Announced: SimWorks Studios Dash 8-100/200/300

Title has it. I can think of worse devs to be taking on the stumpy 8s, and it leaves Majestic free to continue with the Q400 (if they’re still planning to release it, that is).

Wonder if they’ll do SystemPulse for these stumpy 8’s!

For those who are wondering…

Holy mother of sweet…

Day one purchase for me and I can call the virtucol purchase just a bad dream…

I have no idea about coding but that definitely looks visually 96% complete…

Sws please have this in your das8-100 livery folder

Yeah, that made my day. I love their Kodiak. Very talented guys and the Dash is in good hands!

Will of course be a day one purchase for me as a fan of SWS aircraft.

Would love SWS to include Ansett New Zealand liveries by default to recreate the routes they served one.

So stoked for this one! I hope it won’t cost a fortune… but knowing me I’ll probably buy it anyways. I’m a bit sad about Majestic, since I don’t think they’ll be able to complete theirs, but even if one day they do they’re clearly lacking the manpower it takes to support such a project post-release.

I wonder if the Dash-8 series will come with an FMS. I’m a bit worried they might just skimp on it with a basic GPS.

The Classic 8s will come with the UNS-1. The Series 100 will carry a single unit, with steam gauges. The 200 & 300 will wear two units with an EFIS.

Wow!! I guess I was worrying over nothing.

It was that or the KNS660 for the 100, Working Title helped us decide, although work had started.

Will the classic 100 come in that stunning Ansett NZ livery and the stunning teal and Blue air nz livery on the dash 300

May I ask… whats a very rough ball park date for them :grin::grin:

I hope all you retro lovers get the liveries you want; but for current ops, there are a few that MUST be included:

Air Canada
Air Creebec
Air Greenland
Air Inuit
Air New Zealand
Icelandair
Maroomba
Olympic
QantasLink
SATA Azores
Skippers Aviation
Wideroe

Good list and I definitely agree with you.

Qantas though, hasn’t operated anything below the 400 for a good two years now

Same with Air Canada Regional, I think. But the shorter types were such workhorses in Canada and Australia that both liveries should be included.

Canadian North Operated Dash till about 2022 retirement. There beautiful midnight sun polar bear Tail. She last operated on the Baffin run from CYFB.

-disregard

Hoping for SkyTrans liveries-perfect for YLHI!

Just as long as I can fly as Continental, US, delta, American, and Raven Alaska liveries on the right dash 8’s

I will get who ever focuses on putting their Dash 8 in career mode (that applies to who dose the Q400 as well, I would welcome multiple dash 8 q400’s :slight_smile: )

I am assuming it is the UNS-1 V2 from WT? Not the V0.1 in the 340?
