andiflyit Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Hi all, this is the Aerocommander 500 "Shrike" taking off at Key West. This was how it all started with these aircraft series and the Aerocommander 690B I used in my shots at Valdez was one of the latest. Production ended in 1985 with approx. 2000 total (Wikipedia). Watch that road on the left side with all the palms...it's wonderful. Thank you very much for viewing! Cheers Andreas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the long run they will adjust most of the aircraft for MSFS, only a question of time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olderndirt Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Ted Smith was a genius designer based in Bethany Oklahoma. The Aero Commander became a jet finally produced in Israel but the rest went to Rockwell and the great Robert Hoover showed us what the plane could do.

If it flies similar to the simulator in reallife, both the 500 and the 690, than it's outstanding aircraft. Didn't find any comment why they stopped the production in 1985.
