King Air C90B just dropped, and just when you thought Carenado couldn't get any better: MIND BLOWN!

This plane is incredible! And a much needed FSX airplane. Flight model will take some getting used to, the turbines definitely like to spool and if you aren't keeping an eye on it, vertical speed can get out of control. Besides those two issues (after ~1hr of flying, so my opinion might change later), neither of which are any knock on the airplane, everything is great. Flies very well, sound is great, performance impact is minimal (seriously, how do they do it?! I wish my flight1 mustang could perform like this!)

If you want a twin turboprop, don't hesitate! $40 is a bit pricey, but it's worth it. I think I'll get a lot of flying out of this one if I can keep away from my Mustang...

Virtual cockpit looks great! And the night lighting, boy...stay tuned Wink

Good thing it has working windshield wipers!

Pretty, well, for a Beechcraft Tongue

It has weather radar, but I chose to ignore it

The cabin is incredible! Psssst...Carenado....business jets in your future? Pretty please!

So is it just the one model version or does it also have multiple versions of the 90?

Thanks for the compliments guys Wink

To answer the questions:

skoker: No, just the C90B in a handful of paint jobs. There's two military paints but the plane is the same

BlackAce: It's Beech Wink

and I'll make an exception for a King Air Grin
