Out now for FSX and FS9 - the C-17A Globemaster III ! Demand for this awesome model was so strong that we decided we should not make our customers wait any longer, so we are releasing the finished exterior model package right now. Version 1.0 does not however have a v-c yet, the cockpit is still under development. It is however in a very advanced state, and we already have the gauges and HUD ready to go. So 1-2 months should be enough to see the release of version 1.1, which will not only include the v-c and gauges, but also some additional texture schemes (Qatar AF, NATO and USAF Hickam Bay). The v1.1 update will of course be free of charge to existing owners.

Included in the version 1.0 package is the 100% complete exterior model, along with EIGHT incredibly-detailed textures sets by master artist Pierre Lheureux (listed below) and a fantastic C-17 sounds set by sounds experts TSS. Both FS2004 and FSX are supported with unique models - the FSX one excels with super-sharp 2048-pixel resolution textures, self-shadowing and very subtle bump mapping. Both sims also share many animations : alongside the usual fowler flaps, spoilerons and reverse thrusters, there are anims for the front exit and steps, paratroop doors, rear cargo to level AND optional ground position, togglable pilots and togglable formation ('slime') lights. The rear cargo hold also has night-lighting. A PhotoShop paintkit is being put together and will be uploaded in due course.

Here's a list of the amazing texture sets :

March AFRC - 55140
McChord AMC - 10186
McGuire AMC - 44130
Mississippi ANG - 33113
Royal Australian Air Force - A41-207
Royal Air Force - ZZ171
Royal Canadian Air Force - 177701
Bare 'Primer', the pre-delivery scheme - 00172

The AlphaSim C-17 has been a long time coming for sure, and it's still not all here yet, but it is nevertheless the result of a massive work effort by many dedicated parties, beyond what we have have been used to with previous releases. Development costs were unusually high, and this has to be reflected in a higher than usual price point than our customers are used to. We are confident however that the enjoyment of this high quality model will long outlast any concerns over the initial outlay. We are of course committed to long-term maintenance of the package beyond the addition of the v-c and gauges in v1.1, further additions and updates will appear as time goes on, to ensure that the AlphaSim C-17 continues to evolve to meet our customers' requirements into the foreseeable future.
