June 2, 201511 yr Moderator Thanks for the heads up Peter. I love all of their helis (even the older ones), so will be picking this up for sure :-)

June 2, 201511 yr Well, it looks nice and it flies nice with good sound effects, but the implementation doesn't seem to be pretty deep. It is bigger than many Carenados, but it doesn't have their looks and features. So it is OK for the price but nothing really special. I would say the TwinOtter is better. Karsten Schubert
June 2, 201511 yr Author There is an issue with the sound - a fix can be found here: http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?showtopic=74038&p=924567 First impressons: It is quite lively - much more so than the Carenado 1900D - but it can be dialled out. So it takes a little more care and attention. The VC is not as sharp as Carenado offerings to my eye but maybe that is the way the real thing looks - more utilitarian. The engine sounds are sublime - or should be with fix - not had chance to check yet. No GPS. But I know it I am going to be spending some time in it to get to know it better.

June 6, 201511 yr I love the airplane so far, here is a first look video I did on it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSZStBLRfWU
June 11, 201510 yr The plane is not bad. Here are a few points: Pro: -Flight dynamics. It flies really good! Handfly this plane is a joy! -Rain effect looks good -Sound is very good. I love the turbine sounds. -Beautiful "old-style" cockpit. Con: -No ice effect. -No Scrollwheel support. This should be standard in new planes. -This one is the biggest issue for me. No GNS 430/530. Finally we have a decent GPS in Xplane, and now they dont use it in their new planes. The GPS used in this plane looks like the stock Xplane FMS. Please make at least a pop-up GPS. C'mon its 2015. I saw gliders out there which uses at least a handheld Garmin. - Only three liveries. I hope for more
June 13, 201510 yr Author Loads of fixes in v1.2 now out. No GPS but actually I love it without.
