DSD Simulations Freeware Avro Anson Released! (8/23)

[renniks]

Jan, check your PMs

Looks like srgalahad beat me to it. I have 2 versions of paintkit - psp and psd if you need them

Flew pretty well in 2024. Hunting about the cockpit for the prop controls? Were these by chance fixed pitch? Had a little glitch releasing the parking brake and made a keyboard binding for that.

Glad to see a great freeware following in the tradition of our own Milton Shupe.

getting to grips with the paintkit, still wip:

Yes, the Mk. 1 was fixed pitch.

Thanks! Interesting that these have a MP gauge rather than RPM? Nice aircraft!

Great repaints JanKees.. I really hope we see the Canadian-built versions being released too, and encourage DSD to move ahead on that.

I can always give the present model a Canadian look if you want?

"The aircraft is represented as RCAF 7401, which served throughout WWII with #18 SFTS at Vulcan, Alberta. The restoration undertaken by the volunteers of this Museum was assessed as “Likely the best quality and most authentic Mk.II in the world today”. " https://thehangarmuseum.ca/our-collections/avro-652-anson-mk-ii

JanKees,

It would appear that there were some yellow RCAF Mk1 Ansons.

See images Here and Here

There's also the aircraft I featured in post #37 in this thread. It shows a different pattern of yellow training highlights over camo than the one we already have.

Thanks

 

[vipgroup]

Here's a very informative blog I just found. Great info for re-painters of the Mk1 (and other variants should we get them).

On Sunday, July 20th, the Practically Geek Youtube channel will be having a live stream preview of the freeware Avro Anson being done by DSD Simulations for MSFS 2024 - which sounds like it will be released soon. As I'm sure others will recognize, these are conversions of the FSX FSAddon Ansons.

It's been updated with new comp files at the suggestion of @jankees and more functionality in the VC!
