The Piper Archer | The Piper Archer CX is a low wing, single engine semi-fictional civilian aircraft based off of the Piper Cherokee airframe. | ||
== Variants == | |||
The CX is a fictional variant of the Piper Archer TX/LX series; while both the Archer TX and LX have glass cockpits, the CX (C for conventional cockpit) uses old-style analog gauges similar to the ones used in the Piper Archer II/III aircraft. | |||
== Status == | |||
The exterior model is complete but needs to be textured; the interior is highly detailed, with most of the major instruments in place. The FDM is a tweaked Aeromatic FDM that feels like the PA28-161 in FlightGear, but it has not been tested with regards to the real life Piper Archer TX. | |||
There are no textures on most surfaces yet; I want to get feedback about modeling inaccuracies first. | |||
