Version 3 is a major re-release for the Cherokee 140 Original! Here is a summary of the changes
and new features:
Completely Rebuilt for X-Plane 11.30
We rebuilt the Cherokee 140 using PlaneMaker 11.31 for better compatibility with X-Plane 11.3.
Modified airfoils, a finely tuned flight model and changes to cockpit manipulators make the
Cherokee 140 a much improved model!
Other improvements in version 3 are:
- Virtual Reality Optimized – ready for VR flight!
- New FMOD Sounds – all sounds are now FMOD to provide a more realistic environment
- New PBR Textures – interior NORMAL textures added for better realism
- Improved Animations – we are taking advantage of new X-Plane internal features to provide
- more realistic animations
