This repaint enhances the historical Arado Ar-96b trainer used by the Luftwaffe at Flugzeugfuhrerschule A/B 32 in Pardubitz (present-day Pardubice, Czech Republic), accurately reflecting its wartime markings. It requires the original freeware package (AR96C2.ZIP) to work in Microsoft Flight Simulator X. The talented creator behind this specialized paint scheme is Jindrich Barta, who meticulously captured essential details, making this a compelling addition to any virtual hangar.
Detailed Look at the Arado Ar-96b Aircraft
The Arado Ar-96b was once a primary advanced trainer for Luftwaffe pilots, featuring a single-engine design that provided ideal handling for newcomers. Its compact airframe was robust enough to support varied training maneuvers, and it introduced fledgling aviators to operational procedures before transition to larger combat types. During World War II, many pilots gained proficiency through its manageable cockpit layout and reliable flight characteristics.
