OVERVIEW
Now upgraded for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024! Powered by a 1200hp engine and a 4 or 5-bladed propeller, the PC-12 can easily operate out of short, unprepared strips as well as paved runways, while Its superb engineering ensures a smooth flight even in adverse weather conditions. Versatile by design, the PC-12 can be configured for use an executive transport, commuter, cargo carrier or even air ambulance. Developed with the help of Pilatus Aircraft and Fly7 Executive Aviation, the SWS PC-12 Legacy aspires to be our best and most varied turboprop rendition in Microsoft Flight Simulator to date!

VISUALS
The SWS PC-12 utilises the best techniques available in Microsoft Flight Simulator, delivering exceptional detail while retaining good performance.

High quality model of the aircraft’s exterior with many custom animations:
- 4 and 5-bladed propeller.
- Trailing link landing gear.
- Nose wheel steering with free castering.
- Engine bypass flap and springs (connecting to landing gear).
- Custom flap and actuator animations.
- Trim tabs.
- Animated de-icing boots.
- FS2024-native propeller animation with prop beta/reverse.
- Horizontal stabilator trim.
- Propeller vortices.
- Preflight covers: engine, chocks, pitot tube, angle of attack vanes, static ports, windshield
- Preflight inspection: engine cowling, fuel filter compartment, tail compartment.
High quality cockpit interior modelling using detail textures to retain detail while reducing texture size. Numerous custom animations, including:
- Stick shaker and pusher.
- Sun visors.
- Sun shade.
- Gust lock.
- Armrests.
- Movable lights and AC vents.
Three different cabin configurations with -again- many custom animations:
- Exits.
- Window shades.
- Tray tables (executive cabin).
- Snacks and drinks that can be placed on the tables (executive cabin)
- Seat armrests and tilting.
- Toilet door, light, flushing (executive cabin).
- Drawers -gravity affected (executive cabin).
- Celebratory items: on special dates, the aircraft will be decorated internally and externally.

FLIGHT MODEL
The SWS team were flown in the PC-12 and then spent a week training in the PC-12 simulator at the Fly7 Training Center, in Lausanne, Switzerland. Being ableto experience first-hand how the real aircraft handles, we strived to recreate it as closely as MSFS allows and verified with real PC-12 pilots that tested the aircraft. The flight model uses the new FS2024-native CFD simulation and some highlights include:

Engine torque effect on yaw.
Correct handling response.
Exceptional stability in inclement weather.
Realistic flap deployment timings, lift and drag effects, including crosswind limitations.
Nose down approach attitude, correctly reproduced down to flaps 30 (MSFS limitation at 40).
Custom nose wheel steering with free-castering operation when differential brakes are used.
Custom fuel control simulation allowing correct response across all altitudes, idle dwell and reverse
Manual override control.
Correct propeller beta and reverse operation.
Custom ITT simulation including altitude limiting.

AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS & AVIONICS
Many custom systems were created to ensure an authentic experience, while also featuring the first fully custom avionics created by our team. Some of the custom systems modelled:

EFIS50 including map and weather modes
Engine Instrument System
Thommen DC20 Chronometer
Aileron-rudder interconnect
Custom yaw damper
Stick shaker & pusher
Environmental Control System
Cabin Pressure Control System
Compatibility with PMS50 and TDS GTN (requires v1.3.1.6 or later)
Full interior and exterior lighting

SOUNDS
The SWS PC-12 comes with a rich soundset, containing more than 2800 authentic sounds recorded from multiple real aircraft! The sounds feature:

Different sounds for 4 and 5-bladed propellers
Authentic engine sounds
Gear & flap actuators
Aural warnings and avionic sounds
Audible switches, levers, doors, windows - if it moves, it can be heard!
Many ambient sounds

MANUAL
PDF manual and checklist is included with the aircraft and can also be viewed from the in-game tablet.
