Twenty-Four Adventum Tour: Hawaii Missions
You won't be flying multiple leg-to-leg routes with Adventum Tours. Our tour missions were created from the inspiration of real-life aircraft tour operators by having just one takeoff and one landing to complete each tour. The tours included are:
- Volcanoes National Park Tour (Big Island, Hawaii)
- Kohala Coast Tour (Big Island, Hawaii)
- Kona Coast Tour (Big Island, Hawaii)
- West Maui Tour (Maui, Hawaii)
- East Maui Tour (Maui, Hawaii)
- Kaho'oloe Island Tour (Maui, Hawaii)
- Pineapple Island Tour (Lanai, Hawaii)
- Molokai Island Tour (Molokai, Hawaii)
- West O'ahu Island Tour (O'ahu, Hawaii)
- East O'ahu Island Tour (O'ahu, Hawaii)
- Garden Island Tour (Kaua'i, Hawaii)
- Forbidden Island Tour (Ni'ihau, Hawaii)
Each mission is available in two different modes: Casual and Advanced Pilot.
Casual Pilot Start: These missions are designed for Microsoft Flight Simulator users who use a controller/gamepad. You will start at the end of the departure runway, with the engine running, so you can throttle up and go. After completing the tour, land the aircraft and shut down the engine to achieve each mission.
Advanced Pilot Start: These missions are designed for Microsoft Flight Simulator users who have access to keyboard and mouse, yoke or joystick with keyboard, or those who are savvy with a gamepad controller. You will start at the parking ramp with the aircraft in a "cold & dark" state. You will need to perform entire aircraft startup and shutdown procedures to complete each mission.
24 Tour Missions in Total (Includes 12 Tour Missions for each Mode)
Four Adventum Discovery Flights
The package includes four discovery flights that start you in the air over some genuinely epic scenery. These are:
Mauna Loa Volcano: You will pilot the Pilatus PC-6 above the largest active volcano in the world, Mauna Loa. Marvel at its sheer size at 13,678 feet above sea level.
Haleakala National Park: You will experience sunrise at one of Maui's most popular tourist spots in the Pilatus PC-6. As the sun rises over the volcanic crater of Haleakala, you will see the sun and shadows dance across the multiple cinder cones within the crater.
Pearl Harbor: A place of historical importance in U. S. history, Pearl Harbor is both beautiful and a place to remember for those lives lost during Pearl Harbor's attack by Imperial Japan in 1941. You will pilot low and slow with the FlightDesign CT to see all the harbor points of interest.
Waimea Canyon: Known as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific, you will pilot the Pitts Biplane around the beautiful multi-colored cliffs weaving in and out of the canyons.
60+ Additional Points of Interest: New POIs added with proper place names across the four different discovery flight areas.
Twenty Adventum Landing Challenges
Test your landing skills with over 15 aircraft across 20 airports. You will take control of everything from a Savage Cub to a Boeing F-18. The landing challenges start you on the downwind leg of a standard traffic pattern using live weather.
Additional Product Features
Adventum Tours: Hawaii 208B Grand Caravan Livery: A beautiful custom repaint livery in an Adventum Tours: Hawaii theme to use with some of the tours included in our package or when creating your Hawaiian area flights.
Detailed Nav Logs: The Nav Logs included on each flight have vivid screenshots for each navigation point to help you not get lost. The Nav Logs also include airport charts, when available, to help you navigate on the ground to the parking area after your flight.
Live Weather: All our tour and discovery flights and landing challenges use live weather. Live weather is used on each mission, so users have a different weather experience each time. Only one flight uses a preset, where you attempt trying to land a 747-8i in Hilo during a hurricane.
Airport Charts: A package of airport charts are available below for you to download and print or use along with your flights.
Product Demo - Features Four Activities and a demonstration of the custom speech included in the full product. Download here: Adventure Tours Hawaii Demo » Microsoft Flight Simulator

The AERMACCHI SF-260 is an Italian light aircraft which has been commonly marketed as a military trainer and aerobatics aircraft.
The SF-260 was designed by Italian aircraft designer Stelio Frati, while production work originally performed by Milan-based aviation manufacturer Aviamilano. On 15 July 1964, the first prototype performed its maiden flight (then designated F-260). Shortly thereafter, responsibility for production was transferred to SIAI Marchetti, who had purchased the rights to the design; manufacturing continued to be performed by this firm until the company was bought by Aermacchi in 1997. The SF. 260 has been largely sold to military customers as a trainer and light combat aircraft. In addition, there have been limited civil sales to private operators; during the late 1960s, the type was marketed in the United States under the name Waco Meteor. Armed military versions, sold as the SF. 260W Warrior, proved to be popular with smaller air forces, which could arm the type for use in the close air support role. Both piston-powered and turboprop-powered models have been developed.
SIM SKUNK WORKS SF-260 The model, even if it exists in the MSFS 2020 version, has been natively developed by SIM SKUNK WORKS for MSFS 2024 ® , initially on SF version, an upgrade which include the EA (Enhanced Aaircraft) version will be released at no cost for users within the foreseeable future.
MODEL Highly detailed model, fully animated Highly detailed 3D cockpit, fully animated and working Frame rate friendly in single and multiplayer
TEXTURES Highly detailed, high definition,PBR Some different liveries Paintkit available upon request
SYSTEMS Almost all real system have been modelled and working as the real thing Flight dynamics modelled close to real aircraft performances tables
OTHER FEATURES
The aircraft has been developed natively using the new features of 2024.
- It is possible to walk around the aircraft to carry out external pre-flight checks.
- The aircraft uses the MSFS 2024 wear and dirt system, it has been enhanced storing the wear and dirt status for each individual variant/livery, that it’s restored when you reload the aircraft .
- The flight model has been improved, in particular it has been greatly reduced, if not fixed, the behaviour a little nervous on the roll and yaw axis.
Model comes with real aircraft manuals (Italian and English) see /Docs folder
RELEASE NOTES Model can run flawlessly in PC Desktop.
The new LOD system is way too aggressive, which is why we decided to leave only LOD 0 on the external model. This requires the developer mode entry to be enabled: Debug->Debug LODs->Force user LOD 0, note that is already enabled by default, so no action should be requested by user. The dirt on the windshield from the insects does not work as well The function to prevent ice formation in the injector and/or ram air flow restriction is not working, is a known bug of the sim that will be fixed in the next sim update.
