Rui Cristina:
Hello  there, and thank you for downloading this great airliner, a Boeing 377 "Stratocruiser" .
- A 12 sided fuselage, moving parts, and that extra care for a real nice visual model,available now  for use with FS2K.
Dave McQueen has indeed achieved a graceful model, and I would like to thank him for having given me his  permission to try painting it. Thank
You,Mr. McQueen !!!!!!!!!

I only wish I had more time to keep the hobby going...../;o(



Dave McQueen:

This aircraft simulation is the latest upgrade to the Stratocruiser series that I have been making since 1996. It is intended for use with Microsoft's Flight Simulator 2000. It has full moving parts.
This aircraft simulation took many hundreds of hours of time at the keyboard to coordinate the present state of the project. This sim was made with Abacus' AF99 Aircraft Factory program and Konstantin Kushiskins' Aircraft Animator program. Activating the "O" key will turn on the strobe lights on the wing and fuselage.

A Custom made panel by Stephan Grille and modified for use with FS2000 by Dave McQueen is available from Dave and Rui's website at: Dave McQueen's Propliners

Instructions as to how to install the panel in your Stratocruiser folder are contained there as well, courtesy of Tom Gibson' Classic Airliners web site.

You can also find on our website a set of Stratocruiser sounds that was included courtesy of  Claudio Pedrazzini.
