The Wings of Power 3: P47 Razorback and accu-Sim Expansion Pack Released
Farmington, CT – Feb 03, 2009

A2A Simulations is has released the long awaited Wings of POWER 3: P47 Razorback and Accu-Sim Expansion Pack for Microsoft Flight Simulator X. A2A customers have been patient for this release. A2A always strives to show as much detail for those interested in purchasing, and with this new release there are plenty of videos, high resolution screenshots, and also the full manuals available.

“Since Accu-Sim technology debuted with the release of the Boeing 377 Stratocruiser, Accu-Sim fever has spread across our customer base to epidemic proportions. We hope this big, beautiful, powerful P47 with the most immersive Accu-Sim technology yet helps to give those already bitten by the bug some well-deserved relief. Seriously, when we set out to create Accu-Sim last year for the Boeing 377 we expected only a handful of veteran pilots to embrace the new technology. We did however spend a lot of time making things intuitive and simple for any first time flyer because, in our heart, we wanted everyone to experience what it was really like to fly one of these old big piston-powered airplanes. This investment seems to be paying off since Accu-Sim has moved into the mainstream for our client base and our customers are vocal about their enjoyment of what Accu-Sim brings to these planes,” said Scott Gentile of A2A Simulations Inc.

Wings of POWER 3: P-47 Razorback FEATURES
· Big, powerful, fast and amazing high altitude performance.
· The famously rugged 2,300 horsepower Pratt & Whitney R-2800.Fly high and fast above the bad weather and cover the ground at over 400 mph.
· As with every A2A aircraft, it is gorgeously constructed, inside and out, down to the last rivet.
· Designed and built to be flown "By The Book."
· Custom Cockpit Systems and Gauges for the ultimate in realism taken far beyond what is available by default.
· Visual Real-Time Load Manager, with the ability to load external stores including fuel tanks, bombs, rockets with authentic drag and weight.
· Extensive re-working and streamlining of all coding. We now have a single code base for both SP2 and Acceleration, so both SP2 and Acceleration will yield 100% full features.
· Naturally animated pilot
· 3D Lights 'M' (built directly into the model) with under-wing landing light than can be turned on, deployed and retracted functional Recognition lights
· Pure3D Instrumentation now with natural physics.
· Gauges have real physics including startup, vibrations and airframe jolts.
· Natural 3D appearance with exceptional performance.
· Smooth movements.
· Sound engineered by our own A2A sound professionals
· Oil pressure system models oil viscosity (oil thickness)
· Authentically modeled hydraulic system
· In cockpit pilot's map for handy in-flight navigation
· Auto-Mixture that actually performs as intended. Now you can set for “auto-rich” or "auto-lean" and the aircraft fuel to air ratio will be automatically determined and set by the carburetor based upon various factors such as altitude.
· Three different models each with a different propeller. Early D20 variant has the smallest propeller while the D22 and D23 have larger Curtiss or Hamilton Standard types.
· Real supercharger and turbocharger modeled with accurate behavior
· Fuel delivery system simulated
· All models include A2A specialized materials with authentic metal
· Pilot's Notes pop-up 2D panel keeps important information easily available

P-47 Razorback Accu-Sim Expansion Pack FEATURES
· Complete piston combustion engine modeling. Air comes in, it mixes with fuel and ignites, parts move, heat up, and all work in harmony to produce the wonderful sound of a big radial engine. Now the gauges look beneath the skin of your aircraft and show you what Accu-Sim is all about.
· Airflow, density, and it's temperature not only affect the way your aircraft flies, but how the internal systems operate.
· Real-world conditions affect system conditions, including engine temperatures. Manage temperatures with engine cowl flaps and oil cooler flaps.
· Use intercooler flaps to cool Carburetor Air Temperatures (CAT) as high temperatures can adversely affect engine performance while low temperatures can lead to carburetor icing.
· Spark plugs can clog and eventually foul if the engine is allowed to idle too low for too long. Throttling up an engine with oil-soaked spark plugs can help clear them out and smoke will pour out of exhausts as oil is burned off.
· Overheating can cause scoring of cylinder head walls including ultimate failure if warnings are ignored and overly abused.
· Realistic water injection (ADI) system. Pushing the engine too hard without water injection automatically injects more fuel to keep cylinders cooler, creating realistic black smoke from unburned fuel.
· On hot summer days you will need to pay very close attention to your systems, possibly expediting your takeoff to avoid overheating due to radiant ground heat.
· Brand new A2A sound system allows for many new sounds including dynamic wind, turbo whine, engine sputters, etc. that will immerse you in flying unlike ever before. Experience a true “Open Cockpit” experience.
· Gauge physics including magnetic compass, gyros based on suction, and realistic vibrations from engine and airframe.
· Airframe and component drag. Dropping your gear will pull your aircraft realistically as the landing gear is deployed along with cooling flaps, Ordnance, and even opening the canopy. Drop your gear, deploy your flaps, or just try a dive and listen to your airframe. It's all there and it's all real.
· System failures including flaps that can independently jam or break based on the actual forces put upon them. If you deploy your flaps at too high of a speed, you could find yourself in a very dangerous situation.
· Landing gear can jam based on whether it is moving or locked down position.
· Total audible cockpit made with recordings from the actual aircraft. Before you fly, enjoy clicking everything.
· Primer system modeled. Accu-Sim monitors the amount of fuel injected and it's effectiveness to start the engine. Roughly 2-4 shots needed in hot weather and 4-8 in cold weather.
· Authentic battery. The battery capacity is based on temperature. The major draw comes from engine starting.
· Oil pressure system is affected by oil viscosity (oil thickness). Oil viscosity is affected by oil temp and oil dilution level. Now when you start the engine, you need to be careful and not raise RPM too much until oil temp is high enough to give proper oil pressure. If you raise RPM too high on a cold engine, especially very cold, oil pressure can raise to over 150psi. Oil pump failure can result. Also, extended inverted flight (negative g) can uncover the oil sump and reduce oil pressure. Do not fly in a negative g situation for more than 5 seconds.
· Oxygen starvation (hypoxia) is modeled. Just take off and climb without oxygen to see.
· Experience realistic startups with an authentic inertia starter. Wind it up and engage.
· Authentically recorded Pratt & Whitney R-2800 engine in a P-47. When possible, we visit and fly the actual aircraft, capturing every area that makes sounds, namely the engine and how it not only sounds inside and outside, but based on where you are outside. We also have sounds to indicate how your engine is performing. For example, it may cough if the cylinders start getting fouled, or you may hear components start knocking when pushed too hard. This all contributes to you, the pilot, from knowing your aircraft and how to read how it is functioning throughout every flight.
