Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-15UTI (NATO reporting name: "Midget") is a two-seat, dual-control jet trainer of MiG-15 developed by Mikoyan-Gurevich OKB.
MiG-15UTI had its roots in the flight training system developed in the Soviet Union in the 1930s, in which a two-seat variant of a combat aircraft is used as the lead-in trainer before conversion to the single-seat version.
MiG-15UTI Midget remained the sole Warsaw Pact advanced jet trainer well into the 1970’s, because Mikoyan-Gurevich never mass-produced the transition training versions of the later MiG-17 Fresco or MiG-19 Farmer.
MiG-15UTI had good flight characteristics, with the Klimov RD-45F engine; it produces up to 5,000 pounds of thrust, cause level speed at sea level reach to 1,050 km/h. .
Noticeable change from MiG-15 is tandem cabins with two pieces canopies. Some variants produced from MiG-15Bis fitted Klimov VK-1A engine with thrust increase to 5,900 pounds for better at performing maneuvers. But new engine has more fuel combustion rate, and less internal fuel tank capacity to reduce flight endurance or range.
The other modifications include hydro booster ailerons control to help aircraft keep high roll rate when maneuver, it also has modified avionics for communication and navigation similar as MiG-17 and MiG-19.
MiG-15UTI had been operated by military aviation users in most Communist satellite nations, when it finally retired during 1990s, some aircraft sold to civil aviation owners as a new role become part of the international 'War bird' scene.
Now BearStudios takes this flight legend aircraft into MSFS world.

The C24R Sierra is a single-engine light airplane with retractable landing gear developed and manufactured by American aircraft producer Beechcraft. The low-wing model can seat up to six, including pilot. It was developed to be trainer and a reliable personal cruiser with improved performance over previous models in its lineage.
The C24R Sierra is one of several members of Beechcraft’s Musketeer family. The lineage was born in 1963 with the introduction of the Model 23 Musketeer. The Model 23 was Beech’s initiative to produce an entry-level airplane for personal use as well as for a wide spectrum of training purposes. Several members of the Musketeer line debuted in the following years, including the Super Musketeer and the Sundowner. The C model of the 24R Sierra was certified for operation in 1976.
The Musketeer C24R Sierra is a comfortable cross-country aircraft due to its wide cabin, pilot side door, and extended large rear / cargo door. It features retractable tricycle landing gear (which folds away from the fuselage), a powerful 200-horsepower engine, and constant speed propeller. It is an excellent platform for Complex Endorsement training. One of the attributes pilots of the aircraft frequently note is its great cockpit visibility. This is due to the location of the wing aft of the aircraft’s front seats and a nose-down level flight, granting exceptional field of view.
The Beechcraft Musketeer C24R Sierra measures 25 feet, 9 inches in length, stands 8 feet, 3 inches tall, and has a wingspan of 32 feet, 10 inches. It is powered by a Lycoming IO-360-A1B6 4-cylinder engine that generates up to 200 horsepower. The engine drives a 3-blade, constant-speed propeller that was given a supplemental type certificate for the aircraft.
C24R Sierra has a range of 745 miles, a service ceiling of 15,385 feet above sea level, and it climbs at 927 feet per minute. It cruises at 166 miles per hour and has a do-not-exceed speed of 193 mph. Flight planning allows a higher speed cruise of 135-140 KTAS with 75% power, an economy setting of 125 KTAS with 65% power, or an endurance setting of 115 KTAS with 55% power.
Simulation Information
Welcome to Flysimware’s Sierra C24R Native for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024.
Flysimware and 3DReach have modeled this vintage aircraft with an emphasis on realism and attention to detail. With help from an aircraft owner, we obtained laser scans, detailed reference photographs, and technical documentation to create an accurate replica with realistic aircraft systems and flight dynamics.
The Sierra C24R has been rebuilt for the native Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 environment, taking advantage of the simulator’s latest aircraft systems, visual effects, and interactive features.
The aircraft includes nine separate panel and avionics variants across three panel types, including updated GNS 530/430 V2 and G3X V2 avionics. STEAM panel configurations also support switching between traditional analog and CGR digital engine gauges directly from the Flysimware EFB.
Flysimware’s TrueSim HSI and ADI gyro system provides custom instrument behavior, while an enhanced dynamic climate control system and optional panel-mounted fuel tank timer with cabin temperature display add further depth to aircraft operation.
The Flysimware tablet is now fully integrated into the default MSFS 2024 EFB in both 2D and 3D. Its expanded features include customizable aircraft key bindings, TrueSim dynamic dirt controls, and complete synchronization of passengers, luggage, and fuel with the simulator’s default payload system.
Native MSFS 2024 pre-flight and walk-around functionality allows pilots to inspect and interact with wheel chocks, tie-downs, covers, engine plugs, and other exterior equipment before flight.
The aircraft features TrueSim dynamic dirt accumulation, windshield and exterior body rain effects, icing, and additional environmental effects. CFD airflow and propeller wash simulation also enhance aircraft behavior and interaction with the surrounding environment.
Whether flying short trips, long cross-country routes, practicing instrument procedures, or enjoying traditional general aviation, the Sierra C24R delivers a detailed and versatile flying experience in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024.

==========================
VFlyteair have been producing aircraft for X-Plane for many years. We have strived to ensure a high standard of flight model, always produced with rigorous testing by our team of real-world pilot/owners, plus a variety of features including avionics options to suit different users. Time and again we have been pleased to receive positive feedback from customers who appreciate the attention to detail and accuracy of our products.
In more recent times, as the company has evolved, and in response to customer wishes, we have started looking at bringing our fleet to the Microsoft Flight Simulator platform.
As a result, we are proud to announce the release of our first product for MSFS - The PA30 Twin Comanche. After more than a year of work, we have completely redeveloped the Twin Comanche, taking the existing 3D model and producing new textures and modelling to suit the high-fidelity lighting and graphic options possible with MSFS. The cabin and panel have likewise been reworked.
This is an analogue panel version of the Twin Comanche, which includes support for the TDSSim GTN750 (separate purchase required). We will be looking to bring the glass panel options present in our XP12 Twin Comanche as a future upgrade. The instrument panel reflects the original 1960’s setup with the Century IIB autopilot. For those used to more modern systems, it’s a challenge, but a good one!
We are especially grateful to Frank Brunot, our new team member, a pilot with years of experience and owner of a Twin Comanche, who has provided a massive amount of time and input to help us refine the flight model - no small task with a completely new development platform! Thanks also to Igor Kirilove who continues to produce incredible work from his home in Kyiv, sometimes running off car batteries to continue working through power outages.
The Twin Comanche was first produced in 1961. It is a twin-engine four or six-seater successor to the Piper Apache. Featuring tip tanks, retractable gear and the safety of two engines, plus a cruise speed of 165kts at a very reasonable fuel burn, and a cruise ceiling of 18,000ft, the Twin Comanche has been a popular cross country option for many years.
As mentioned, our phase 2, now we have our first product to the release stage, will be to work on bringing the high-quality glass cockpit options in our X-Plane models to MSFS. We are also actively discussing which will be our next model to bring over to this exciting new platform.
The vFlyteAir Piper PA-30 Twin Comanche is equipped with a general aviation panel, featuring all common instruments, switches and avionics typical for a real PA-30
We also include a variant of the aircraft featuring out-of-the-box support for the the Garmin GTN simulation GTNxi Pro by TDS Software. In this variant, the default GNS530, the radio, and the transponder are replaced by a GTN750 (top) and a GTN650 (bottom). Make sure to select the TDS variant of the aircraft in Microsoft Flight Simulator if you want to use the GTNxi. The TDS GTNxi Pro is sold separately by TDS Software, refer to tdssim. com/tdsgtnxi for details.
The majority of the modelling and programming was done by long-time vFlyteAir developer Igor Kyrylov. He has not only X-Plane experience, like the rest of us, but is also familiar with the Microsoft Flight Simulator platform for many years. Therefore, Igor was in charge of leading the vFlyteAir Twin Comanche project for MSFS 2020. Igor, his wife and his little son live in Kyiv, Ukraine. Igor’s country and home town are under massive attack by Russian forces since early 2022, when work on the vFlyteAir PA-30 for MSFS started. Under very hard conditions, with constant power outages and the imminent danger of falling victim to the attackers who constantly attack civilian buildings, Igor finished this model nearly all by himself. Team and beta testers provided valuable feedback on the real aircraft (special thanks to Frank Brunot in this regard), on bugs, or wrote this user manual, but in the end, the Twinkie is more than anything else Igor’s plane. While during daytime Igor supports his country’s defence efforts by various activities, in the evening and during nights, Igor never stopped to finish this project, often under very hard and, up to 2022, unimaginable conditions, for example relying on modified car batteries to power his development computer. It is not an overstatement when we say that this project helped Igor and his family to stay focused or, as Igor would say, to “keep going”, and to not forget that there was a life before the war, and that there will be a life after the war again. Flight simulation can bring us the joy of freedom to our homes. From the comfort of our chairs we can travel to other countries and, like a bird, enjoy the views from above. This works especially well using Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020’s very realistic graphics. When you fly the beautiful and reliable Twin Comanche in MSFS 2020, consider paying Ukraine a virtual visit, to remind yourself that Ukraine is not some distant war zone from the evening news, but a close European country with real, living people. Kyiv’s Boryspil International Airport (ICAO code UKBB) is just a few hours away from the other European capitals. The Twinkie can carry you there.

Simulated electrical systems: For example, the generator power in the Steam gauge model depends on RPM. You can try this by switching off the battery master while the engine is running and then observe the ammeter change when you switch on or off various devices. In addition, many fuses (on the breaker panels) are working. Helpful instrumentation: The airspeed indicator (IAS, in mph and knots) is adjustable for altitude and outside air temperature, resulting in additional display of true airspeed (TAS). The radar altimeter with adjustable minimum altitude provides assistance when flying near the ground. If you have installed the TDS GTNxi Pro (sold separately), we offer a panel variant using the Garmin GTN750 and GTN650 (instead of the default radio stack which consists of Garmin GNS530 GPS, Bendix/King KX 155 radios, and Garmin GTX330 transponder). Century IIB autopilot: The classic Century IIB autopilot includes helpful roll and heading modes to ease your piloting work. Detailed cockpit and panel lights: Pilot and co-pilot floods lights illuminate the cabin, while adjustable instrument and panel lights always provide perfect visibility in all weather conditions and times of day. Visual effects: We modelled smoke during engine start, as well as ice building up on the cabin windows in icing conditions. Emergency gear lever: Mounted in the bottom of the cabin, behind a removable panel, an
