The MD-81/82 evolved from the DC-9 airliner and is used on short to medium length routes. With its T-tail, rear-mounted jet engines and long slender fuselage, the MD81/82 is a distinctive aircraft which can be seen at many airports all over the globe.
The experts at Commercial Level Simulations have worked their magic to produce superb looking models of the aircraft for FSX in 15 authentic liveries.
Just Flight's F-Lite range of aircraft is designed to provide top quality aircraft that are extremely high in detail but less demanding to fly than today's most complex procedural simulators. These aircraft are a significant step up from the default Flight Simulator aircraft in terms of modelling and cockpit systems, but won't require weeks of study before you can get airborne - see the full F-Lite range here.
