Golden Age Simulations Waco UPF-7

The UPF-7 was a continuation of the Waco 'F' series which had been introduced with Model INF of 1930, a three-seater powered with a 100 HP Kinner K-5 engine. The UPF-7 standardised on the 220 HP Continental W-670-6A, civil equivalent of Continental’s R-670 military engine. Its designation reflected the principal design characteristics of the aircraft – the letter 'U' identified the engine as the W-670, the 'P' identified the wing and fuselage design, the 'F' identified the model type or series.

Essentially a state-of-the-art refinement of the 1930 model, the UPF-7 retained its major features, particularly the heavily staggered wings with the strut-connected ailerons in the upper and lower panels. The earlier Fs were all built as three-seaters, with two passengers seated side by side in the front cockpit. The UPF-7 was intended to be a dual-control trainer, but when the stick was removed the front seat was wide enough to accommodate two passengers.

Golden Age Simulations' representation of this iconic aircraft is fully animated with tooltips active in the VC cockpit for all animated parts. It is fully compatible with all versions of FSX and P3D.
