A popular choice amongst the rich and famous, the Electra was Lockheed's first twin-engined, all-metal design, taking its maiden flight in 1934. A highly modified Model 10E was made famous by Amelia Earhart, who tragically disappeared during a round-the-world record attempt. Highly evocative of the 30s and 40s, the Electra appeared in many movies, carrying Humphrey Bogart to some distant Pacific island or battling valiantly after being pressed into military service during WWII. All this nostalgia is ready-built into this new Lockheed Electra Model 10A for Flight Simulator X and Prepar3D.
Special texture techniques have been employed to enhance the nostalgic theme of this aircraft, bringing to life the metal-skinning and riveted assemblies of this iconic airframe.
Thirteen authentic liveries, including the paint scheme featured in the classic film ‘Casablanca’, evoke the glamour and excitement of 1930s aviation and a Pro quality paintkit is available so you can add your own historic or fictional schemes.
The full-bodied sound pack really brings the Electra alive and the large super-detailed radials roar into life with vibrating exhausts and plenty of smoke!

Reviews
"The exterior modelling captures the distinctive beauty of this gorgeous aircraft... All elements of the cockpit are nicely detailed... The lighting and lighting effects, and sounds on the 'Electra' Model 10A are good and are representative of the real world aircraft... The ease of handling and the overall performance characteristics of the 'Electra' Model 10A make this classic aircraft a pleasure to fly."Mutley's Hangar
"Aeroplane Heaven, the developer, appears to have pulled out all the stops in what I personally consider to be its finest release to date... For those of us who enjoy these early airliners, they simply don't look any better than this!... A joy to fly and at a budget price too... A careful examination of the exterior reveals a very high degree of detail that is quite simply a joy to behold... The included sounds of the Pratt & Whitney Wasp engines are simply superb!... It looks great and flies equally well."PC Pilot (Classic Product award)
