First look at the new Famous Flyer - the Douglas C-47 Skytrain - in Microsoft Flight Simulator

Asobo have released a new "Famous Flyer" in Microsoft Flight Simulator - the Douglas C-47 Skytrain. In this first look I check out the troop-drop variant - you also get a standard cargo variant, and a glider towing variant with the WACO glider. p.s. apologies for calling the aircraft the "Dakota" during the video :)

If you would like a copy of the start-up procedure I have tailored for this aircraft, you can get it from here:
