KBKV KPIE KSPG KVDF KTPA Basically all the airports in my area. Thanks! Of course, glad to do that for you. I'll get right onto it....and post the results on this thread. I'll load in KBKV right now. Oh..as to your question...yes, that is the TE-Florida HD 'default'...I had the great surprise, that Orbx has slipped in a stand alone Orbx_Florida_Airports file along with the TE Florida HD download. I of course love flying into the airport (Charlotte/KPGD) as that is the airport my wife and I always fly into to visit my sister and bro-in-law, because it's only a few miles from their home in North Port. So, I loaded up KPGD, and expected my gateway KGPD...uh-uh...had a heck of a lot better, upgraded version XP plopped me down onto. Animations, ground traffic, more buildings, great parking lots...and oh...in many of the airports you have animated wand moving ground Marshalls along with automated pole mounted signal stops for the Jetways, like for instance at Orlando, which I flew to yesterday. So, many surprises and EASTER EGGS come with this baby! Edited February 8, 20206 yr by Sesquashtoo

I'm also going to use the lighter ground cover xVision as I think he much prefers that over my more moodier, 'default'. Here we go...back soon...
February 10, 20206 yr Great series Mitch! I literally laugh out loud every time I see this plane. Never has an aircraft design ever so closely resembled a tadpole in my eyes... I know CitationMax used to fly this plane but moved to Cessna's jets (now in a CJ3+....what a step up!)....he said it was because the mission changed which while true....I always thought in the back of my head it was aesthetics that pushed him away from this plane. 🙂 I hear ya....beauty is in the eye of the beholder....and some love the lines of this plane, but its unusual to say the least...no denying that. Apologies to the die-hard affectionados of this quirky-looking bird. But hey.....if I was get one as a gift...I'd love it as my own...LoL. Better than what I currently own (nada).

Well, it gets great fuel mileage Steve, good range, can run at 235 knots, and seats five in my fantasy life, lol! I have five in my real life,....the All Powerful One, and three thinking-they-are....so it works out! Check them out upon YouTube in real life vids...a very nice plane. A couple that I follow owns one...they fly every weekend, here and there around the States...and just love it. They paid over a million for theirs...and I paid whatever XP11 was at the time, LOL! Seriously though, if I won the lottery, I'd be looking for one, by those real-life flights of theirs. Great cabin comfort, good passenger and flight ergonomics, and I guess, it's that very tad pole shape that slices through the air for such great performance, but lets you load a whole family in... They say that the engine has been around for ages...is super reliable, and doesn't bankrupt you for required maintenance. Edited February 11, 20206 yr by Sesquashtoo
