HelloThe Socata TBM 700 would be a great choice and it is freeware with an update due out soon, I have been flying this exclusivly since its release.Flight1 PC12 , FSD Piper Navajho, Aeroworx B200 there are lots to choose from

The Dreamfleet B58 has six seats (pilot, copilot, club seating for four), but with its long-range fuel tanks, your carrying capacity goes way down with a large fuel load. At max fuel of 200 gallons, you can only carry one other person.The FSD Navajo Panther carries pilot + copilot + 5. Not sure on the Feelthere 208. If you need more than that, the Aeroworx King Air B200 (GREAT plane) carries 7 passengers. If you like old-school and freeware, there's a great Beech 18 by Milton Shupe here in the library that seats 8. Premier's Twin Otter carries over 10, I believe (another great piece of freeware). And of course, the PMDG Express Beech 1900C or 1900D seat up to 19.Lewis "Moose" GregoryRichmond, Virginia

thanks, im leaning toward the pc-12, simply because you can seat 9pax plus 2 crew and it can in to all the small places as well as cruise high and far.ciao!Brian S

Aquisition/operating costs not factored in, it's the PCXII all the way. It can seat 11 in commuter airliner config.Best Regards, Donny:-waveFLYing? It's cool. Trillions of birds and insects can't be wrong.
