Remember the 50-50-90 rule. Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90% probability you'll get it wrong!

I was flying around in FS9 last night setting it up again - four cycles around Pueto Rico while adjusting everything that i'm familar with in FSX .. bloody ell its a rocket .. i don't have a King Air for any off the sim but a modern PC makes FS9 a good alternative ..... and what the heck thousands of dollar worth of addon back in action cool.gif

DO I need another King Air??
I mean, I have the Aeroworx offering which even today will knock the spots off most payware.
Nah...

WILL I buy the Carenado C90?
You bet your socks!
When a developer gets it right the way Carenado does, it's a no-brainer.
They just hit the sweet spot in so many ways, and prove that you can do (amazing) stuff in FS9, after all these years.

Ian, as you point out, with a halfway decent computer you get the most astonishingly smooth performance, no CTD, no this no that, no issues.
200 AI planes at something like EDDF, filthy weather in Active Sky, AES, GE Pro, whatever... it just gets munched.
Even my Warbird sim install has gotten some pretty big flocks and scenery density now, just no problem.

Thanks for the HU Cowpatz.

Now released - always a kick when a new FS9 plane arrives, there aren't that many left to do, really!
Beautifully modelled hi-res:



Rivets, exhausts... Carenado does a great job on these models

That is as good as FSX and with a kick arse FPS as well I guess.
