I do love the low and slow of the pipers, but the C414 is in a different class.. its a piston version of a king air with a service ceiling of 30K !! I usually fly at 20K so that I can match the fuel burn numbers with the RAM IV POH given by FSW.. I love the maintenance aspects of it, and it almost approaches A2A/Airfoil labs when it comes to that ownership experience.. beautiful aircraft in real life, beautifully modeled in the sim.. It has the potential to bring in even more FBO/maintenance sort of experience in the future provided MSFS steps up its SDK.. What maintenance aspect? I love the 414 but I think the one thing it is missing is the maintenance and engine simulation.

As a quick aside, whenever I watch AvAngel's videos, I can't help but picture the English actress Alex Kingston's face behind the voice. They sound just alike. Really enjoy her videos, it's entertaining getting her take on the various aircraft out there.

I love the 414 but I think the one thing it is missing is the maintenance and engine simulation. ya it doesn't right now, but at least it has taken a step in that direction.. like opening engine doors, fuel and oil caps, showing oil dipstick etc.. best case scenario would be like airfoil labs, where you can check oil level in dipstick, take avgas sample from all tanks and verify, and other FBO, persistence aspects.. current SDK doesn't allow it yet i guess.. Vinod Kumar i9 10900K 5.3 Ghz, RTX 3090, 32GB RAM, Win 11. Alpha-Yoke, Bravo-Throttles, TM Joystick, TM-Rudder, 48" 4K TV.

It would be nice if they could replicate the 310 though... with some level of maintenance required. I look forward to the A2A Comanche.
July 25, 20223 yr Late to this one. Is the 414 still in beta or finalized? Latest video at The Flight Level Flight Over Frozen Lake Erie - Between Ice and Clouds - Ultimate Solitude - The Perfect Memory
