NOTICE: Using a Beta or Release Candidate (RC) X-Plane version? Please don't contact us about model problems, unless you are just passing along the information. Betas and RC don't have all of their features enabled and are, by definition, buggy so we can not make any changes until the final, stable XP version is released. If you have the disc space, we strongly recommend that you keep at least one recent stable version of X-Plane installed in addition to any such Betas.
Pilatus PC-12
I'm really digging this PC-12 version.
I'm an aerospace engineer, specializing in aircraft performance. I just wrapped up a PC-12 project which required digitizing some of the POH performance. I just spent an hour or so comparing the simulated performance climb, cruise, and descent performance against POH values and must say, I'm impressed with how close things track the POH values. I have not yet looked at field performance, but will try to get to that tomorrow.
Overall, very nice job in every respect! Well, well worth the cost in my opinion. And so much fun to fly because of the realism modeled!.

Aviat Husky
Thanks for the great conversion of the Aviat Husky, it is the best aircraft release
that i know for X-Plane! The model and the cockpit are very well made and it
flies fantastic.

Aviat Husky
I just got around to checking out your Husky and it's simply a beautiful model.
X-Plane designers have come a long way since I first starting toying around back in V6. This model is
worth every last cent! Thank you for your work, and providing several different models to boot!

Thank You!
Thanks for all of the timely updates and for taking your time out to make a
modification like this to help those out who were unhappy with the reflections. I love them myself
but you RARELY see anyone give you the best of both worlds.
Keep up the good work and with these speedy recent updates you have a customer for life in me! :)

Glass Objects
Hi Peter and Jim, just wanted to let you know that the new glass
object works PERFECTLY! I no longer have the tearing like before and everything is great.
Thank you so much for making the extra effort to fix it. This is one of my favorite planes and it's great to have it working properly.
And Peter, keep up the great work on those liveries! They're really beautiful and add a lot to the plane.
Cheers and thanks again,
Matt

HangarOps
Everything is working well. I have just programmed some keyboard
commands as you suggested and boy is this easy and fun to do. Sure makes parking a lot
easier. ( wanders off into dream-- wonder if I can do something similar to help park the
car in the driveway ..... )

Super Cub
I can't say enough good things about this plane. I have a private
pilot license and a flew a 1946, 90 hp, Piper Cub, 30 years ago and this model seems to
be so true to my memories of that flying experience. Well done! I love the 3-D cockpit
and the way that I can switch viewing angles so quickly and easily, almost like the real
deal. I also logged quite a few hours in a Cessna 182, so after the Cub, I also bought
the Skylane model. I know is slightly older model, but still another great plane.
Keep up the good work.
Best Regards
Thomas Buckman
