Anything we can help you with to get you back on board the SWS PC12?

I am currently on a round-the-world tour with it and have yet to experience anything unpleasant.

Probably not currently. I've put simulation on the back burner and ventured a tad more into woodworking and setting up my shop. Soon, I will give the PC12 another shot. Looking forward to their updates first more likely. Does it work in 2024?

The inclusion of the "simple" JPL 152 made me think...

I'm gonna really stretch the definition of "GA" and throw 2 stunningly well executed add-ons into the ring:

the Just Flight Hawk 

and

the MilViz T-6A Texan II

Now, of course, they're both trainers for military Aviators and not GA, but the trainer aspect is exactly why they should be considered.

The experience they provide in developing and maintaining "pure" flying skills, coupled with the extremely high fidelity with which they're executed (e.g., BBS nee MilViz developed the T-6 and T-38 (among others) expressly for the govts virtual training programs), mean that much of what constitutes "GA" flying is intrinsically present in these two add-ons.

Anyone who enjoys a well executed turboprop or light jet would be well served with trying either one of these in for size.

Oh we love the JP 152!

  • What about the Cows DA42? I think that’s decent enough. I do like the Dukes a lot though. 

  • An often forgotten but really good GA aircraft for MSFS 2020 is the Just Flight PA-28 Tomahawk. This little trainer is pretty exceptional, and they added fully support for the TDS GTN and the PMS GTN.

  • The Dukes are great, but the A2A Comanche still has an edge in the area of engine modeling. There's some aspects in the Duke here that are slightly off, even after the 1.1 update. For example, there a

I just purchased the PC12, today and already did four flights with it. It is a great  aircraft, and between it and the Kodiak, I think I am going to put the tubeliners on the back burner for awhile, having too much fun with the GA aircraft again.
