I'm quite proud of myself, I managed to put off buying this until I could use Paypal (Carenado take credit cards only, and mine is on a long-term break) and sure enough there it was this morning on Simmarket.
Just one flight so far, probably amongst one of the most immersive flights ever, though. Right from loading it up at Hokitika, with the engine sounds, I swear I actually could smell the fuel as I walked across the tarmac. Rather than read the manual, I decided on a quick VFR to Christchurch.
Honestly, the more I see of Prepar3D, the more impressed I am, and this aircraft just adds to the realism.
