Would you download a high quality Beechcraft Duchess made for FS2002? I am getting ready to start my first project with FSDS2 (first since the original FSDS) and want to know if this is something others would be interested in.

3.20GHz Processor
8GB of RAM (expandable to 32GB)

Here's a site that shows one.

I wouldn't mind having one. With only one light twin (Baron) that's an area where FS2002 is lacking.

I also found this while looking for pictures:

The answer is pretty obvious BE!!

Though who would bother to vote 'no' is beyond me. Roll Eyes

Not because everyone will want it (there is NO download everyone wants) but actually taking the time to click no!!! Roll Eyes

I guarantee you'll have a good reception with even a basic Dutchess.

Though I would ask this --- why would whether people wanted it or not influence your decision?

If you put it out there I doubt it will be overlooked.

I think Pete is right. I have not voted either way as I have no interest in this type of aircraft. What I have never understood is why this would influence your or any other amateur designer's decision to go right ahead & do it? ???

In my experience most FS designers create stuff they have a particular affection for. The main motive is for their own enjoyment & satisfaction. I suggest you make an immediate start. If it turns out as you hope it can then be uploaded for others to enjoy. Wink

Yeah i've seen that, its a nicely done model. Well worth the download. Mine has been put off a bit due to 4 other projects that i have been doing/helping on.

Why you ask? Because there are a lot of G.A. aircraft that people want, and no one has built. I myself prefer G.A. over airliners and military, so I am looking at those that haven't been made and finding out if they are something others would want.

You do know that this will mean I will probably asking a lot of stupid questions in the design forum. Wink
