July 14, 20232 yr I suspect it's not going to interest anywhere near as many people, but Black Square are also making the piston version, not just the turbine. https://www.justflight.com/product/black-square-piston-duke

July 14, 20232 yr Sweet Action! Ryan, Reference the Duke fly-in in your area a few years ago, what would you say the ratio between piston and turbine was?

More pistons but probably 20% were turbines or so (some not shown here were in the hangars) 20130914_IMG_4017 by Ryan Butterworth, on Flickr 20130914_IMG_4029 by Ryan Butterworth, on Flickr | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |

The piston is slightly faster at lower altitudes if you really push it. I think Vno is around 220 kias. In the turbine Vne is 198 or something if I remember correctly. They're both just incredibly beautiful aircraft in the sim and in person. | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |
July 14, 20232 yr I think for me honestly it was largely the sounds…the Real Air piston Duke soundset was just music to my ears.

I flew the hec of my Real Air Dukes and used the piston version for short hops because it was faster and the turbine for the longer missions for the same reason. I always pushed them both and never hurt the engines in the piston, but I did destroy a couple of the turbines. The turbine was the newer of the two (by Real Air) and so it was slightly more realistic from an engine damage perspective. Man that turbine could climb like a home sick angel… Love Airplanes and American Muscle Cars

I recall about 4000 fpm initial climb and then a sustained 3000 fpm or so up into the mid 20 flight levels. | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |
July 14, 20232 yr oh baby *******, loved the Real Air Turbine Duke. This will do nicely, day 1 for sure! Thomas Derbyshire
