Is P3D V4 lacking a regional jet

Recommended Posts

Hi all, 

Im usually the type to fly airliners but thinking about getting a regional jet for the shorter hops, I have the pmdg 747 as well as the majestic dash 8. Id be looking for something like an CRJ or something similar...

perhaps even a single engine turbo prop to fly the simulated medevacs type.

So, Is P3D lacking a decent regional jet or single engine turboprop?

Thanks

Aerosoft has a nice CRJ 700/900.  It has some glitches with the CDU, but they have been actively patching it since it's release.  Virtualcol has the CRJ's too, but a bit more casual.  Carenado is going to be releasing a turboprop SAAB 340 sometime soon I think, which should be nice as well.  All are compatible with v4.

The Aerosoft CRJ finally has most of the kinks worked out of it and the TFDi Boeing 717 is a real gem.

There’s another thread about Carenados offerings today. Generally the Pc12 comes out ok with Berts mods. I like it.

Actually, the updated version includes the GTN 750 integration (you must have purchased the GTN beforehand, of course) and it's quite the fun aircraft to quickly get off the ground in.

I don't know why people are saying the CRJ is "nice" and "has most of the bugs worked out", it's still broken in shambles and worthless at this point, and Aerosoft has yet to respond for weeks on the issue. This is now the 4th or 5th try and they have still failed to find the bugs in their own software.

If I were the OP I would stay miles away from the CRJ

The Aerosoft CRJ works beautifully on my system. I only had some minor issues shortly after release, but now it does exactly what I would expect it to do (and I am following amplified checklists).

The TFDi B717 ia also a great plane. Between the two, it only comes down to which brand you prefer.

The AS CRJ is fine I suppose if you don't mind the possibility of making circles in LNAV mode. I find that hardly acceptable. It still has a long way to go IMO.

I have yet to experience this. I acknowledge that a number of people appear to have that problem, but I never had it.

Perhaps not 100% but quite often. I fly 100's of hours/mo. My sincere hope is they can rectify it and make for a very good RJ. It does have great potential. The tfdi 717 is nice but also has some growth to do.  A VLJ Mustang as a RJ? Not hardly. :)
