I'm looking for a good payware prop airplane, one or two engines preferably. I'm considering the Carenado Cessna 210, is that a good one?

Thanks

Any Carenado product is great, here is another great AC I just picked up from Eaglesoft:

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Do you know anything about the Just Flight G-44 Widgeon?

To be honest looking at the screenies on the just flight page, visually its not up to payware specs. You might be better off looking into a freeware version and save your cash for a more complex payware offering.

Thats just my opinion, and I have never owned that AC Wink

That's what I figured, unfortunately, by looking at the screenshots. I've never done payware before though, so I wanted to check.

Despite what I've observed, I'm still drawn to the G-44... is there anything else like it out there? Similar size airplanes even?

I don't know what size you're looking for, but...

The Aerosoft Twin Otter is a very nice turboprop (be aware NO 2D PANEL)

Never head a complaint about the F1 PC12 either though.

Hope this helps, Ferrari

The RealAir scout package is really great. You get three airplanes many different paints, and several variants of the Scout itself. Included in the package are the Citabria, Decathlon, Scout (floats, tundra tires, and regular tires).

All great airplanes to fly and very realistic.

The day is always better when you're flying upside down.&&&&www.fight2flyphoto.com&&&&Canon RebelXT&&Canon 18-55mm&&Sigma 10-20mm F/4-6.3&&Sigma 100-300mm F/4-6.3&&Sigma 50-500mm F/4-6.3
