Love the plane, but the loading of the plane is incredibly frustrating. Seems the tablet is the only way to configure weights, and their selections are fictitious to say the least. Is there a way we can edit the tablet weights?.. And for that matter it would be nice if the tablet would allow the user to set the weights, as opposed to per-selected numbers.

Why is that?

That is good news. instant buy when they make it. And it's not just speed, but useful load. My typical family haul is unavailable in the M500.. Heck it can barley fit me and a friend with enough juice/suite cases to go anywhere.

Well I did my control sensitivities when I installed MSFS, and haven't touched them sense. This plane, Flightsimware C414, and the Just Flight Piper Arrow III, have incredible feel and control... but have to admit the C414 and the Piper are the best on the ground, take off roll, and flight. I should add the A2A Piper to that list as well.. I just don't like the panel view in the A2A... Never feel "square" to the panel in that thing.

Great plane, but curious why they didn't pick the far better M600.

Great plane. I enjoy it very much.. but once again, the lesser model was chosen to produce. Why not make the far better M600? I've seen this with other studios, and it's rather baffling. I think most would understand the M600 model without the auto land feature, which is what I think scared FSReborn away form the M600. I would hope you would consider the far faster, and better useful load M600 in the future.

1.) Pick a realistic GA Aircraft (Single Pilot Cert. Only) that can carry you and your family/friends to all the away games of your favorite team. 2.) Plan to arrive at least three hours before game time. 3.) Use only the plane you picked for first flight for all flights. 4.) Use real weather. Use real time (no slewing). Flight can be flown after the game with historic weather. 5.) IFR or VFR. If VFR, stick to all the VFR limits, including restricted air space rules, MOA's, etc. 6.) Post Pics and flight plan in the gallery after the flight. 7.) Airport should be as close to the stadium as possible. 8.) Return flight next day or after game. My first flight will be Washington Redskins vs. NY Giants, Sep 25th @ 1pm EST. Because the Mid Atlantic is such a cluster, most, if not all of my flights, will be IFR. I have a London game this year too, so that is a major trip. Not sure who I would drag along.. Consider who you would take, and the realistic probability that they would go.. this is not meant to be akin to a "Virgin Atlantic" comfort trip, but something you can own and operate. With that in mind, I have three planes in mind for me; Duke Turbine or TBM 850 (The Car). PC-12 (The Mini Van), or the KA-200/350 (The bus). First trip plan: 22,000 ft, IFR. Wheels up @ 8am. KHEF. CSN. LDN. MRB. EMI. PTW. SBJ. KTEB

This one is the one I use, very very good! (freeware, with a "Plus" version with a very small donation). Updates throughout the year for both versions. http://hawaii-photoreal.com/

Thank you... I should add that the pop ups can be added without changing the motor in any way for those who want original performance.

Write up in the Alabeo forum.

Auto Pilot and GPS pop ups: This will change all C195 aircraft. What you need: Carenado B200 installed (we use the 530 GPS from her) 1. go to FSX main/Gauges and COPY THIS FILE (select, right mouse click, COPY) "GPS530_3D_B200.CAB" 2. go to FSX main/SimObjects/Airplanes/Alabeo C195_BusinessLiner/panel and PASTE that file in there. 3. open panel.cfg and add the following (MAKE A COPY BEFORE EDITING): under [Window Titles] add: Window03=GPS Window04=Auto Pilot now scroll down and add the following BELOW/AFTER [Window02] and BEFORE [Vcockpit01] //-------------------------------------------------------- [Window03] Background_color=8,8,8 size_mm=524,378 visible=0 ident=10000 window_size= 0.310, 0.370 window_pos= 0.550, 0.160 no_luminous=1 zorder=7 gauge00=GPS530_3D_B200!GPS_530, 0,0,520,378 //-------------------------------------------------------- [Window04] Background_color=0,0,0 size_mm=348,219 position=0 visible=0 ident=796 window_size= 0.290, 0.290 window_pos= 0.020, 0.190 gauge06=Bendix_King_Radio!Bendix-King Radio AP, 0,0 //-------------------------------------------------------- 4. go to FSX main/SimObjects/Airplanes/Alabeo C195_BusinessLiner - and make a copy of the aircraft.cfg file... this is your back up. open aircraft.cfg in the [piston_engine] section, change the following: max_rated_hp= 350 turbocharged= 1 /was 0 max_design_mp= 30 /was 0 min_design_mp= 0 /no change critical_altitude= 7000 /was 0 5. AFTER the [exits] section ADD this entire code: [autopilot] autopilot_available= 1 flight_director_available= 0 default_vertical_speed= 700.0 autothrottle_available= 0 pitch_takeoff_ga=8.0 max_pitch=10.0 max_pitch_acceleration=1.0 max_pitch_velocity_lo_alt=2.0 max_pitch_velocity_hi_alt=1.5 max_pitch_velocity_lo_alt_breakpoint=20000.0 max_pitch_velocity_hi_alt_breakpoint=28000.0 max_bank=25.0 max_bank_acceleration=1.0 max_bank_velocity=3.00 max_throttle_rate=0.10 nav_proportional_control=18 nav_integrator_control=0.20 nav_derivative_control=2.0 nav_integrator_boundary=2.00 nav_derivative_boundary=2.00 gs_proportional_control=14 gs_integrator_control=0.26 gs_derivative_control=0.00 gs_integrator_boundary=0.70 gs_derivative_boundary=0.00 yaw_damper_gain=0.000000 save How To Fly: Take off full throttle and full prop... after lift off, back throttle to 25 mp, and 2000 RPM for climb (it will get super hot if you don't). cruse at 25 mp and 1900 rpm. Speeds are 170 to 180 kts @ 9000 ft. In this config, she is a respectable mountain flyer. Enjoy!

FSX in DX10 with a sun mod. There are a couple sun mods in the library. Inside shadows and sun flares only work in DX10. Look in the DX10 section here to catch up on that amazing aspect of FSX.

There are two rocker covered switches on the upper panel. Flip them open and make sure the switches are UP. the cover will close automatically: then make sure the fuel valves are OPEN as well. Set your fuel mixtures to about HALF. Your start up will work now. here is a vid for the 520, but is the same for the 500 as well:

Carenado Updated this plane to 2.0 - you have to re-dload it and copy the new Prokey from your account details at carenado
