May 13, 201016 yr Just found a few minutes to fly around.It is old, it is ugly, it is dirty - I think I found a new friend. :( The VC cockpit exceeds the detail of the PMDG Jetstream IMO. It does not have any funny flying characteristicts. It takes off when expected and lands in an expected attitude (did not read the manual yet - just made up the speeds myself). It handles like a British design - flies like a brick. No twitchy elevator. All switches have a sound - very nice. You can even hear the nav instruments when they capture a frequency. I did not measure or compare the FPS, but there is no noticeable impact for me. At least better than the RealAir Duke. VC looks nice at night but not outstanding - some parts around the radios look funny. No US registration but plenty of German ones. Not good if you want to fly in PNW. But paintkit is included. Too much details result in more shimmering. Be prepared to apply some more AA settings. Alex Alex' Projects: Little Navmap
May 13, 201016 yr The VC cockpit exceeds the detail of the PMDG Jetstream IMO.Not even close. Sorry. The J41 VC is in a whole different league.That being said, the Islander is a very well-rounded package. I'm glad I picked it up, and I'd easily recommend it to anyone who likes the subject material. Tired of Streetlights everywhere? Try MSFS DarkStreets today!

May 14, 201016 yr $40! why $40? What separates this from something of Canrenado?Carenado mainly produce GA aircraft and only provide the default GPS, if you want something better like a GNS530 or 430 you need to buy them separately. The Bn-2 is a commercial AC and it comes with the Bendix King KLN 90A GPS unit. I haven't messed around with the KLN much yet but if it works as advertised I'd guess its value would be about $20? If Carenado added better avionics to their AC I would gladly accept a price increase, although adding RealityXP gauges to them is pretty straight forward. John

May 14, 201016 yr Sorry, maybe I'm spoiled because I read that.That was hilarious.
