Rupert Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 That is sweet!! Reminds of when I really wanted to meet Sky's niece Penny! Michael Yes, I do realize it's not made by Beech but even being larger, it has a very similar appeal! Simpler times!! Being an old chopper guy I usually fly low and slow.

Downwind66 Posted August 22, 2020 Author Share Posted August 22, 2020 Thanks David and Michael! Only 2 of these left flying! I believe 17 total were produced! Rick :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidN16 Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 This plane looked so nice I downloaded after checking out on Wiki, which said that only 22 were built and it can cruise at 350 mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downwind66 Posted August 22, 2020 Author Share Posted August 22, 2020 (edited) David, you're very close to what I read! I found a YouTube video, an owner of one of the two still flying today! He said 17 built, and he did mention the 300+ mph airspeeds. It is a nice aircraft. Where did you download yours from? There air several repaints for this aircraft on this site. Here is one of the 4 that I have. It is my favorite! It's large, it's fast and it's very forgiving being that it is a taildragger! And, today, a new one I just found, had to have it!:rolleyes: Rick :cool: Edited August 22, 2020 by Downwind66 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NMLW Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 A very nice choice Rick. I've got several Howard 500s. Milton did a great job when he built that one. :cool: :cool::) Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downwind66 Posted August 23, 2020 Author Share Posted August 23, 2020 You got that right Larry! Everytime I get bored, I go in on the library (as I did today) and I find a new paint/livery. I get excited, download it, as if I need another aircraft, but hey, it's nice for a change. You and I aren't the only ones out there that have enjoyed what Milton has given us! Thanks Larry! And you too, Milton and staff! Rick :cool::cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidN16 Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 (edited) Rick, I got the one posted at rikoooo.com. I added a "call out" gauge co-pilot to the panel and took it up for a couple of short hops around my local town. I use FsPassenger when flying and this bird is costing between $4 to $5 million. That's about all the extra cash I have at this time, so I am looking for a used one with some more miles on it to be offered to me via the FsPassenger market place. I will have this one in a few days added in to my fleet. The package I downloaded had 16 repaints some were cargo models and I kept 10 of the passenger models. I will buy which ever passenger model I can purchase for around $2 million. Edited August 23, 2020 by DavidN16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Downwind66 Posted August 24, 2020 Author Share Posted August 24, 2020 Thanks Robin! Maybe when I "thin out the herd" a little on what I already have. I keep adding to the 500, as the newer paints keep coming and I keep adding! When the 350 came out, I didn't think there would be that much difference from the 500? And, these are very large downloads! Have a nice day! Rick :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
