Dash 8-300
With the success of the Dash 8-100 series, a stretched version with greater capacity was a logical development. De Havilland Canada (now part of Bombardier) launched full scale development of a 50 seat stretched version of its Dash 8 regional airliner during 1986, approximately two years after the standard fuselage length aircraft had entered service.

With the success of the Dash 8-100 series, a stretched version with greater capacity was a logical development. De Havilland Canada (now part of Bombardier) launched full scale development of a 50 seat stretched version of its Dash 8 regional airliner during 1986, approximately two years after the standard fuselage length aircraft had entered service. The first series 300 aircraft was in fact the prototype Dash 8 converted to the new length, and it flew for the first time in its new configuration on May 15 1987. Flight testing culminated in the awarding of Canadian certification in February 1989, with the first delivery to Time Air following late that same month. US certification was awarded in June 1989. The stretch comprises fuselage plugs forward and aft of the wing, increasing length by 3. 43m (11ft 3in). In addition, the wings are greater in span. The fuselage stretch increases typical seating capacity to 50 (at 81cm/32in pitch), or for up to 56 (at 74cm/29in pitch). Other changes compared with the Dash 8-100 were minor, but included a larger, repositioned galley, larger toilet, additional wardrobe, dual air conditioning packs, a new galley service door and optional APU. The Dash 8-300 has been offered in a number of variants. The standard 300 was followed in 1990 by the 300A which introduced optional higher gross weights, interior improvements (as on the Dash 8-100A), and standard PW123A engines (with PW123Bs optional). The 300B was introduced in 1992 and has 1865kW (2500shp) PW123Bs as standard, as is the optional high gross weight of the 300A. The 300E has 1775kW (2380shp) PW123Es rated to 40 degrees, thus improving hot and high performance. Like the Dash 8Q-200, all Dash 8-300s built since the second quarter of 1996 have been fitted with a computer controlled noise and vibration suppression system (or NVS) and so from then all models were designated Dash 8Q-300s. In 1998 the aircraft was again renamed, this time to Dash 8-Q300 when a new interior was also introduced. Virtualcol takes pride in presenting the third version of a package of three models of this series, the DASH 8-300. This model has analogue instruments with PFD and HSI digital and FMS (UNS) used in all subsequent versions.
WARNING: This model isn't a study-level model, but for the price, we are sure to offer a product that is as real as possible.

The Aerosoft A340-600 Pro, developed in cooperation with ToLiss, faithfully recreates one of the most iconic long-haul aircraft with exceptional attention to detail, advanced systems simulation and immersive flight dynamics. Designed for serious flight simulation enthusiasts, this long-range flagship delivers an authentic experience from the cockpit to the cabin.
All aircraft systems and flight/engine models developed by ToLiss.
A340-600Pro Features
Aircraft handling
- Custom flight model created specifically for this project allowing to accurately represent the aircraft flight physics. This allows better representation of the following effects than the MSFS default flight model:
- Effects of each individual control surface (2 aileron pairs that move individually, 6 independent spoiler surfaces)
- Accurate Lift/Drag modelling
- Effects of control surface failures (e. g. jam or free floating) on both aircraft dynamics and drag computations
- Custom coded aircraft flight control laws representing Normal law, Alternate 1, Alternate 2 and Direct Law, each providing different aircraft handling and protections as in real life.
Aircraft systems – general
- Detailed model of the aircraft hydro-mechanical and electrical systems, including system interdependencies
- 303 different system failures that can be ejected via our fault injection screen. Failures can trigger manually at a given time, altitude or speed as well as in a random fashion in a specific flight phase.
- Functional reset switches. All in cockpit reset switches are functional and can be used to reset the appropriate fault types.
- Hoppie CPDLC is supported, including PDC and WX data download via the Hoppie network
- ACARS functions: Simbrief flight plan import directly into the FMGS, including TO performance computations via MCDU uplink request
- Aircraft displays: Detailed custom display system with accurate representation of the different displays and ECAM pages as well as display reconfiguration in case of failures
Aircraft systems – FMGS suite
- Three fully functional, fully independent MCDUs.
- Two completely independent Autopilots. AP1 controls the aircraft based on the data displayed on the captain PFD, AP2 control the aircraft based on the data displayed on the copilot PFD. Due to our detailed ADIRU model (see below), these are not exactly the same – same as in real life.
- Flight Management system features:
- Support for all A424 legs
- Airbus specific vertical navigation capability, including step climbs
- Active, Alternate and two level of temporary flight plans
- Route offset from current position
- Support for pilot defined holdings, computed holdings and database holding.
- Support for pilot items such as custom waypoints, custom navaids, custom runways via the MCDU Data B page. Real life limitations for the number of elements apply.
Aircraft systems – specific
- Detailed ADIRU model: Custom modelling of the 3 Air Data and Inertial reference Units (ADIRUs) including injection of measurement accuracy errors on pressure readings and attitude angles. This simulates small differences between pilot and copilot side as they occur in real life also due to sensor accuracy limitations. The output of this model feeds the FBW system and the autopilot system. Therefore, both systems respond to modelled errors in the ADIRUs.
- Custom engine model: The aircraft uses a fully custom engine model for the computation of all engine parameters such as N1, N2, N3, EGT, fuel flow, thrust etc. This allows achieving a high level of accuracy for the simulated engine thrust and therefore the aircraft performance.
- Bleed system model: The amount of bleed air consumed by Air conditioning packs, engine starters, anti-ice etc. feeds back into the engine model and affects fuel flow, EGT as well as maximum available thrust. The underlying model computes pressure losses throughout the bleed ducts and valves in order to correctly distribute the bleed air usage between the engines.
- Electrical system model: Electrical system with all real-life bus reconfigurations and load propagation between busses including emergency generator, battery only supply etc.
- Hydraulic system model: A detailed hydraulic system model computes the hydraulic flow through the control surface actuators, landing gear pistons, brake accumulators etc. in order to appropriately load the hydraulic pumps. If the flow exceeds the pumps capacity, e. g. because you are flying on the Ram Air Turbine at low speed, the pressure in the system will drop, affecting the motion of all consumers of that system.
- Flight control surface model: The flight control surface move in response to a detailed actuator model that simulates the electro-hydraulic control loop of real-life actuators, including motion of the Electro-Hydraulic Servo Valves, Mode Select Valves etc. This leads to a realistic simulation of the ability of the surface to deflect against the aerodynamic forces. In case of hydraulic or actuator failures, the surface will have limited ability to deflect and in case that all actuators are lost it will float in the “aerodynamic neutral” position, i. e. the position into which the airflow pushes the surface.
- Fuel system model: Complete model of the A340-600 fuel system with 8 different fuel tanks, engine cross feed, mid and aft fuel transfer systems, jettison, in cruise CG control etc.
- Brake temperature model: Brake temperature model considering heat transfer between brake pads and discs, temperature sensors and wheels giving the appropriate delays in temperature sensing
- Radio navigation: Custom radio navigation model with simulated LOC and GS antenna locations, custom satellite visibility model, automatic, manual and backup tuning
- Taxi camera based on the MSFS Map API to assist during turns while taxiing.
Useability
- Detailed EFB with two subsets of functions. Functions available via the tabs in the top row are functions that you can find in a similar fashion in real life EFBs. Functions available via the tabs in the bottom row are simulator-specific functions that are not available in a real aircraft. Functions similar to those in a real aircraft EFB are:
- Navigraph Map and charts integration
- Simbrief OFP display. This can display an OFP downloaded directly into the EFB as well as OFPs downloaded via the MCDU into both the active and the secondary flight plan
- Weight and Balance screen showing also the predicted evolution of the CG and weight throughout the flight in order to ensure that you meet the landing weight and balance limits
- Take-off and landing performance calculators
- Interactive checklist
- Situation saving and reinstating: Ability to save an aircraft state exactly in order to continue from that state again another time. Note that WX reinstatement is subject to MSFS limitations
- Autosave: this saves the current aircraft state in regular intervals in order to allow resuming the flight, should MSFS crash
- Aircraft state changes: Ability to switch between 4 predefined aircraft states without affecting the flight plan in the FMGS. (Except if you switch to “cold and dark”, which will reset the FMGS. )
- Quick engine starts: Ability to perform an instant engine or APU start as well as an ADIRU quick align.
- Ability to force alternate or direct law independent of system failures.
- Support for a complete freeze when the simulator is paused or an active freeze that allows, e. g. to program the MCDU while the aircraft motion is frozen.
- Choice between two different weight variants of the aircraft (Standard and High Gross Weight)
- Choice between imperial or metric units on the aircraft screens and associated EFB pages
- Adjustable wing flex intensity to adapt it to personal preferences.
- Ability to skip straight to the next waypoint of a cruise segment in order to shorten the time in cruise.
Visuals
- Highly detailed and accurate 3D model of the Airbus A340-600 Pro, faithfully recreated based on real-world references and technical documentation.
- Custom-built animations for a wide range of aircraft systems and external components, delivering a dynamic and immersive experience.

Kai Tak 1998 The Last Days Are Back
This scenery brings back the last days of Kai Tak. In these days more and more spectators crowded the famous parking house to witness the planes flying towards checker hill, at the landing light in Durham Road start banking into a tight turn, while just roaring over the cities rooftops. Approach by approach, in these days a spectacular air show was unfolding, and every captain rightfully could be proud like a display pilot flying tricky and difficult maneuvers in close proximity to the ground. <... This scenery brings back the last days of Kai Tak. In these days more and more spectators crowded the famous parking house to witness the planes flying towards checker hill, at the landing light in Durham Road start banking into a tight turn, while just roaring over the cities rooftops. Approach by approach, in these days a spectacular air show was unfolding, and every captain rightfully could be proud like a display pilot flying tricky and difficult maneuvers in close proximity to the ground.
The Hong Kong Kai Tak 1998 scenery is dedicated to the last days of Kai Tak. The scenery specifically shows many details, which were unique for that time. The following highlights are included:
-
Updated version 1. 4: SU8 supported and corrected Chinese texts at the parking deck and the Ads.
-
Updated version 1. 3: SU7 based road and roadlight exlusion - ziggy runway boundaries flattened - improved grass patches along the Kai Tak river.
-
Based on more user feedback -> Updated version 1. 2 released: Functional OLS (optical landing system) on the USS Abraham Lincoln in Victoria Harbour (limited visibility in VR), ship and runway lighting on the USS Abraham Lincoln, the radar tower at the end of South appron was added, runway markings corrected, scenery objects re-added, which were hidden due to SU5 changes, improved the East Apron asphalt coloring.
-
Based on user feedback -> Updated version 1. 1 released: added the eye-catching pedestrian bridge behind the parking house, consistently colored roads around the terminal, moved a couple of static ships to avoid collisions with Samscence’s ships, added user documentation.
- No AI cars on the apron, taxiways and runway! - This scenery has resolved the issue with cars appearing at the wrong places, so you don’t need to set the road traffic density to 0%.
- Terminal building - Highly detailed terminal building
- Final state of the airport - Colors of apron markings and lines matching the final state of the airport. The same applies to the buildings. Even the old East Apron layout (as it was prior the 1992 expansion) is still visible by slightly different colored asphalt. Finally, as the USS Abraham Lincoln arrived in Hong Kong on July 4, 1998, the displayed scenery matches the reality at one single day: July 5, 1998, the day before Kai Tak was closed.
- 3D airport shorelines – The airport shorelines are designed as 3D models for maximum realism.
- Four aircraft bridges - Totally four aircraft bridges carefully crafted as 3D models.
- Sloped bridge - The long bridge between South Apron and Taxiway B1 has a length of more than 250m and has modelled the shallow ramps from both sides meeting in the middle. Taxiing over it you need to apply power on the first half and then brakes on the second half!
- 3D Kai Tak River - The Kai Tak Nullah (River) flows in a 3D riverbed right through the middle of the airport. As in reality, 10 bridges in total are crossing the Kai Tak River.
- Hand drawn aerial image - As no aerial imagery in today standards exist from the airport, a hand drawn image is used as airport background with a resolution of more than 30kx30k-pixel.
- Animated spectators - Exactly 1852 spectators are modelled in this scenery. While flying the final turn towards the runway, the people are waving with their arms!
- Aircraft carrier - On July the fourth 1998, the USN NIMITZ class aircraft carrier CVN-72 USS Abraham Lincoln arrived in Hong Kong to celebrate Independence Day. So, the scenery contains a model of VCN-72 anchoring in Victoria Harbour. The details of the ship reflect the state of the late nineties. The carrier has a landable flight deck and an open hangar deck below, through which you can fly!
- Shark lingering in the water - In the nineties, frequently shark attacks were recorded in the waters around Hong Kong. So, if you carefully follow the shoreline of the Kai Tak airport you will find a shark lingering under the water surface.
- Watermasks - Subtle modelling of the shallow waters around the runway.
- Realistic taxiway lines - Custom painted lines for taxiway.
- Displaced DME - IGS 13 instrument approach with displaced DME to correctly indicate the runway threshold after the turn.
- Fun challenge - As a “not really realistic but fun”-challenge, you can e. g. take off with from the long bridge to the East, turn left by 270 degrees and fly under the bridge, then turn to the West towards the USS Abraham Lincoln, fly at 40ft altitude through the aft hangar opening from one side to the other side of the carrier’s hull and then turn to land on the carrier!
- Approach lights - Realistic approach lights placed on the roof of the social club at Durham Road. Approach lights with sequenced strobes show the path of the final turn.
- KCR East Rail-line - (Static) trains have been added on the noticeable KCR East Rail-line, which marks the begin of the final turn on IGS 13.
- SID’s and STAR’s - Fully scripted SID’s and STAR’s in compliance with the charts from https://xe. ivao. aero/pilot/vhhx/.
- Based on large image database - Thousands of Kai Tak images were reviewed as baseline for modelling. Many rare photographs showed details in sparsely documented parts of the airport.
- Performance optimized - Resource saving innovative tileable texture atlases. FPS friendly parallax windows.
- Animations - Animated clock for the famous Maurice Lacroix-advertisement and animated airport baggage tugs.

Black Square’s Caravan Professional brings you one of the most technically advanced aircraft simulations for Microsoft Flight Simulator, with 100+ possible failures, 12 hot-swappable radio configurations, Black Square’s turbine engine simulation with beta range implementation, and the most advanced cabin temperature simulation in MSFS.
Black Square’s tablet interface lets you configure all options, manage payload, control failures, and monitor engines, electrical schematics and environmental control systems, all from within the simulator. The failure system allows for persistent wear, MTBF and scheduled failures for nearly every component in the aircraft. The 3D gauges are affected by physics and can even become stuck without engine vibration, requiring a tap on the glass to free them.
Radio navigation systems are available from several eras of the C208’s history. Fly without GPS via a Bendix KNS-80 RNAV system, or with the convenience of a Garmin GTN 750/650 (PMS50 or TDS). Other radio equipment includes KX-155 radios, KLN-90B, GNS 530/430, KAP 140 Autopilot and an RDR1150XL Weather Radar. A 145+ page manual provides instruction on all equipment, and 42 in-game checklists with control highlighting are included for normal and emergency procedures.
This product includes only the Caravan Amphibian and Cargomaster, with 675 shaft-horsepower PT6A-114A engines, and improved de-icing systems. The Passenger edition with/without cargopod is sold separately, or available to buy as part of a discounted Caravan Professional Bundle.
ANALOG CARAVAN OWNERS: While the panel of the Caravan Professional might look familiar, almost all other aspects of the aircraft have been rebuilt with Black Square’s current technology and high standards of quality. The major additions include custom exterior models, custom sound package from Boris Audio Works, higher quality materials with modifications for each model of aircraft, fine-tuned performance tables, tablet visualisers with all the systems required to drive them, more avionics options, and the turbine engine simulation that debuted with the Turbine Duke. This expansion of the Analog Caravan represents 1,000+ hours of dedication and roughly a doubling of the aircraft’s code complexity. Once you experience Black Square’s latest technology in your favorite C208, the difference will be clear!
Primarily analogue instrumentation augmented with modern avionics is still the most common aircraft panel configuration in the world. Challenge your piloting skills by flying IFR to minimums with a fully analogue panel and no GPS. You’ll be amazed at the level of skill and proficiency you can achieve to conquer such adversity, and how it will translate to all your other flying.
For more information on the aircraft's capabilities and a list of all included avionics and equipment, see the Detailed Description below and the extensive PDF Operating Manual (printer-friendly version).
For an illustrated guide to all major improvements since the Analog Caravan’s original release, see this Summary PDF.

SOUNDS
Black Square’s Caravan Professional features a custom sound set, created by Boris Audio Works and recorded from the real aircraft. High quality engine and cockpit sounds will immerse you in the simulation. Sounds such as engine starting are not mere recordings, but are instead many layered sounds, constructed based on the underlying simulation.
FLIGHT DYNAMICS
The Caravan Professional features a flight model with performance to match the real-world aircraft, based on real Caravan pilot feedback and in-flight data. Engine and aerodynamic performance should be within 2% of POH values, though no two engines are ever the same. The flight model uses the most up-to-date features available in MSFS 2020 & 2024, such as the new voxel CFD aerodynamics, CFD propeller, adverse yaw and stall parameters, and flexible tyre physics. Engine damage produces a rough-running engine and decreased performance.
PAINT SCHEMES
The Black Square Caravan Professional comes with twelve paint schemes across all variants and also with five interior upholstery packages. This product makes use of Black Square’s highly customisable dynamic tail number system, which can be configured by livery makers. See the 'Custom Dynamic Tail Numbers' section of the Operating Manual for more information.

Warsaw-Radom Airport (officially Port Lotniczy Warszawa-Radom im. Bohaterów Radomskiego Czerwca 1976 Roku) (IATA: RDO, ICAO: EPRA) is a modern joint civil-military international airport in central Poland serving Radom and the wider Masovian region. Located in the Sadków district approximately 3-4 km east of Radom’s city centre, the airport occupies a strategic position roughly 90-100 km south of Warsaw, positioning it as both a regional gateway and a potential aviation relief option for Poland’s capital region. The airport operates a single 2,500 m runway (07/25) and modern passenger infrastructure designed for scheduled and charter operations.
The airfield’s history reaches back to the late 1920s and is rooted in training rather than commercial transport. The site was developed as an aviation facility during the early years of Poland’s independence, quickly becoming an important centre for flight instruction. During the 1930s, Sadków expanded within Poland’s aviation education system, focusing on preparing military pilots with hangars, workshops and training infrastructure rather than passenger-oriented buildings.
During the Second World War, the airfield was attacked in 1939 and later taken over by the Luftwaffe, serving as a base supporting operations on the Eastern Front. As the front shifted westward, the airport suffered repeated damage and was heavily degraded during the final stages of German withdrawal. Polish forces returned in 1945, and the airfield was gradually restored, continuing for decades as a training base for the Polish Air Force through the Cold War period.
From the late 20th century onward, Sadków gained wider public recognition through aviation events, culminating in the Radom Air Show, one of the best-known air shows in Poland. At the same time, local ambitions to introduce civilian passenger operations intensified, leading to the first attempt at a civil airport in the 2010s. Despite certification and initial services, the early civil chapter proved economically fragile and ended with bankruptcy in 2018.
A decisive turning point followed with a state-led redevelopment. From 2019 the airport underwent comprehensive reconstruction, including a new passenger terminal and major airfield upgrades, and reopened to scheduled passenger traffic in April 2023.
Today, EPRA represents a hybrid facility combining military heritage, modern civilian infrastructure and a developing commercial role within Poland’s airport network.
