I found this on AVSIM.  It's from the same genius who brought us the Learfan, the Fairchild 24R, and the Moni Motorgliders:  William Ortis!

I present: The Dauntless!!





You want a VC?  You got it!  It has a Virtual Cabin too for that matter!



You want a shallow pitch for takeoff...



...but that tailfin under the belly is not just for show!  It's meant to protect against tailstrikes!



Not only does it have 2 different liveries, it also has 2 different models with regards to the tail prop!



And the cabin matches the liveries (that PC Pilot shows beats the usual reading material you find on planes)!



You want night lighting?  You got it!





You can even dim the domelight by turning off the Landing Light!



What are you waiting for?!

That's a really weird plane, but I like it

I was kind of hoping to see an SBD... But nice shots anyway...

Wow looks nice!

Very Nice jordonj...very nice

Would really like to see a close up of the rear engine and prop on that one.
It almost looks like two counter rotating props.

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

Trucker; counter-rotating it is mon!

Hey Chomp, what do you mean by an SBD?  Post some shots of one hokay?

lol, the SBD dauntless from WWII? don't you remember that far back???

Is there one for FS9?

I just did a search for one...the only one I could find was some donationware for FS2000...

That's.... Interesting...

Nope haven't seen one anywhere lately unfortunately...

would be another lovely addition to the hangar.. :-)

Tis at Avsim.

He's talking about the WWII plane, not the subject of this post...Silent But Deadly Dauntless....

Silent But Deadly Dauntless....

No, not silent, far from it! It had a noisy 1,350-hp Wright R-1820-66 Cyclone radial! I've heard it referred to as "slow but deadly" but SBD really stood for "scout bomber Douglas".

Sorry...my mistake...

Sorry...my mistake...

No need to apologise, I'm a Dauntless fan . I can't help but try to advance your knowledge on the SBD
