RESOURCES


BOEING 747 SCA

In 1977 the NASA acquired a beautiful Boeing 747-100 and turned it into an SCA: Shuttle Carrier Aircraft. In 1990, they did it again with another 747-100. And that's it. That's all. That's how rare this aircraft is.

This freeware add-on (limited to PC users), based on Asobo and Working Title work for the base aircraft and the avionics, respectively, allows you to fly this heavy Queen of the Skies with her precious cargo and feel its weight from takeoff to landing. If you want, you also have a device in the cockpit to launch the Endeavour orbiter while flying under certain conditions.

Released on: 2022-09-23
Version: 2.0.2
