I saw the Royal Turbine Duke in FF, isn't that the same plane? Go check again Im pretty sure its in there. 

There isn't any profile data in there.  The weights and everything you need are blank.  You'd have to enter all the data yourself.

  • Guys, just to let everyone know that a few hours ago new official simbrief profiles have been added, for all the dukes they are named BE60, BE6G and B60T https://forum.navigraph.com/t/b60t-s

    I'm not totally sure where this information comes from, but that is not accurate. At the core is, the sim does not support hot swapping avionics. We have advised developers against utilizing hot

  • I'd say FlySimWare Cessna 414 if it can't be the Duke.

No, it installed smooth as silk on a second drive

The turbine Duke typically won't go as far as the manual states.  I've seen between 900 to 1100 nm.  Here is a link or two with some real world numbers:

Technically it should. Performance depends on environment. For example a strong head wind and hotter temperature can decrease range significantly. Primary source of performance calculation of course should be POH with serial number and up to days W&B. Those ads are not valid source of information

According to the scale on the cabin pressure controller, the Turbine Duke can sustain a typical airliner cabin altitude of 8,000 ft only up to a pressure altitude of 22,000 ft.

Question: How do real-world operators typically deal with this? Do they limit their cruise altitude to FL 220? Do they use supplemental oxygen above FL 220? Do they simply accept the higher cabin altitude? IIUC, cabin altitudes up to 12,000 ft are legal, though they may not be prudent for extended periods of time.

Yeah I can use them.  Why do you ask?

GNS 530/430 does not work for me. Both are black and I found no way to make it function. I'm with the piston and in SU15 beta.

Did you install them from the Marketplace? I believe they aren't installed by default.

No, I purchased it from JustFlight. During the installation process I was asked if I'm in SU15 beta, which I confirmed with YES.

Wonder if they'll implement a function so you can buy the Piston / Turbine at a discount (essentially bundle price) if you've bought one of the versions, in case you decide to try what the other side is like.

I think he means did you install the wt GNS from the marketplace?

I was about to ask the same question. If someone knows anything about this I would love to know

Just buy the bundle. It’s already at a steep discount compared to buying both separately. Having both variants is really fun. Two different airplanes but the same airplane at the same time. It’s worth it. I thought I wouldn’t fly the piston at all. Turns out that’s all I’ve been flying.

This. You need to install the GNS 430/530 from the Marketplace. If it's not working for you @Nemo, that'd be the first thing I'd look at.
