Explore New Zealand in a C90!

Recommended Posts

So yesterday I bought Carenado's C90 King Air because it has GTN capability.  It's an ok plane but gets the job done.  I'd love a newer King Air without an FMS.

 

Sorry for so many.  I did some exploring then landed.  Ya'll know from where to where I'm sure.

Nice little plane for you & family, Jack...

 

For Milford Sound you can tick the static airliners in the control panel. No harm on the performance.

Hi Gerold, I looked a few minutes ago and everything was ticked.  I wonder if there's problem?

The Beech King Air C90 is one of my favorite aircraft, and the only one of the entire series with Garrett engines ....

Thanks Ted!  It's not as sophisticated as an A2A but it gets the job done.  It's a lot different than the other King Airs, it seems a lot more rounder or squat if you know what I mean.  But I like it.

yes the A2A aircraft are in terms of handling flight dynamics, etc. unrivaled but I also like the Carenado and Alabeo planes

Nice addition to your hanger Jack, the C90GTX is my favorite KA, anyway, you show her well! :)

Thanks Adam, I'd love a newer King Air with the winglets.  But no FMS.  I have enough FMS equipped planes.

Beautiful set Jack and great to see you adding some more planes to your hangar.:D

It is always handy to have a choice of planes to suit the mood.;)

No need to tell you that SI is a magnificent place to fly, is there!:lol:

Thanks Martyn!  Yes, but if I have too many I get stressed out, too many choices make me anxious.  And yeah, South Island is amazing, unlike any other Orbx area to be sure.  I hope they make some more airports for NZ.

Thanks John, Orbx makes it look beautiful, I was just exploring the scenery which is amazing.  What a great escape in this hobby of ours.

 

Yes, Jack....why are so many travel agencies disappearing in the streets....?

They have become superfluous since Orbx is available....;-)

 

Cheers Fred
