Potez 540

Recommended Posts

Once you find one Potez, you start looking for others.

This mono-wing came after the biplane  Potez 25 & has an unusual set up for mounting the engines.

Its a pull through from FSX & lacks the exterior bling of 'PBR', but it flies nicely & the engines sound authentic.

The interior takes gauges from 3 other FSX aircraft & I have yet to get them all in the folder.

The test flight took place in France, so it's Orbx Europe scenery on display.

Interesting plane but you’re right, without PBR it looks, well, different.

Looks old FSX with matt non reflective exterior, which is its lineage. 

The engine sound is very  interesting.

It has 2 × Hispano-Suiza 12Xirs V-12 liquid-cooled piston engines, 515 kW (691 hp) each (left hand rotation)

They growl & remind me of another engine, (Supermarine Spitfire perhaps)

. I wonder where they got the sound files?

(To answer my own question: The Hispano-Suiza sound file is courtesy of "Law Dog" at the sim-outhouse forum.)
