Atr 72-600 X Plane 11 May 2026
Custom-built six-bladed Hamilton Standard propellers with realistic feathering and "Hotel Mode" (the ATR's unique way of using the right engine as an APU while on the ground).
Deep integration with X-Plane’s blade element theory to simulate the specific handling characteristics of a high-wing turboprop in various weather conditions. Aircraft Specifications (Real World vs. Sim)
Integration of the Thales-made glass cockpit , which provides RNP 0.3 navigation accuracy and a multi-purpose computer (MPC) for increased safety. atr 72-600 x plane 11
In 2022, Dynamic Simulations announced a high-fidelity ATR 72-600 for X-Plane 11 with future compatibility for X-Plane 12. Their goal is to provide a study-level experience including custom systems and a high-fidelity 3D model.
High-fidelity FMOD sound sets that capture the distinct "whine" and low-frequency rumble of the Pratt & Whitney PW127XT engines. Sim) Integration of the Thales-made glass cockpit ,
For a long time, X-Plane 11 lacked a definitive "study-level" ATR 72-600. However, several projects have recently aimed to change that:
A modern ATR 72-600 add-on typically focuses on the "glass cockpit" evolution from the older -500 series. Expected features for high-end X-Plane 11 versions include: High-fidelity FMOD sound sets that capture the distinct
This is currently one of the most promising active projects. It is being developed for both X-Plane and Microsoft Flight Simulator, with the X-Plane version expected to feature highly advanced dynamics. As of late 2025, the project is in deep development with a target release in 2026 .
