FSX DeHavilland DH.91 Albatross

De Havilland’s DH.91 Albatross brings a 1938 four‑engined British airliner to life with Imperial Airways and BOAC heritage, offering a refined Version 3 model, a more accurate panel, and a richer virtual cockpit for period flying. Built for FSX, it includes tailored gauges and authentic sound work to match the aircraft’s character.

For FSX only, FS2004 users should download DH91_V3.zip instead.

For more details and flying instructions, please see the pdf document installed in the \Manual folder.

Version 3.0, with more accurate panel, more detail in the virtual cockpit, and other improvements.

*To install for Flight Simulator X:

Run the included setup_fsx program.

The gauges are to a large extent standard gauges of Flight Simulator, some of them modified by me. The RPM and fuel gauges are by me, but with much inspiration from gauges by Microsoft.

Magneto switches, starter buttons, and some engine gauges are besed on public domain gauges by Mike (MoparMike) Wagner, converted to XML by myself.

The OBS selector gauge is by Hans-Joerg Naegele, used with permission.

The ADF and NAV/DME indicators are from the KeDi gauge set by Hauke Keitel.

Sounds: The sound files are from the FS2004 De Havilland Comet, modified to be less noisy. I have had to include them here, because FSX doesn't include the DH88 Comet.

This plane was originally made with FSDS 2.24, this version with FSDS 3.5.1. Textures with Paint Shop Pro and DxtBmp.

It is freeware and must stay that way.

I hope you like flying the DH91!
