davesimmons 6 Posted January 18, 2022 Report Share Posted January 18, 2022 (edited) The Douglas X-3 Stiletto was an experimental aircraft made in the 1950's to research speeds above Mach 2. Unfortunately the engine used was not good enough to power it to the required speed and the project was shelved after only a few test flights. This freeware version of the Stiletto has been produced for the X-Plane community by Dan Hopgood and has been fictionally equiped with engines of the correct power requirement to give us the aircraft that should have been. In this flight I takeoff from Edwards AFB for a test flight and take the plane to Mach 2. If you like this video and would like to see more, please subscribe to my channel: Simmo2Sim Please enjoy!

Doering 76 Posted January 22, 2022 Report Share Posted January 22, 2022 Beautiful presentation and well researched! I hear that there will be an improvement in the scenery for X-Plane 12. Link to post Share on other sites
davesimmons 6 Posted January 22, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2022 Thankyou for your comment Doering. Yes I await X-Plane 12 eagerly. Better general scenery graphics will certainly be less jarring and hopefully I won't have to rely so much on downloaded photoscenery. Link to post Share on other sites
