-themed exterior textures. It integrates Animated Ground Servicing (AGS) to enhance ground operations and includes an optimized visual structure. Below, you will find an overview of its key capabilities and installation instructions.

Technical Overview

This release represents the Boeing 787-8 variant by CamSim. It incorporates design refinements to improve aerodynamics and general performance. Delta Air Lines branding is depicted on the fuselage, vertical stabilizer, and winglets. The flight deck retains standard systems for a high-fidelity experience in the simulator. Additionally, the model benefits from large windows, characteristic of the 787 family, along with a flight dynamic structure tuned for smooth handling.

Advanced Ground Servicing (AGS)

Camil Valiquette has integrated numerous animation features under AGS. This system brings authentic ground procedures, such as animated cargo doors and service vehicles. The integrated triggers give you command of external elements by using several key assignments:

• Shift + E: Passenger doors
• Shift + D: Cargo doors
• Shift + C: Start or end ground support animations

To ensure these features work properly, configure “Wing fold/unfold” to Shift + C and “Tail hook up/down” to Shift + D within your simulator’s controls menu.

Installation Steps

1. Extract all files into your simulator’s “Airplane” directory. This procedure grants immediate access to the aircraft from your aircraft selection screen.
2. If this is your first CamSim AGS model, also unzip the “Effects.zip” folder into your main simulator directory, which places the necessary night lighting effects in the correct location.

Night Effects

The included night textures have additional lighting enhancements for a more immersive cockpit and external view. Ensure the Effects folder from step two is copied correctly so that these visuals function properly during dusk, night, and dawn operations.
