SR-71-TB v3 Evo by VSKYLABS

Project Introduction:
This project is part of the VSKYLABS 'Test-Pilot' series, designed specifically for use with X-Plane 12 cutting edge Flight Model.

Special contribution:

During the air-refueling sequence in the simulation, an authentic SR-71 air-refueling radio recording is being initiated, adding immersion and excitement! The audio recording was implemented into the VSKYLABS 'Test-Pilot': SR-71-TB following Mr. BC Thomas approval. BC Thomas is the famous, high Time SR-71 Pilot who spent 1,217 hrs and 18 min in the cockpit of the legendary SR-71 (!!!). Other than being a legendary SR-71 pilot, BC is a kind, true Gentleman! a HUGE 'Thank you', BC! 🏆

Project main features:

• VSKYLABS 'Test-Pilot' Project - Utilizing X-Plane 12 cutting edge systems and flight dynamics models.
  Highly engineered SR-71A flight dynamics and propulsion systems (including spikes and bypasses simulation).
• Authentic SR-71A SAS/Autopilot (including all authentic modes of operation, KEAS bleed and with extended usability using on-board FMS as replacement of the SR-71 ANS).
• Authentic SR-71A performance and handling characteristics.
• Highly accurate climb and cruise profiles.
  
• Air-refueling (including tanker visualization and authentic radio recording of SR-71 during air-refueling session - courtesy of B.C. Thomas!).
  
• Deep systems simulation (including TAB injection and counters, automatic fuel scheduling, nitrogen pressurization of the fuel tanks, surf-limiter, stick shaker/pusher and much more!)
  
• D-21 Mach 3 Drone - A Launchable aerodynamic vehicle, affecting weight and balance, aircraft handling and performance characteristics, includes an authentic (slightly modified) operation and launch panel.
  
• AG-330 Starters simulation for authentic start-up procedure.
• Comprehensive FMOD sounds.
• Built-In Avitab compatibility.
  
• Designed for VR (optimized for 2-d).
• The project is under constant development - future updates are free to all existing customers.
