Nice ones Terry, That A320 looks cool!

Be aware Terry, if you break CAA Rules, you will end up getting hefty fines or imprisonment

, although its just FSX, CAA Rules don't really matter in FSX, its just a simulator

Yeah sorry about that

Still fly it lots but you guys are probably sick of the old Majestic Q300 and I find the new Q400 quite tricky!

Would you happen to know how the Carenado version compares with the Majestric Q400

Ok - In terms of realisim, both are extremely real - but I find the 1900 so much easier to handle, the Q400 is so touchy on landing - throttlewise anyway

thats just what I found for me anyway

Maybe thats why they have two pilots.
