March 22, 201412 yr I have been checking out the Pilatius PC-12 and the TBM 850. Both of them are amazing aircraft. I think it is pretty Kool to push 30,000' in a single with state of the art avionics. I have been searching for a top notch FSX version of either, preferably the Pilatius and no ill feelings for Carenado or Wilco. So if anyone knows of another or here is a shout out to the developers. Thanks, Ron Fields
March 22, 201412 yr I found another rendition of the PC12 at Flight 1 - http://www.flight1.com/products.asp?product=fsxpc12. I conducted some searches on Google and there are some freeware versions too. There are a lot of options out there. AVSIM has some reviews of these products too. Hope this helps.

March 23, 201412 yr If I remember correctly Razbam are(were?) developing a PC-12. "If you can't solve and equation with calculus, you're not using enough calculus" - A wise friend
March 23, 201412 yr Of the three, I have to say I prefer the Wilco TBM 850. I have the PC-12, and while it is nice, it is a "fighter trainer" versus the TBM. The PC-12 is fun to shoot the canyon course, scare the bejeebuz out of the flatlanders, but the TBM is much nicer for real high-and-fast traveling. I also have the Carenado TBM, and prefer the Wilco.

I think you are confusing the PC-7 with the PC-12. Here is a link for the PC-12. It is an awesome next generation small single transport similar to the TBM-850. Thanks, Ron Fields
March 23, 201412 yr I think you are confusing the PC-7 with the PC-12. Even worse, Ron. Transposed the digits - the PC-21 is the fighter trainer from Iris... potato, otatop.

John Sorry: I had to look up the plane I thought you were talking about. I knew what it looked like (or so I thought). I just watched a video of the PC-12 cruising at FL 220 and 290 Kts. Pretty good for a single. P&W PT-6. Thanks, Ron Fields
