Need a new twin turbo...King Air or Cheyenne?

[ryanbatc 12,770]

Well the Cheyenne might have more features, but its current cost is about 47 bucks!!! yikes! A tad much for a GA aircraft...imho...30 bucks for the BE20....I own the BE20 but not the PAY2....and I really enjoy the BE20.... 17 bucks less too

Personally, I prefer the Cheyenne, however the King Air is an amazing product. Both aircraft have exceptional panels, 2D and VC. I find the Cheyenne more enjoyable because it's flight dynamics are more forgiving for landing. You can take a break from it for months and go back without having to relearn like the B200. The B200 (King Air) loves to bounce and can be tricky to land. They both handle really well in turns though, unlike a lot of add-ons that are overly sensitive in pitch.I guess it comes down to being able to land better without too much practice, and having a better GPS than the default with different skin.Both planes are being updated for FSX, just so you all know.

Anyone know if Digital Aviation's PA-31T Cheyenne will be released for FSX?

[Orlaam 306]

Yes, they're doing it now, so hopefully soon.

I've read all the post's in this thread. Why don't you guys head off back to FS9 and enjoy flying them like they are supposed to fly?Seems that you are all suffering? LOL :-)

Because I just can't fly in FS9 anymore. I keep coming back to FSX. And that includes on this stupid slow (by today's standards) laptop. I can't say what it is. I'm just more comfortable there.I've always liked using VC's better than 2D cockpits, so it's probably the way you can use the mouse to look around that makes it work for me.Keep those fully usable vc planes a'comin'!(now if I could just figure out how to keep my mouse on the button when my head's bobbin' around :-) Seriously, what's needed is a "snap-to" function for gauges so that when your head is moving around, the mouse hand stays on the gauge it's closest to, similar to what's been used in solid modelers for years)Thomas[a href=http://www.flyingscool.com] http://www.flyingscool.com/images/Signature.jpg [/a]I like using VC's :-)N15802 KASH '73 Piper Cherokee Challenger 180
