F406 Caravan first impressions
Nice review! A quick note on the cowl flaps, they control oil cooling doors to managae your oil temp and yes they actually are called cowl flaps in the real plane.

So, Carenado is developing an F406
Having flown these for thousands of hours in Alaska, I'm really looking forward to this one. And yes - I have been talking to Carenado.

FSX Crash PMDG 737 NGX
Do you have FSUIPC installed? I just completed a new build and the first plane I installed was the NGX, which crashed everytime I ended a flight. I then installed FSUIPC (registered version) and the sim behaves beautifully now.

The Polar Vortex
When I flew out of Barrow, AK we would suspend operations at -40C only because Jet A would start jelling around that temp. We had lengthy discussions with our chief pilot and operations manager who pointed out that the POH has a minimum fuel temp of -56C, however when our fuel provider was reporting jelling at -42C we decided that was enough!

King Air drains backup fuel tanks first
Thats normal, it burns fuel from the AUXILLIARY tanks first, then the main tanks.
-
Fuel System
There is no switching between tanks. The nacelle tanks feed the engines and the main tanks transfer into the nacelle tanks. You can check the quantity of either main or nacelle by using the selector switch between the gauges, the system works as it should, I suggest you red Kurt's tutorial.

Turbine airplane wanted
The only one that comes close is the Flight1 King Air B200. Updateble Navigraph G1000 with WAAS, realistic FDE, excellent model and textures, and realistic systems including penalties for not operating it correctly.
- PMDG Express Beechcraft 1900C

Turboprop/Light Jet Suggestion
-Majestic Dash 8 Q400 -Flight1 King Air B200 -If you want the best rendition of a GA plane, then it would be worth looking into the new RealAir Duke B60 v2 I don't think these have 2d panels, very few do nowadays, but their vc's are exceptional and the systems modeling are very accurate.

PMDG 777-222 Liveries
Does the Ops Center support third party liveries or only official ones from PMDG?

PMDG 737 NGX
I run the NGX just fine on my first generation i7 LAPTOP @1.73 GHz with ORBX scenery and Aerosoft Anchorage with UTII traffic at 100%. I usually get 28-30 fps with the sliders set to very dense.

Q400 or NGX
Personally I prefer apples to oranges

The Time for a GA has arrived !
I'm surprised nobody mentioned the Carenado C337 Skymaster. Out of the half dozen or so GA planes I have, this one seems to always be my goto plane. It looks fantastic, has decent speed for covering large areas yet you can get it pretty slow to look around and it has an exceptional view out the cockpit with the wings above and behind you. It has a decent FDE bhy Mr. Stolle and the systems are ok

DCS World offers third party SDK now..
I think a Boeing E-3 would be the perfect PMDG entry into DCS World. Imagine being able to fly a PMDG quality Boeing in that environment!
