Aeriane Swift'Light - PAS |
![]() |
File Description:
Aeriane Swift'Light PAS for FSX and FS2004 - The Swift’Light was originally a foot launchable sailplane, designed mainly to fly in thermal lift and at low speed. The engine kit is intended to give full autonomy to the Swift’Light, giving it the ability to taxi and take off without any help. The engine unit doesn’t turn the Swift’Light into an aircraft or an ultra light. The powered Swift’Light is more an ultralight sailplane with self launch capability. This model made with g-Max features full animations,a choice of two detailed VC cockpits (one with and one without the pilot),and custom built gauges.

Aeriane Swift'Light |

File Description:
Aeriane Swift'Light for FSX and FS2004. The SWIFT is a high performance foot-launched sailplane, designed to combine some of the convenience of hang gliders with the soaring performance of sailplanes. It takes off and lands like a hang glider, yet maintains exceptional performance at high speeds, achieving a lift-to-drag ratio of about 25:1. Although it is a fully-cantilevered rigid wing with aerodynamic controls and flaps, it weighs only about 100 lbs and is easily transported on the top of a car. This model made with g-Max features full animations,a choice of two detailed VC cockpits (one with and one without the pilot)and custom built gauges.

File Description:
Horten Ho IVa for FSX and FS9.
The Horten Ho IV was the fourth design conceived by the Horten brothers. The first Ho IV flew in May 1941 at the Konigsberg luftwaffe base. Of the four airframes completed two survived the war and were flown by RAF personnel in Germany and England until 1950 , In 1951 airframe #25 was shipped to the USA.The following year Rudolf Opitz won two major soaring contests with it, and placed seventh in the Nationals, after losing points through a navigational error.
That aircraft is on display at the Planes of Fame museum in Chino, California
A/F #26 is fully restored and on display at the Flugwerft Schleissheim Museum, Munich
These models depict the two surviving airframes.
Made with g-Max the models feature full animations, wing structure visible through the translucent fabric covering and a highly detailed VC with customised gauges,

File Description:
The Atos VR is the all out highest performer,of a series of rigid wing hang gliders manufactured by Aeronautic Innovation Ruhle (A-I-R). Built for the serious XC and/or competition pilot it is a 13.3:1 aspect ratio super ship with a 45ft wingspan that is as easy to foot launch as any flex wing, but with a performance that is in a different league.
This model made with g-Max has aircraft animations and an all singing and dancing pilot that runs during landing and take-off, transfers his position to prone and weight shifts to control the glider. The wing structure is visible through the translucent fabric covering , and the compound flight instrument is custom built. For FSX and FS2004

BrightStar Swift |
![]() |
File Description:
BrightStar Swift for FSX and FS2004...The SWIFT, for Swept Wing with Inboard Flap for Trim, was designed by a team at Stanford University led by Dr. Ilan Kroo, and developed through a collaborative effort with BrightStar Gliders as a high performance foot-launched sailplane, Although it is a fully-cantilevered rigid wing with aerodynamic controls and flaps, it weighs only about 100 lbs and is easily transported on the top of a car.
Almost doubling the performance of conventional hang gliders at the time it was introduced,it dominated several competitions and was subsequently allowed to compete only in a separate class. Many pilots have flown the SWIFT for 100-200 miles.
BrightStar originally manufactured SWIFTs in the U.S. but subsequently sold the licence to the Belgian company Aeriane
This model made with g-Max features full aircraft animations and a running pilot during landing and take-off,detailed VC cockpit and custom built gauges.
