Included in this category are civil heavy (mainly jet) passenger aircraft and planes add-ons compatible with X-Plane 11 (XP11) and the older files are compatible with X-Plane 10 (XP10). This section mainly covers larger passenger aircraft manufactured by the likes of Boeing, Airbus, and other smaller commercial manufacturers.

All of the add-ons here are easy to install and most (if not all) come with detailed installation instructions to get you up and running with the new aircraft mod you have downloaded. At the moment, freeware developers are focusing on repaints as opposed to full models. X-Plane 11 comes with many high-quality aircraft out of the box and developers have chosen to expand on these existing aircraft with paints (repaints) of their own.
Repaints are easy to install and they are built to work with the existing aircraft so you can be sure you'll have a full cockpit and even a 3D Virtual Cockpit (VC) working when installed. Slowly, new models and more niche designs are becoming available as developers work on them so be sure to visit this page often for the latest updates and releases.
All of the files here are free to download and use - you don't even need to register - simply click on 'Download' and begin.
We still add some X-Plane 10 files from time to time but by user demand, we now focus mainly on XP11.
X-Plane has always been the professionals choice for a flight simulation package. However, over the past few years - X-Plane has become more popular with the 'general' flight simulator user, the user that flies at home on his PC or Mac. The last few versions of X-Plane have been marketed towards general users and it is becoming increasingly popular within the flight simulation community.

With the increase in popularity, freeware developers have started creating add-ons such as aircraft and scenery packages for X-Plane. X-Plane is said to be more realistic in terms of flight dynamics than any of the Microsoft Flight Simulator packages, mainly because of the way X-Plane gives flight to aircraft models.
In Microsoft Flight Simulator, aircraft models are all similar with a simple configuration file to provide simple flight dynamics, while in X-Plane, aircraft shapes, sizes and weights are taken into consideration in the simulation - giving more realistic flight.
While there are not as many add-on packages and downloads for X-Plane as there is for the Microsoft Flight simulators, this is a growing section and it's becoming increasingly popular.
Featured in this section are many aircraft, vehicles, helicopters and scenery expansions for X-Plane, all available for download with your Fly Away Simulation account. Why not try X-Plane today? You can get your hands on the free demo here.
