DCS Fw 190 D-9 Dora Flight Manual DCS [Fw 190 D-9] Dear User, Thank you for your purchase of DCS: Fw 190 D-9, a simulation of the legendary German World War II fighter, and the fourth installment in the Digital Combat Simulator (DCS) series of PC combat simulations. Like previous DCS titles, DCS: Fw 190 D-9 features a painstakingly reproduced model of the aircraft, including the external model and cockpit, as well as all of the mechanical systems and aerodynamic properties. Along the lines of our flagship P-51D Mustang title, DCS: Fw 190 D-9 places you behind the controls of a powerful, propeller-driven, piston-engine combat aircraft. Designed long before “fly-by- wire” technology was available to assist the pilot in flight control or smart bombs and beyond visual range missiles were developed to engage targets with precision from afar, the Dora is a personal and exhilarating challenge to master. Powerful and deadly, the aircraft nicknamed the Long-Nosed Dora provides an exhilarating combat experience to its drivers, and a worthy challenge to all fans of DCS: P-51D Mustang. As operators of one of the largest collections of restored World War II aircraft, we at The Fighter Collection and the development team at Eagle Dynamics were fortunate to be able to take advantage of our intimate knowledge of WWII aviation to ensure the DCS model is one of the most accurate virtual reproductions of this aircraft ever made. Combined with volumes of outside research and documentation, the field trips to the TFC hangar and countless consultations and tests by TFC pilots were invaluable in the creation of this simulation. The contents of this manual are based largely on actual vintage Fw 190 D-9 manuals of the aircraft’s service era. With homage to the brave pilots of World War II, we hope you enjoy taking this true Flying Legend to the skies and into the fight!
