Just Flight turbo arrow

Turbo Arrow is exactly what I need flying in mountains! LOL

Tonopah...very familiar with the area from DCS Nevada map...I have bailed out over those mountains many, many, many times.

Enjoying the Turbo.

Clouds rolling in from the sea, 

The view looking the other way.

@Nyxx Great angles on the pictures, and I love that Gulf repaint as well.

Where is that estuary in the second picture?

I actually prefer to do "high" approaches when shooting visual none instrument approaches. There are several advantages. The first you can make runway if engine quit! The second one you not "drag" airplane on power but instead glide converting potential energy to kinetic. Among disadvantages quicker and higher round up 

 

This is my old crappy vid, but it proves the point at 5:17

What a great plane! Today was my first opportunity to purchase, and test it out. First thing that struck me was the engine sound when I fired her up. Just beautiful. Meaty, and throaty, and full of life.

Coming from the normally aspirated Piper, the turbo seems a lot livelier in the air, but in a good way. Landings seem to warrant more of my attention now. Also, I’m not sure if either Just Flight, or Asobo have tweaked the rudder/runway characteristics, but I don’t seem to be getting the snap-turns at 60 knots with this thing.
 

All in all, I’m loving my new favourite plane 🙂

Well the Turbo III landing characteristics should be pretty much the same as the Standard Arrow though clearly if the T-Tail IV is modelled correctly it will land differently.

It's against all of the laws of nature to not love T-tails.  We all know this.

20 Miles north of the Georgia Florida border...practicing flying VOR to VOR with a strong crosswind, Brilliant!

I always was the odd one out 😄   Can't stand T-tails on small planes, looks fugly.   I get in the cockpit and never use an external cam so i can forget it has one 😛

Me too. Much prefer the lower tail.
