    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.

Only one (minor) failure so far, that was in British Columbia.

Curious... what was the failure?

You know I can't remember, and I didn't write it down.  It was something on the right engine but it wasn't critical.   It happened on my flight from Juneau to Bella Coola.

I made that paint hehe.  It's based on the real version of a royal turbine I saw when I used to work in DLH.

I've never seen a Duke in-person.  Incidentally, I *did* see a Mooney in-person for the first time the other day.  Always have liked those.  Maybe if I hang around the airport enough, I'll see a Duke, but they're rare and expensive birds.

You probably know this already, but in case you don't, both piston and turbine Dukes work fine in MSFS2024.

The only thing I've noticed is any dynamic liveries fly just fine, but on first load they won't look correct.  After the second and all subsequent loads, they look and work fine at least on my system.  Ryan might know more about this than I do.

I am going to be flying the Turbine Duke tomorrow around Brazil. Should be fun

Hi Bob. Would really appreciate a few screenshots of the Duke as I am just on the edge of getting MS2024.

Thanks mate.....That is sure a beautiful aircraft 🙂

Here is my other Go to GA aircraft, besides the Duke, SWS Pilatus PC12. I only fly these two now. 

 

As you can see, I love red in the aircraft.

Great pictures. Inspired me to go back and fly the Duke these past couple of days -- doing CYXU to KRFD right now.  But I always choose blue aircraft!

What really I really like about SWS is they don't give up on their aircraft....

How has the PC-12 come along. I was quite interested in it when it came out but all the conflicting reviews caused me to hold off. How is its flight model now? And how is its system depth?

Flight model is excellent in my opinion, like flying a real aircraft. Systems depth has impressed many real PC 12 pilots.
