I was surfing around for info on another aircraft and saw this Aero Commander 560A. Woh. I'd be in line. 200kts cruise. 19,000 ft ceiling.

 

Wow.....I love the looks of that bird. Please give us one, developers. My credit card is out!

Too slow... I'll take the AC95 instead

I think about that thread.. I believe we forgot to list the Bronco... It's quite fast... easily does 250 ktas low down... not a lot of instrumentation but excellent view from the canopy

Never been much for military aircraft myself...cept the C337/O2...another nice high wing.

It must be those three magic letters - FSX.

 

I have almost a 1,000 hours PIC in that exact model. Every landing was smooth as silk. Never had an engine fail.

On the inside, they don't look much like the one I saw a few years back on the flight line (real world). Looked newer. Gorgeous airplane!

That looks like a BN-2 Islander on speed.

I own and fly the AC680 in FlyteLine all the time (with FSX). I love it's speed and performance for small loads like 5 or 6 pax or light cargo (up to 2000lb). It has a good FDE. I just recently noticed that the fuel tanks are not working properly but keeping the tanks evenly adjusted during flight (cheating?) rectifies the situation. I may try to contact the author for a possible fix.

EDIT: I just emailed M. Shupe posing the question of what can be done about the fuel usage.

That's where I found it Ray! I read your stuff!

Then check this out and give me your thoughts. I guess it will have to be a PM as they locked the post.

The AC680 is faster, I think. The BN-2 from Flight1 is a terrific flying addon and flies soooooo slow on approaches and landings.

It flies slow all the time!

 

BTW Ray, your user pic reminds me of being on safari with Bawana Clyde Batty.....

That photo was from a screen test for the movie The Alamo a few years back. Movie was a big time flop, but I got a lot of free water and laying around in the shade while they decided who would win which battle. I was killed in every scene. I didn't tell the producers but I knew how it ended before they started filming.

Anyone tried this in FSX?

 

I enjoyed many a flight with this aircraft in FS9.

I worked with it some bout 18 months ago but gave up getting it running in FSX. The individual instruments took 'forever' to load. It was like everything in the plane was custom built and need a cray computer to run it all at the same time. Someone may have optimized it since then. I am like the OP, I would love to see a native AC560A like the photo done up nice in FSX.
