August 24, 20178 yr 1) 690B Turbo Commander 2) PC12 (Bert's MOD) 3) C337 4) C208B Grand Caravan EX 5) 500 Aero Commander I have a couple Carenado Business jets but #1 and #2 are the most flown by me. All have GTN 750 by F1. I do slip the Aerosoft DHC6-300 Twin Otter in between #1 and #2 for short haul passenger runs. Dick
August 24, 20178 yr I routinely fly these: - AC500 - PA23 - C207 - Piper Tomahawk - I enjoy the C337, but it doesn't get flown atm due to not having a proper GPS - BE58 (with REP) - C210 (with REP) I would/will fly these when they are updated for V4: - C550 Citation II - C185

August 24, 20178 yr None. They are nothing more then eye candy junk! I stupidly purchased the turbo Commander 2 weeks ago after I said to my self in the past never again. I thought its been about 3 years since I started boycotting Caranardo so I will give them a second chance. What a mistake. Still eye candy junk.

August 24, 20178 yr I fly the Alabeo Seminole on a regular basis - very nice airplane. Carenado favorites... PC12, C90GTX, Phenom 300.. Add a Flight1 GTN750 and your avionics needs are taken care of.. Bert

August 24, 20178 yr Phenom 300, M20R Mooney, C337, 500S Aero Commander. As others have said: the piston aircraft and jets are pretty good. Turboprops are...problematic. This is true of most turboprops regardless of developer. This is due to the underlying code base. Only the developers who write their software to bypass this limitation succeed. (I'm looking at you Majestic!) Piston aircraft makers, in my opinion: A2A > Milviz > the others. Jet aircraft makers, in my opinion: PMDG > Flysimware > Aerosoft > the others. Turbine aircraft makers, in my opinion: Majestic > Flight 1 > the others.

As far as I am concerned the C337 was the only great plane Caranardo has made. Its a shame Caranardo focus on quantity instead of quality.

If they could do some QA it would help. They seem to not have much of an idea of what the buttons do. I'd even pay for a 2.0 if the fixes were significant. A C337 with a new cockpit layout, working cowl flaps that cause you to have to watch temperature, better night lighting. A Mirage with GTN750/650 integration, sound improvements, a working ground radio, not defaulting to both fuel tanks (which is not possible in the real plane), a non-autocoordinated rudder, better night lighting, working cowl flaps. A TBM with steam gauges. This, to me, is a real 2.0 and, also, a proof that I'm a broken record. A dev that wanted to make an airplane great would probably want to spend some time reading over at PPrune to see what oddities an airplane has...lots of good info there.

August 24, 20178 yr The CJ2, recently I've been giving the Premiere some play time but I am about to hop back into the Phenom 300 since it got an update. Ryan Spel

August 25, 20178 yr I was looking to see how many 337's were reg'ed here in the US and only found 4 and one of them is located in Iran right now. Does that sound right??
