Looks great Ryan thanks!

Is this the sort of paint kit where any real world scheme can be painted like the A2A, or kind of limited?

Definitely!  A person could do the entire thing like normal.  These are just swaps so I make them really fast!

@MattNischan, that looks great!   However...

I do not see the glideslope indicator active in that screenshot... 🤫

Have you tried an LPV approach.. and does the HSI GSI needle work correctly there? 

Carenado is notorious for only supporting ILS, not LPV landings..  Just look at the C337.

Why do you sound so disappointed Bert? Isn't this par for the course with Carenado. On the positive side it gives you the the opportunity to sort it out. Plus, it IS a very nice offering for £12! In fact it's a steal.

EDIT: The GTN750 isn't the be all and end all. Pretend you've rented it.

True there aren't a lot of rentals with a 750.  I have seen a few 650 retrofits on 172s around my local area though!

I don't understand a new requirement in the marketplace V-tails. I clicked 'buy' on the Bonanza and a screen popped up and asked if I was a doctor! ??

People do crazy stuff. Here is 35 with Dynon. This pick was from last year the owner already swapped GNS430 with Avdyne ID440 LOL

I'm afraid to buy this because I flown it quite a lot and  I  most likely will be disappointed with FM by Carenado. I will wait for A2A !

Maybe I can grab some numbers for you.  Happen to have your POH handy?

A great purchase!!!

I love the retro style of the “Fork-Tailed Doctor Killer”.

And when I land it doesn’t seem to veer wildly back and forth like the other Carenados!

You know me well, Ron, I love to tinker and fix things... but MS have decided to shut me out by encrypting the files that I would need access to... Hence my lobbying campaign.

I hope that @MattNischanhas more clout than I do 😉

Since this is a marketplace aircraft there is no way to tweak it if it’s not, correct? 
 

She’s pretty. Unless it’s way off I may have to buy it anyway.

Awesome!  Love your repaints so far on this one, if you find a real-world orange and chocolate brown livery to re-create I'd be very thankful!  (Sorry, born in 1975! 🙂 )

I just love this plane....maybe my best $15.88 spent this whole year (including pizzas!)

Unfortunately not on me. I borrowed it when I needed 😞
