Carenado C90 GTX or RealAir Turbine Duke V2?

Featured Replies

Just trying to decide which one to add to the hangar.  I'm familiar with Carenado products (Phenom 100 & 300) but I don't have a RealAir add-on yet.  Anybody own either C90 GTX and/or Turbine Duke V2?  What do you think of them?

 

 

RealAir, no doubt.

 

And I have both..

+1 I agree, RealAir V2 Duke

Regards

Have both.  Rarely fly the C90 (not bad, but...), while the V2 Turbine Duke is a favorite.

 

The Duke is made even better with its support for the RXP 430 and 530 GPS (in FSX) and the F1 GTN 650 and 750 (in both FSX and P3D).

 

These are substantially different planes IRL (the C90 a corporate/charter workhorse, while the T-Duke is a pocket rocket of a well-healed private pilot's dream), in the sim the RealAir plane is a distinctive cut above the Carenado C90.

Turbine Duke V2. To the dismay of my wife, ive logged many, many hours in the T-Duke!

I've owned every version of flight simulator since Flight Simulator 3.0 in 1988.

Windows 11 Pro loaded on a 4TB Gen5 Crucial T700 SSD, 4TB Samsung 990 Pro SSD, Ryzen 9 7950x3d, AS Rock X670e Taichi Motherboard, Gigabyte Gaming RTX 4090 OC 24GB, 64GB (2x32GB) Viper Venom  DDR5-6000MT/s, MSI 32" MAG 321UPX QD-OLED 260hz 4K Gaming Monitor.

 

 

Yep, RealAir T-Duke... you are in for a real treat!  It's a fantastic plane, truly one of the best.

I will add another vote for the RA Duke. You actually get both eye candy and nice systems modeling! Something Carenado still hasn't learned how to deliver.

Thanks all...  Duke IT IS!!!!

The Real Air Turbine Duke (along with the Majestic Q400) set the 'gold standard' for FSX turboprop aircraft today.

And documentation too!!

I have the C90 GTX and I highly recommend adding it to your hanger. It quickly became one of my favorites.
