The T-28B/C is an addon aircraft for Microsoft's Flight Simulator X with either Service Pack 2 or Acceleration.
The T-28 was initially created as a two seat trainer for the US Air Force with the first aircraft flying in 1949. The aircraft had a short production run with the last new T-28 delivered in 1958. The original A model had a miserly 800 horsepower, 7 cylinder radial engine and a two bladed prop. The Navy became interested in the aircraft and ordered 491 B models which had the considerably more powerful 1425 horsepower Wright Cyclone R-1820-86 9 cylinder engine. The C model followed a few years later and this was modified with a tail hook for carrier operation. A shorter prop was installed on the C to prevent prop strike. Some of the original A models were modified with a larger engine and became the D model. These D models saw combat in various regions around the world.
This package includes the T-28B model as well as the tailhook equipped T-28C model. Also available as a separate package is the T-28D model.

outstanding planes. only complaint is that the landing lights do NOT light up the ground at all and I have it set to do that in my FSX settings. otherwise just a truly remarkable collection.
I bought this plane from another site but I hope Simmarket accept this review because this masterpiece deserves more attention than it seems to be getting. A2A quality at half the price. See Paul Teixeira's informed and detailed review of the Trojan T28D version here on Simmarket...he says it much better than I could.
Like everything this developer has released, this is an outstanding product. It is incredibly immersive and takes you back to an era of thundering, shaking, rattling radial engine planes. It's fun to fly and because it was a trainer, it's quite forgiving, but it's still a challenge, especially if you take the time to learn the proper procedures. Everything about it is stunning and although it's no longer a new product, it's right up there with the best you can buy today. I love this airplane and you will too...
