Special Detailed Features and Animations

Interior Model
Like every other aspect of the Warbirdsim Mustang model, the interior is extremely accurate and detailed throughout, for each respective P-51B/C variant.
The N3C gun sight has been modelled in fine detail, including the backup ring and bead sight.
A new Feature for the FSX models is a Functioning Gun Camera, which saves footage to your default movies folder.
For the later variants, a highly detailed Malcolm hood has been faithfully reproduced all the way down to an authentic crank, rubber weather seals, runners and main plexiglass bulge.
The virtual cockpit is very highly detailed, as you look around you may be fooled that you are there in your own aeroplane with textures and fine detail being so accurate.
The placards are easily read to check you are not overstressing or going over Vne and each aircraft has its respective factory produced engraved plate on the starbord side of the cockpit.

Animations

Every switch and lever has been accurately reproduced and animated for by-the-manual use, from startup to shutdown. The aircraft has been designed to be flown exclusively through the use of the virtual cockpit.
All control surfaces move around their actual point of contact and are not simulated with textures.
All trim tabs are adjustable using the wheels on the port side of the cockpit. You will see the effect on the flying surfaces, on the views from the virtual cockpit and from the external views.

Exterior Model

Great care and an attention to detail have been paid to every aspect of the exterior model, achieving an incredible high level of accuracy throughout the various models and texture sets.
The exterior models are complimented by extremely accurate and detailed textures, down to the position of every last rivet, screw, and Dzus fastener, as well as accurate panel lines, factory stencils, and authentic markings.

The pilot has been thoroughly researched and is wearing the correct flying suit, helmet and goggles with all textures beautifully reproduced.
At 10,000 ft, the pilot's oxygen mask transitions into place, from its resting position alongside the pilot's helmet.


Highly detailed and accurate drop tanks and subsequent fuel lines have been modelled. These can be jettisoned through the same steps outlined in the P-51B/C manual, with working arming switches and release salvo, fully replicated.

The Merlin engine has realistic start up smoke and you can almost smell the glycol!
