    You kind of identified it yourself, piston engines are internal combustion engines (often now called ICE), some of which have turbo charging, ie just a method of increasing power inside the ICE. Turbine engines are essentially jet engines (albeit with a propeller attached in some cases as against a pure jet), ie a turbine not a piston as its basis of operation. Jet engines operate differently from ICE  in terms of controls and offer better power but generally are slower to respond to power changes compared to ICE.

     

    The simplist explanation I've ever heard. Makes sense now. Thanks mate!

  2. From what I've seen on YouTube, particularly Easyjet simpilot, it looks like you can vary your own experience in the settings. You can automate some responses etc. By the looks of it you don't need to be an ATC expert to use it. I'm seriously considering it :)

    Nice view. And it took me some time to discover the plane, a fitting camouflage!

    Now that's what I call a "dirty plane," my favorite kind.  Love it, Graeme. Thanks!

    Just fantastic...

    Thanks for comment gents. The high rollers in their executive jets weren’t impressed :)

  4. Thank you for this Rodger. A few years ago I discovered this site and downloaded their aircraft and some sceneries - Then had a software catastrophe and had to reinstall everything. I could not remember where I sourced my STOL aircraft from and completely forgot about them until you provided the site. THANK YOU!!! My hanger is full of my fave planes again. Posted one rusty one on the screenshot section today :(
