Same kind of fun. Powered by one. Coming in XLS and NG flavours, the COWS DA40 Series builds on our effort to develop the most immersive training experience. Featuring the pinpoint-accurate flight model, complex systems, incredible auditory, and gorgeous visual model you'd expect from COWS, but packed in a nimble single-engine workhorse, the DA40 Series is meticulously tailored for students to practice critical procedures and manoeuvres.
The model builds upon our commitment to delivering a high-fidelity visual model. Every component is meticulously accounted for during the production of the 3D and texturing models through painstaking recreation using thousands of reference photos and scans of actual DA40s. Enhanced by the powerful rendering engine of Microsoft Flight Simulator, the plane exudes stunning beauty from every perspective.
