For the time being my relatively speedy plane with scenery appreciating visibility is the 337. Oh! Retractable gear as well as two engine security.

A CFI friend of mine flew an Apache, and he used to offer me free rides on it back and forth from Hollywood Florida to the Bahamas. I was always afraid to get in that word not allowed aircraft, knowing that if one of the engines quit while taking off from KHWO, we were going to let the running engine fly us to the scene of the crash. It would not climb on one engine, in fact, we would be lucky to maintain altitude.

May 22, 20233 yr I seem to get involuntary facial spasms every time I read about a new aircraft I've always wanted in the sim, but then see Carenado's name attached to it.

While most light twins are often underpowered there is way to do proper preflight to figure out accelerated to stop distance and one engine performance. Certainly one engine performance suck, but you still can hang on it for a while. I personally think twins are best to fly over water! To have an extra engine is better than take swim lol When I did my multi I was always worry about mountains and climb gradient, but in Florida I think the only thing to worry is density altitude ( and may be crocodiles lol) I was fortunate enough to completely shut down and restart my engine during my training and checkride (pa44). Yes, it’s a little struggle but it gets you to emergency field lol here is my old vid.

May 22, 20233 yr If they are gradually bringing the former fleet over then my real hope is the emb 110 which I though was one of the best overall carenado aircraft. AMD 5830X Nvidia RTX 3060 Win 11
