Just released by Premier Aircraft Design...the Beech 99.
A classic aircraft that operated in NZ with Bell Air in Whakatane and later Tranzair. There was also one that operated a night freight operation based out of Auckland.
Can anyone remember the registration of it? I think it began with a J.
I would love to get some local repaints for this.
The model is represented well but a little lacking in texture detail.
I also need to tinker with the air file as I find the PAD aircraft a little unrealistic in some flight regimes.

Was it ZK-CIB operated by Air Chatams?

Nope not that one. I didn't know Air Chathams had one. This one was operated by Beechcraft NZ for a freight operator. It more or less started the whole night freight/courier business.
