Introduction

Welcome to A2A Simulations’ debut airplane for Microsoft Flight Simulator, the critically acclaimed Accu-Sim Comanche 250.

A2A Simulations CEO and founder Scott Gentile has owned and operated N6229P, the Comanche 250 on which this product is based, for over 10 years. A2A’s first simulation of 29P was released for Microsoft Flight Simulator X in 2015. Now, ground-breaking Accu-Sim 2.0 technology and the A2A teams’ passion for flight bring this beautiful 1950s airplane to life in Microsoft’s latest generation of flight simulator.

The Comanche 250 has been simulated with an unprecedented level of accuracy, detail, and functionality. However, it's the unique 'character' that Accu-Sim provides, along with a breathtakingly realistic external flight model and piston engine simulation which has led to a string of accolades from customers, reviewers and from the flight sim community in general. The Accu-Sim Comanche 250 is also proof that 'real' doesn't necessarily mean 'difficult'. We think you'll find that, above all, this airplane is just a lot of fun to fly!

Features

A brand new external aerodynamics engine built with Accu-Sim 2.0 ‘Merlin’ technology.

Remarkable performance accuracy based on operating A2A’s own Comanche 250, N6229P, over many years.

Unparalleled aircraft feel, handling characteristics and trim behaviour based on extensive flight testing.

A complete physics-based per-cylinder simulation of the Lycoming O-540-A internal combustion engine.

Dynamic ground physics featuring true weight on wheels simulation, tyre side-loading and response to different surface types.

Advanced turbulence system and subtle wing flex simulation which responds based on turbulence strength, ground bumps and fuel load.

Sophisticated airframe vibration physics with unique ground roll and engine vibration-based effects.

Authentic fuel system simulates fuel lines, primer, strainers and fuel contamination.

Custom oil system with dynamic viscosity and contaminants that degrade and change the color of the oil.

Advanced engine starter simulation that physically turns the engine through its compression cycle.

Physics-driven sound environment featuring well over a thousand dynamic sound effects.

Beautifully rendered external and internal modelling and texturing with subtle wear effects, dynamic aircraft registration decals and advanced animations.

Detailed JPI EDM 830 engine monitor with authentic displays and leaning procedures.

Custom-coded Narco avionics stack with NCS812 COM/NAV/DME unit, Mark12E COM/NAV, AT150 transponder, CP 136 audio panel and 841 ADF receiver.

Customisable integration of MSFS default/Working Title GNS 430W and 530W GPS units and support for PMS GTN 750 and TDS GTN 750Xi if installed.

Century NSD-360A HSI with custom needle-smoothing physics.

Advanced simulation of the S-TEC System 30 two axis autopilot.

Beautiful night lighting implementation featuring multi-purpose dimmable and directable Type C-4A cockpit light, dimmable emissive indicator lamps and white and red lighting options.

Pilot’s tablet for intuitive interaction with, and management of your airplane.

Interactive walkaround with many moving parts that can be grabbed, manipulated and inspected.

Customisable persistent airplane with failure and wear simulation which can be adjusted and deactivated if desired.

Graphical tablet engine analyzer provides a detailed insight into the piston engine operation.

Real time load manager with dynamic weight and balance indicator.
