It looks like they introduce a new plane every other month or so. I was hoping by the end of September but it looks like it will not happen.http://www.carenado.com/ecommerce/incomings.php3Anyone have any ideas?Thanks

How bout the RealAir Duke? One of the best GA planes out. Or the F1 Mustang? Or the Eaglesoft Cirrus?Dukehttp://realairsimulations.com/list_box.php...e=duke09_buynowMustanghttp://www.flight1.com/products.asp?product=f1mustangCirrus G2/G3 Turbohttp://eaglesoftdg.com/CirrusSR22G2_G3T.htmI'm not sure when their PA32 will come out but their Seneca was the last one I will buy from them until they can get better flight dynamics figured out. Their models are nice and the VC's decent but their planes fly horribly imho

All great recommendations. I have all 3 and really enjoy the Mustang and the Duke. I have EagleSoft's Cirrus as well...just have not given it the time it deserves yet.I wa surprised to read all the comments regarding some dissapoinment about flight characteristics for the latest Carenado releases. I currently do not own a Carenado plane but I was under the impression that their flight handling was suppose to be quite good ..... Wonder why the change with their latest realeases? Sure hope the PA32 brings them back to their core of great representations of the real thing.

If you have some money burning a hole in your pocket then just get the a2a Cub with Accusim and you will never look at another Carenado again. http://www.a2asimulations.com/It may be slow but it will give you the truest sensation of flight of any addon - ever. Everything else you have will pale in comparison.

Absolutely. Carenado never hit the nail on the head with their flight dynamics and whether it's the hardware they build and test on, the aircraft they claim they fly as part of the development process - or simply they can't model flight dynamics for toffee - every one of their aircraft (superb from a visuals perspective) is spoiled by being sub-par on important bits. They provide only the simplest of systems modelling (ever had an engine go `bang` in a Carenado aircraft!?) and persistently re-use gauges and avionics that don't work according to their real-world counterparts but never get upgraded or fixed. These prettified releases are quickly patched to deal with any issues that have customers really jumping up and down, shortly thereafer abandoned to release something else half-finished. Formulaic, predicatable - and hardly customer-friendly.Payware in these credit-crunch times require features as well as good looking exteriors. Where are the chocks and tiedowns? Load managers? Visual feature selection like disappearing passengers? Alternative panels? Sophisticated avionics? Cause-and-effect systems? their competitors do these things as a matter of course.If they just stuck with something all the way through they could have my money. But they have their rut, and they're stuck in it.Meantime, just look at what A2A are providing in their follow-on upgrade for the Cub... there's more in that patch than Carenado have put in their entire fleet. Holy Cow! Just wish the Real Airs and A2A's would simply follow the Carenado lead on aircraft and just reinvent everything they produce - one thing that Carenado can do is make aircraft selections that obviously suit a lot of simmers. They could create their own take on 172, 182, Archer, Dakota, Seneca or Mooney with the features that Carenado always lack, and clean up! :(

Indeed, that would be a killer combination :(
