Working MFD (Multi Function Display) as well as Analog Instrument Dials, Switches and a Monitor Screen.
Altitude HUD. The plane will either automatically rotate and climb or descend and level to the altitude you choose.
The SeaXwind seaplane can take off and land on the ground or on the water in either regular mode or wind mode. It can also taxi in and out of the water.
The SeaXwind has a new Automatic Landing system with a customizable notecard integrated into the HUD. You can either land at the 30+ airports listed in the HUD or add your own.
Once you choose your destination the plane will automatically descend to that airport. The system controls rate of descent and speed, you simply need to steer the plane left or right.
4 Automatic Take Off modes - Left / Straight long field & short field / Right
Built-in automated wind system.
Selectable wind direction HUD.
Independent rudder control for correcting yaw.
2 Flight modes - Normal mode & Cruise mode
2 Flap modes, normal and fast sink rate.
Articulated flaps and nose gear.
To operate the wind system type "ww" (without parenthesis) in chat and then toggle the wind direction by typing "w" repeatedly until you find the wind direction you want. The wind direction is also shown in chat.
The plane will now fly as though there's a wind force on it. The wind system is active and changes force depending on the plane's orientation to the selected wind direction. If the wind is coming towards the plane at a 45 degree angle there will be a moderate change in speed as well as a cross-wind/sideslipping effect. And if the wind is coming directly at the side of the plane there will be a maximum amount of cross-wind/sideslipping effect.
The force of the wind is also affected by the airplane's speed.

Awesome Customer Support
Best looking seaplane on the market Flies well when sims behave
One of the Best Planes if not the best
I love all of the characteristics of this plane especially trimming the rudder. With the lag problem in sl, this makes for a perfect landing every time. I also love the fact that it starts stalling at 50% throttle and Im touching down at 40% and gliding across the runway like in a real plane. Java thanked me for every purchase and asked if I had any questions.. I highly recommend this plane. I own all 3 and hope he makes more.
Very nice plane!
The only reason that it doesn't get 5 starts is that when you eject an unwanted passenger, the props stop spinning! Sim crossings can be a bit slow, but no trouble - it's a big plane, after all. Well worth the Lindens.
ONE OF THE BEST SL FLYERS
AMAZING,,,by far the best seaplane on sl I got loads of planes heli,s flying machines over 50 on my last count ,this is up there in my top 3 It,s well thought out for instance this climbs up ramps, beaches, even up onto islands without any problems the tail is set high an there, s no rear tail wheels to stick on ramp edges all my other seaplanes an float planes cant do what this does ,, its truly go anywhere plane , great for island hopping or long distance cruising,you have so many options for skill levels set (fm) flight mode to cruise or normal you get smooth turn or normal for tight fast turns and a for autolevel all makes for easy flying or 2 sims out from runway turn the Wind System on an set to a full side on wind travel sideways nose up into the wind for wind shear landing gives you jitters going sideways along runway LOL,,,,,,,
I bought this on a Sunday evening,, not the best time to be flying any plane on SL its so busy I expected to get dumped on sim crossings,,, nope not once I ended up flying around for 3 hours clocked up over 250 sim crossing,s, landing,s an takeoff,s at 10 airports without a hitch. I noticed for any plane over 60 prim the cam usually reverse,s going over sims an your looking at the front of the plane this has never done that ever its like sim crossings don't exist ,,at one airport a passenger got in after flying out an over a few sims the passenger was asking me why is he still in this plane he,s wearing over 150 scripts, an smoking a big fat cigar that was leaving a smoke trail half a sim long I thought I had an engine on fire ohhh geeeze,, only on sl you could nt make it up, I got rid of him at next airport told him to get out an put air in my tyres then I flew off,,, LOL ,, it sure is a fun plane you wont have any regrets buying this its a GIFT at that price
SeaXwind Glides through with ease...
I purchased this plane a month or two back and OWE this creator a review! This plane is simply one of my favorites as it's very easy to fly, land, and surf the waters when necessary! I'm not an experienced pilot but I know a good plane when I fly one! I have quite a few in my inventory, but this one gets flown most of the time. *big sigh!* The only drawback I don't like and it might simply be an sl issue...it flies with ease across sims HOWEVER by the time you reach your destination, your AO and/or part of your clothing disappears! >.< Overall, I love this plane even with that...
8 tear Veteran Sl pilot
To start the I own all 3 planes and each plane is a great sim crosser and easy to fly, that is if you do not try to fly it like a jet fighter. they are made to be flown like Rl smaller aircraft. the mod textures is a must anymore when i buy a aircraft. If I not see that I do not look any farther on it. on long flight I do love the auto leveler.
They all are just a fun plane to hop in and fly no 3 hour chat lag of the plane telling you what its doing to start.
Java has been more than happy to thank me for each purchase and is truly a buyer friendly person
when I teased him I thought the plane was not good but great his first reaction was to take it off market. before he read full IM
