Hey Jimjam...didnt i see where you posted once that your screen name came from that monkey in the speed racer cartoon from the 60's? If thats right, your name is wrong... its Chim Chim. Believe it or not...I looked it up on google!(how is that for totally random?!)Eric

>I have a hunch that they do the planes that they have immediate personal access to at their home airfield in South America. That's could explain both the lack of variety - and the exquisite detail (inside and outside)of their planes. I've got them all, and I'll be getting this next one as well!

Carenado is based in Santiago , Chile. If you search the net you can find some real world planes on what recent releases are based.Cessna 182 RG Skylane II http://myaviation.net/?pid=00248435 Piper PA-28-180 Cherokee Archerhttp://myaviation.net/?pid=00248427http://www.airliners.net/open.file/348872/L/ Piper PA-28-236 Dakotahttp://myaviation.net/?pid=00217648 Cessna U206 Stationair IIhttp://www.airliners.net/open.file/558405/M/If you want Mooney by Carenado , bring one to Santiago ;)

looks like everything else they have produced..... i'll passtoo many similar cessnas

One of the ground crew started calling me that when he saw my name was Jim and is kinda stuck. Well he said he got it from Speedracer but he is also the guy who got in trouble for sitting in planes and sucking up all the oxygen to get rid of his hangovers!

HA! That old oxygen trick is a doctors and dentists favorite, not just pilots! So jimjam is/was a callsign?Eric

That was true of their T-34 airplane for sure. Same way Dreamfleet works actually.

If only someone did a Cardinal... I know, I know, DF did one ages ago. But I'd like to see one done to today's standards.Daniel P.http://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/supporter.jpgMember of SJU Photography.

"DC-8 to list a few that no one has ever done before would be nice? Yes I know DF are doing a DC-8 before you flame me."Phew, that was close!

Was really hoping they would update their Tomahawk..

Yes same old thing again..........Anthony

I agree, I think they should have done something new, like the latest GA planes that are coming out with glass cockpits. Something like that would be great.

Perhaps there are some that don't own everything that Carenado has produced and this particular model will strike thier fancy. Also, Carenado does have a habbit of continued improvment from one release to the next.
