Anyone know a good source of Fedex Cessna Caravan routes, other than maybe FlightAware?  Or is that the best place?

They often fly as FedEx feeders.  For northern US I would check flightware for the three letters IRO (Iron Air) or CPT (Air Spur).  These typically operate in North and South Dakota, MN, WI, MI.

There's also CPT in Hawaii I noticed but some are flying 408s now.  Not exactly sure what their telephony is in Hawaii.

I found this map but very dated that might help

Here's a more recent map for CSA air

Try googling Fedex Purple Runway...  I think they list their feeder airlines...and there's a map with points that you could definitely compare with Google maps or skyvector

I wouldn't expect one. The analog was mostly systems, not much eye candy. So the model (interior and exterior) is all new. The systems have been heavily updated, so that I would guess there is little common code between the analog version and this one. I personally don't mind buying it again, given that it's basically a new model.

P.S.: nevermind, I just read that there will be a discount above. Thanks 🥰

so this is not the default Caravan with a correct panel? but rather a complete own exterior model as well?

I'll be curious to see if it gets the nuances of the Caravan really well.  

Trim every time the flaps move.  If it's a decent left to right crosswind on the water, there isn't enough rudder to hold it straight, it will weathervane into the wind at takeoff power regardless of what you do.  Holding the elevator trim in the flare to not run out of back pressure.  Fuel imbalances ALL THE TIME.  Parking it on non-level ground, and forgetting the fuel tanks and having it all drain to one side.  Full reverse on the ground, and the rudder blanks and it feels super uncomfortable.  Icing not being it's friend at all.  Stuff like that.

Could be fun!
