Flight1 T182T?

 

Nice plane but prefer the steam gauges. Thanks for the tip. The glass is a heavy hit for fluidity and prefer not to.

 

Thanks form chiming in!!

Bob, I'd agree with others. I think you're down to the Carenado Turbo 210.

 

Climb to 0-2 levels and you'll get the speed you're looking for. It's a very nice plane, with RealityXP integration if that matters to you, has a good instrument package and flies well, though it's perhaps a bit sensitive in trim and elevator. The night lighting is a bit iffy (OK, it's my least favorite thing about the plane), and the cockpit visibility is not that of, say, the 337, as the wing is further forward, the side windows smaller and the panel higher, but that's the way the real-world plane is.

 

Gotta love that big turboed engine though, it's wonderful out of high density altitude airports and the cockpit textures are gorgeous.

I wish Bernt would do his magic with the 210 FDE.

No doubt - at one time I think he was considering it, but it never came to pass :Cry:

Amen.

Double amen. Just bought it yesterday and I've already hangared it.

Out of curiosity, what exactly is wrong with the 210's FDE? I'm not a RW pilot of that plane (or any other one, actually), so I wouldn't know how it should be flying for real.

Well, I can't speak for others, only my own experience and I'm not a RW C210 pilot though I do have experience in 152, 172 and 182 (love the 182). For me, this one flies absolutely great..cessna-ish...up until time for flare. In other Cessna models you just pretty much cut power and it settles down nicely. In this aircraft, if you cut power, you'll land on all three wheels at the same time (or very close), get a slight nose first bounce or, if you're high and get below 62 KIAS it'll fall onto the runway. What I found works best is If you hold power (about 10.5 to 12 on the manifold) if you sloooowly pitch back, it will flare and land on the main gear but you have to be very careful and smooth with the nose. That's the best I could come up with. I did a lot of reading on RW forums and found differing advice (and I tried most of them) but some of the suggestions weren't good, IMO, for this sim.

Try a Centurion.

I indeed notuiced that it was more difficult to get down properly. Thanks for the advice, I'll try it on my next flight!
