venomvixen Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Hi I like to fly around the world every year by starting at my home airfield and following the coast line ( with a few long over water flights) until I get back home again. I have been using Milton Shupe's superb Howard 500 but its getting a bit same ol and I'd like to try something different. I have been looking at Just Flight Piper Senneca and the Beech King Air C90 but I would very much like to know what you guys think.

Dwaffler Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 I've been flying around in the Alabeo Cessna 441. Very nice plane, and can go very long distances. I flew one time from SW Alaska to NW Washington state, which took about 10 hours. She has a range of around 2500nm, and has a ceiling of 35000 ft.

PhantomTweak Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 If it were me, I'd go with the latest DC-3 from Manfred Jahn. Heck of a plane, and flies really nicely. It's available in the library. I think I've seen a thread on adding a ferry tank in it instead of cargo, but I can't find it now... Have fun! Pat☺ [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Had a thought...then there was the smell of something burning, and sparks, and then a big fire, and then the lights went out! I guess I better not do that again!

mallcott Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Why a twin? Engines get in the way of the view, unless it's a high-wing twin. In FSX there's no danger of engine failure and unless you're up to speed on engine out procedures you're likely to crash anyway! I would use a single turboprop like a Pilatus PC 12 or TBM 850. For a twin if you must there's always the range of Very Light Jets - Mustang or Phenom, and if you intend to land on grass, the Pilatus PC-24.
