Hilo all
To all you in the know and up with the play, pleas point me in the right direction.

Are there any good payware, GOOD, cheyenne 400LS aut there ? The ultimate in turbo prop weapons, I know of the aerosoft xl but definately after the 400LS or something similar, garrett powered. On that i was very close to purchasing the flight 1 conquest untill i saw a vid of the start. Unfortunately it is nothing like the normal start of a garrett and neither is the sound. Just sounds like the defult king air.
In fact any good garret powered payware out there would be worth a look because I have yet to come across a good one.

Also after a 737NG with as much of the real goodies as poss (like the level D 767), I know there are a few out there, to people who have them, your thoughts ??
A tripple 7, same reqs as above.
A merlin or metro.
And of course, the mighty L188 electra, or perhaps an orion if I have to.

Im gonna do a small spend up (maybe 2 tongue.gif ) on some decent payware but gotta choose the right ones first.


Not after 2mb download rubbish here, as close to the real ones as pos.

Thanks for your help !!

The only REALLY GOOD turboprops are the Aeroworx Super King Air, the Aerosoft/Da Piper Cheyenne, Flight 1 ATR and Captain Sim C-130 (I have 3 out of 4 of those) ... the only 400LS model is FSDs but its pretty old and you are probably better off with the above mentioned....

.....but you could wait and see if FSDs not yet released Mu-2 would meet your criteria and has Garretts. Check their web site out. Its looking pretty good but you may have to wait a while.

FSDs other turboprops are getting on a bit now and they aren't as system orientated as the Aeroworx & DA A/C.

As for the other a/c I tend to avoid most jets...

Cheers Naki, yea I have the ATR which is great. As for the MU2, I saw the vid on the other thread, and well, again, the sound !! Non garrett like, unless they change for the propper release.
Haven't come across a good electra in your travels have you ??

737NG -
The PMDG is amazing, and you'll not regret a purchase of it for a moment. It's for FS9 only however, though they are working on 737NGX. PMDG here

Release.......ha. That page has been like that for quite some time now. "Screenshots coming soon!".....I'm not holding my breath.

But when it's released, I'll be there 1st customer. The FS9 version is excellent, although I've kinda forgot how to fly it because I haven't been on FS9 lately...what with recently upgrading to FSX and having an exchange student living with us.....I don't want her to think I'm too geeky!
