Beautiful airplane, I bought the FSD Cessna 'Skysmasher' package when it was on sale a few months back. My favorite twin ever!

Hi Adam...

I do not like the way Carenado does their radios.

You have to click on the Tuning Knob and scroll half way across the screen to change settings.

I prefer just clicking on the Tuning Knob + or - symbols, much more accurate and easier...

Thanks for the comments... Wink

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

It was on sale again not too long ago. Picked it over this one cause I was really after the O-2 model.

Nice set o' shots! Wish the FSD VC looked that good. It is passable though, just not a work of art like Carenado's.

I love the smell of radials in the morning!
