Hi guys,

Wanting a good freeware Piper Tomahawk, anybody know of a model for FS2004, keen to repaint in our local Aero Club livery.

Hope someone can help with a recommendation.

Carenado does a free one, its quite good.

Thanks for that, I will check it out again, had a feeling it was only for FS2002, and last time I reied it it crashed my sim.

Justflight's one is my favourite. Payware but well worth it!

Andrew,

Thanks for the reply, I already have the Just Flight Tomahawk myself, but was just looking for a freeware model I could repaint and give a friend.

I managed to finaly get the Carenado one to work in fs9 but I don't recomend it, its so unrealistic, it climbs more like a jet than a PA38, I had my introductry flight in a tomahawk and I can tell you it didnt climb at over 100kias! lol

I am not aware of any other freeware ones eathier..

Haha I didnt pay much attention to the flight dynamics, though I believe you james. One annoyance about the Carenado model is that even with the engine stopped, the propellor is invisible. :blink:

Hi Rob

There is a new freeware Tomahawk model uploaded on Avsim a few weeks ago (try piper_tomahawk.zip). It is just about as good as the Just Flight model although the exterior shape does not quite look right to me otherwise the VC, panel, flight dynamics etc are good.

Cheers

I dont know, I fly JNE a bit around WLG, that climbs at about 100kts!

Mate, a Tomahawk in a dive wouldn't make 100 knots.
