Anybody care to review the Cheyenne III?

No matter, I feel the power of engines and their sound identities. The aircraft behaves well in flight, in IFR it follows the flight plan as well as the approach. The flight model I think it's good.
Now remains to know if I fly well in a version III ? Only Carenado can say as well as the pilots who approved this aircraft.

A good landing is one where you can walk away.  A great landing is one in which you can reuse the airplane.  Glad to hear your positive report.  Takes time to get used to an airplane like this.

I just read, interesting I learn every day. I did not know this kind of propeller at all.

Thank you for the link.

QTip propellers are fabulous cos shut out a lot the noise, in the Turbo Commander family are optional, and in the gran Renaissance program are included, the Garrett scream it's less with QTip propellers.

Most folks would kill for 44 fps.  If it's smooth you would have a very hard time distinguishing 44 fps from 60 fps.  Most monitors refresh at 60 fps so anything above that is wasted.  I have a fairly high-end system and 30 fps is just fine with me if it doesn't jitter.
