Val-U-Prop Virtual Airline enters the jet age with its new (25 year-old) DC-8-61 "Stretch Eight." This long-range beauty uses textures instead of bitmaps for fabulous FPS. Photographic panel taken by Leif Giesecke and sharply detailed wing view photos by Art Brett. Cabin photo by Stephanie Pleshinger. Panel uses all old-fashioned gauges, in keeping with the period: No auto-throttles; no AP pre-sets - in short, you actually have to -gasp!- FLY this bird. And it flies beautifully (keep the power up on short final!). File includes .mdl repair kit for win2000 and Xp, XP Pro users by Dave Parsons. From an original DC8-73 by Dee Waldron converted to a DC8-61 by Tony Madge and repainted by James Underwood. Gauges by James Underwood, Ernie Kennedy and Technic Direct. By James Underwood
