Ready to fly? Load up , select your ATR 72-600, file a flight plan from a short regional strip, and embrace the roar of the turboprop. Blue skies
Flying the ATR 72-600 in X-Plane 11 is not a "point-and-go" experience. It requires understanding the unique characteristics of turboprop operations, specifically managing the and Propeller RPM . 1. The Cockpit and Systems Simulation
The -600 series is distinguished from older ATR models by its "glass cockpit" and advanced avionics.
The PW127M engines provide a "boost function" for takeoff, giving a 5% increase in power when necessary. atr 72-600 x plane 11
Because the ATR is a regional aircraft, do not fly it from JFK to LAX. Here are the top 5 airports for the experience (download free scenery):
The MPC handles the aircraft systems management and alerts. In X-Plane, a properly simulated MPC ensures that system failures, electrical configurations, and hydraulic pressures react exactly like the real aircraft. Flight Management System (FMS)
Switch the Start selector to and monitor inter-turbine temperature (ITT) rise. Ready to fly
Which version you are flying (e.g., Aerosphere, community mod)? Whether you need a complete cold-and-dark checklist layout?
To get the best experience, consider pairing the aircraft with these enhancements:
It is powered by Pratt & Whitney PW127XT engines (or similar high-efficiency turboprops), providing a different performance profile than jet-powered aircraft. The PW127M engines provide a "boost function" for
Set Power Management back to to ensure instant go-around power if needed.
The ATR is designed for precision. Use the advanced avionics to fly accurate RNP approaches into smaller regional airports. Why Choose X-Plane 11 for the ATR 72-600?
