Aerosoft releases Twin Otter X - Mission Pack

by mark.avey on April 11, 2008

Following on from their highly popular Twin Otter for Flight Simulator X, Aerosoft has now released a mission pack for the aircraft:

Fly ten challenging missions with the Aerosoft DHC-6 Twin Otter X. Some missions will not end as you expect them to do and it is good to be prepared to make an unscheduled stop in the vast Alaskan wilderness. Many hours of flying pleasure guaranteed.

The De Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter is one of the most versatile aircraft ever designed. Still Canada’s most successful commercial aircraft program with more than 800 built, the Twin Otter remains popular for its rugged construction and useful STOL performance.

The DHC-6 Twin Otter X has been one of our best selling products so Aerosoft decided to have a dedicated mission pack done for the users of this amazing aircraft. Combat Planes Inc created this mission pack and though the descriptions sound simple many of the missions will not end as you expect them to do. Many hours of flying pleasure (and some cursing) guaranteed!
