December 27, 201213 yr Greetings, Time to kick off my first post here at the Avsim forums! I've been a long time lurker and have been flying the FS franchise for years now. Just recently did I get back into FSX thanks to a GPU upgrade & the Carenado Christmas sale that just happened. I wish I could have picked up a few more of their planes but sadly the King Air & 182 were not part of the sale this year. I ended up going with the 337H Skymaster and am very happy about the purchase. The plane is fantastic & probably the most detailed plane that I have for FSX. I will definitely be planning some nice flights with this plane in the near future! Hope everyone enjoys the screenshots :p0502: Ryzen 5800X3D | X570 Aorus Pro | 32GB DDR4-3600 CL16 | RX 6800 | 500GB Samsung 970 Evo Plus | 2TB Crucial P3 | RM650x | Creative Sound Blaster AE-5 | NZXT S340 Elite | MSI 34" 3440x1440 100Hz
December 27, 201213 yr Moderator Nice pics, I also picked up this plane and like it so far, been using it around the new Milford Sound scenery from OrbX. My ownly complaint would be that I have no way of adjusting both of the mixture, or prop controls at the same time like with other planes. e.g. The realair duke handles this really well and allows right-click to adjust one, and left-click to adjust both, leaving the throttle control to adjust both by default. Luckily not so much an issue as it won't cause a balance issue :-)
December 27, 201213 yr Beautiful! But the first one... that's not a screenshot, is it? It look so real. Flo Florian
December 27, 201213 yr Author Thank you for the nice comments everyone! My ownly complaint would be that I have no way of adjusting both of the mixture, or prop controls at the same time like with other planes. e.g. The realair duke handles this really well and allows right-click to adjust one, and left-click to adjust both, leaving the throttle control to adjust both by default. Luckily not so much an issue as it won't cause a balance issue :-) Sorry tonywob, I haven't actually played around with the mixture/prop controls yet so unfortunately I am of no help there. I don't know much about this plane in real life, but do you think that both props need to run at the same RPM's so there is no disturbance? Beautiful! But the first one... that's not a screenshot, is it? It look so real.

December 28, 201213 yr Hi, I integrated checklist for this c337 from www.aftc.aero with author permission. Maybe interesting for you.

December 28, 201213 yr I have the C337 and it's my favorite non-pressurized piston twin. Great visibility from the cockpit and overall just a nice aircraft for flying one to two hour flights. It's a great aircraft for GA enthusiasts, I think and your screenshots show it well. John
December 28, 201213 yr Author Hi, I integrated checklist for this c337 from www.aftc.aero with author permission. Thanks Pierre, but the link doesn't seem to work! :( I have the C337 and it's my favorite non-pressurized piston twin. Great visibility from the cockpit and overall just a nice aircraft for flying one to two hour flights. It's a great aircraft for GA enthusiasts, I think and your screenshots show it well. John I think you described it perfectly John. The views are great, the quality of the interior/exterior is superb, and it's just a unique plane to fly in. I did my first flight in years last night with this plane and it was such a blast. The only problem - I can see my wallet getting thinner because I really want some new OrbX scenery now! :lol: Thanks for the comments :smile: Ryzen 5800X3D | X570 Aorus Pro | 32GB DDR4-3600 CL16 | RX 6800 | 500GB Samsung 970 Evo Plus | 2TB Crucial P3 | RM650x | Creative Sound Blaster AE-5 | NZXT S340 Elite | MSI 34" 3440x1440 100Hz

December 29, 201213 yr Moderator I was so close to getting it during the 1/2 off sale and procrastinated so long that when I went to back to get it the sale had ended by a few minutes. I wish I had picked it up for 1/2 price but didn't thinking it wouldn't get much use but I regret the decision since it was less than $20. Oh well, i'll get it next sale. Nice pics btw.

December 29, 201213 yr I picked up the 337 shortly after it was released and it's been one of my favorite planes ever since. Welcome to the 337 fanatics club! :lol: Scott
