I purchased the FS Charter Turbo Commander, at http://www.fscharter.com/Home.htm and found the model, FDE, panels, and paints to be okay, but the VC was awful.  Anyone else experience this?  To find out why the VC was neglected, I sent the following email to the support team at FS Chater.  If anyone else has input on this payware, I would be interested in hearing about it.  I am not looking for a complaining fest, just curious about peoples opinions, good or bad.

FS Charter team,



After purchasing your Turbo Commander and loading into FS9, I couldn't wait to try it out.



Once I got into the cockpit, I saw the 2D panel, and then went to the virtual cockpit and thought," Oh my... everything is blurry!"  Being a novice at editing panels, I opened the panel.cfg to increase the resolution, and found that the engine gauges, the overhead switches and flying gauges were okay, but the rest of the panel was blurry.  I couldn't tell what frequency I was on, or what anything else was. Then looking around the cockpit and cabin, I found the textures to be low resolution and not very interesting at all.



Please take this as constructive criticism incase you are thinking about updating the model, textures, and gauges.  I can see a lot of work went into this project and I hate to see it fall short of its potential. Maybe I am comparing apples and oranges, but your Commander VC ($24.95) compared to the PMDG Beech 1900 VC ($15.00 U.S.) doesn't stand up to it.  I feel I got more quality out of the PMDG VC than yours. 



The outside textures are okay, the sounds are great, and the flight dynamics are wonderful!  May I ask why put so much into it, just to blow off the interior?  We are going for the total experience right? 



Please, tell me I have the wrong interior files, or that you will promise to revisit the interior of your Turbo Commander.  If I missed something in the manual when installing it, and all of this can be fixed easily, then forgive me.  I am confident though that I am not the only one who feels this way. If this aircraft was intended for low-end computers, then please create one for us individuals that have high-end computers.  We like the details...



Thank you for reading to my request.  I am looking forward to your response and all future updates you may make to the Turbo Commander.



Sincerely,



Kevin Jessee

Codred, why did you waste yer cash on a payware turbo commander when Milton Shupe had designed several excellent Commander models that he doesn't charge a dime for?????
