DC Designs are proud to announce Concorde for Microsoft Flight Simulator!
Fully native MSFS aircraft
Concorde has been coded with Microsoft Flight Simulator native 'Model Behaviors' animations and built to MSFS operational specifications to prevent issues with future simulator upgrades.
The DC Designs Concorde is fully compliant with MSFS native materials and make use of the new simulator's features such as rain effects and sounds, fully reflective glass, native aerodynamic sound structures, the new 'Modern' aerodynamics system with the ability to provoke 'departure spins'.
Concorde also contains custom animated effects such as low-pressure-vapour, reheat and engine smoke trails. Concorde is also fully compliant with Virtual Reality headsets.

DC Designs' Concorde is designed to provide a top-quality aircraft that is extremely detailed, yet less demanding to fly than today’s most complex procedural simulators. Equipped with all required avionics, and with custom-coded animations and systems, the DC Designs Concorde is designed to be accessible to all users without the need for intense study while also providing a challenge for those who like to fly complex airliners.
"A very flyable, enjoyable and immersive representation of Concorde... In my mind, DC Designs has struck just the right balance with this add-on. I was grateful that its complexity was just enough to require a different approach to flying and some degree of accurate pre-planning but it wasn't onerous enough to take away from the main pleasure of flying Concorde... The exterior modelling is excellent... It's fair to say that this version of the Concorde gives you the elementary details of what it feels like to be in control of such a beast in a straightforward and accessible way. In our mind it allows for a more immersive and enjoyable experience."
