February 12, 201214 yr After tinkering around with some of the heavies mainly Pmdg md-11 and 737ngx aswell as captain sim's 767 I'm looking to buy something I can hop around regional airports with, I'm not looking for a single seater Cessna or Piper, more a twin prop if possible or twin engine aircraft if possible. I've read that aersoft a re-designing the Dh-6 otter and until then I'd like something along the same sort of lines if anyone can reccommend one?Many Thanks Lewis Lewis Tandy FSX Crash test dummy!
February 12, 201214 yr If you are looking for something with decent STOL performance then I would suggest either the RealAir Turbine Duke or the Aerosoft Bronco - of the two I would say the Duke is the better aircraft, but as a scenery viewing platform the Bronco is not going to be beaten (as long as you don't care about an Autopilot) .. .. ..G Gary Davies aka "Gazzareth" Simming since 747 on the Acorn Electron
February 12, 201214 yr The Flight1 BN2 Islander is a great twin prop!

February 12, 201214 yr You really ought to give the Flight1 Cessna 182TC a hard look. Turbo-charged to increase performance and therefore speed, high wings to allow excellent sight seeing. Killer panel too. But if you really need a twin, the Duke is the only way to go IMHO. but no, repeat no, looking down for scenery. Oh wait, there's my BN2 Islander!! See the problem??

February 12, 201214 yr I would 2nd The RealAir Duke,Piston or Turbine,One of the best aircraft created for FSX.http://realairsimulations.com/home.php?page=home 100%75%50%d8a34be0e82d98b5a45ff4336cd0dddc Patrick
February 12, 201214 yr I've read that aersoft a re-designing the Dh-6 otter and until then I'd like something along the same sort of lines if anyone can reccommend one?Another vote fr the BN Islander, very simple but very good. Or if you want something more complex then maybe the J41 if you are already familiar with PMDG and know what to expect. 9950X3D - X870E Aorus Master- TUF 5090 OC - 64GB DDR5 - 1500W HXi - Titan 360 RX LCD - 9100 Pro x 2 - LG 45GX950A - HOTAS Warthog with Ava Base
February 12, 201214 yr The Real Air Turbine Duke has the advantage of being able to get in and out of the samllest of smallest fields, while being able to cruise at 300 KTAS.Cheers,- jahman.
