Is there only an payware model

If a "model" of the Dash 80 (yep that's it's name)

I hear Aerosoft's A-10 is very nice but I've heard it needs a really stout machine to run it.

AlphaSim's A-10 is now freeware. It's pretty nice and there are some AI flight plans out there that are very cool too.

I thought the 'Dash' series of aircraft were produced by DeHavilland?

Just tonight I flew a short hop in a DeHavilland Dash-80.

First time on VATSIM I might add  :D

Dash 80 was the boeing 707 prototype

Dash 8 is/was made be dehavilland

For the A-10 , a search reveals there are 2 in the 2004 Mil. library.

ALROT,

The Boeing 707 prototype was designed and built using the internal designation of Model 367-80.  That's where the "Dash 80" comes from.

The Historic Jetliners Group recently released a superb model of the Dash 80.  If I did this right, you can find it at  http://81.208.92.5/hjg/airlines/b/boeing.htm.

I don't remember for sure, but you may have to alias a 707 panel and sounds.  

Hope this helps you out.

Regards,
JerryH
