February 1, 20197 yr Its a know thing that the turbos on the Piper Navajo glow at night due to heat,never thought I would see this in sim but wow here it is! I discovered it tonight while crossing from Iceland to Greenland. Note the red glow coming from inside the the engine cowl ATP MEL,CFI,CFII,MEI. Type Ratings B-737, ERJ-190,ERJ-170

February 1, 20197 yr Navajo Chieftain was my first ME airplane not involving my ME rating. Quite an impression to see that glow at night through engine louvers. Dang, that's HOT! Rich Boll Richard Boll Wichita, KS

February 2, 20197 yr it's basically 99% the same plane in my humble opinion except that the Chieftain has the GNS 600 while the Navajo has the 6 pack instruments. With GA aircraft I now prefer flying with instruments instead of GNS600 or G1000. Ryzen 5 5600X - Noctua U12A, 32Gb Vengence, Sapphire Pulse 5700xt, WD Black SN750 NVMe SSD
February 2, 20197 yr OK, gotha. I prefer steam gauges too. My conundrum is that Chieftains is more common where I fly and I like the commuter version too. I'll just have to mull a little while longer I guess lol But thanks anyways :)
