Hey Dillon, what's with that really funky GPS/Auto Pilot thing? Do people really fly SIDs in a GA aircraft anyway?Mark

You might check out the Frolov DHC 8, Dash 8. And to your other question, I've flown many STARSs in turboprops. Don't remember getting any SIDs tho, just direct clearances or vectors out of the area.db.

Do yo mean vectors out of the area for a sid. The sids that were involved in my experience i would get a clearance from delivery such as ex:"abc cleared to cccc via thuderbay 5 dep. etc etc" then when airborn and intila contact with departure i would not usually get to fly the sid but would rather get vectors or direct clearances also as in you situation even though i got a cleareance through delivery to fly a sid.p.s This topic has taken a crazy left turn :) lol Any other turboprpos out there.

Clearance Delivery would clear us "...direct xxxVOR direct xxx VOR as filed..." Or "... direct xxxVOR then heading xx intercept Victor xxx as filed..."db.

I hear the Majestic Dash-8 is excellent.There's always the Flight 1 ATRPMDG's Beech 1900's are simple aircraft, but fun. Their Jetstream looks amazing, but they only made it for FSX, so...meh.Those are what come to mind. I'm sure there are more!

I have both the Majestic DH3 (bought 2 months ago) and Flight1 ATR (Have it many years and fly it a lot).I have yet to complete a single flight in the DH3. It took a while to configure/tune the throttle axis but I can't get the flaps right.No matter what, they immediately go to 30 and stay there. I admit it could be caused by my system setup, but I don't want to spend any time in it anymore.Also the panel graphics are FS98'ish and I'm not kidding. System and sound wise it is superb.FMC data is only updated very infrequently by Majestic themselvesThe ATR72 is a very nice aircraft, very good graphics and frame rates, at laest on my PC.FMC data is updatable via Navigraph.It is a joy to fly with and you really can't go wrong with it.My 2 cents,Egbert

I also own the Flight1 ATR-72 a great add on I've had many hours of flying this around the UK easy to operate FMC and the panel is fantastic along with the virtual cockpit. Really friendly on the FPS as well!Just throwing another aircraft in for consideration there's a nice Saab 2000 around as well might want to give that a try. It's freeware but you would have to find or edit a decent panel which is unfortunate.
