i had a look at it,i wonder do you have it and fly it?..judt looking at the install instructions,,id say id pass on it and wait for the carenado unit..i like there aircraft anyway.

[Jafo]

Has the usual glass/prop/cloud issues....but there are definitely worse things out there....;)

I took a look as well because it sounded familiar. . .it's one of many nice aircraft done by Premier Aircraft Design.
By the way, what was it about the installation that caused you to pass. . .it's no different than any other aircraft addon?

Holy moly,
I fear this will be a must have for me.
Have seen one of these a few times the last days over my workingplays, flying some nice curves over the runway.
Hopefully it won't be too expensive....

[bruce448]

As much as I like the aircraft, the cockpit shots are a kind of hybrid, the Dornier 228 is a hands on aircraft with no autopilot and steam guages, where as the latest incarnation the Do228NG does have an autopilot or weather radar as an optional extra but it also has a glass cockpit as standard.

[YoYo]

Really soon!

Other than the stupid white box light syndrome in P3Dv3, first runs weren't too bad. I like it. Still digging on what causes the light issue.

I'm asking to see if of one you repainters. Could put an American reg. on the white d0228. Thanks for your time

[Daube]

I'm almost tempted to get it, because I love that plane and for once, Carenado chose a version WITHOUT glass cockpit !
But 40 dollars... What new features did Carenado add to their planes compared to older models ?
Realistic turbo-prop engine handling ?
Failures/tear/wear ?
Realistic startup procedures and avionics ?
Or is it still in the Carenado traditional style, which means "like a default aircraft, but with a nicer shape and a nice flight model" ?

[kiki]

The choice of the liveries will be very limited. Am I right?

It does look temptung. Im just a little confused as to what is being modeled. What am I getting for the $40? Systems etc? One thing personally, I feel like for $40 I should be getting a paint kit with PSD's at the least since many devs who charge less provide these. Not just the blank texture, but that's my opinion. The blank texture is not ideal to work with and extremely limiting. My while issue with the Alabeo/Carenado product is that for $10 more I'm into either VRS, A2A, or Milviz territory. A product is worth what people will pay for it I suppose. I'm just flabbergasted when I read their Facebook page....same people, same deer in the headlight praise and then same complaints....over and over and over. As always it's interior/exterior visuals are impecable. No Glass, so it should be an FPS lightweight...hopefully!

I'm with you Rick. Many people (including myself) want eye candy, (but I want more hehe).

But, as I always say with Carenado, modelling and textures looks amazing (TM)

Monk beautiful work. Hope it will be ready for download soon. Again thank you.

[Fireball6]

Finished two more today. Also reworked the interior - grey panels and seats. Unfortunately Carenado had mirrored the Underwing-textures, so it is not possible to add a Underwing-Registration to the euopean Repaints. Maybe they will update this - we will see ...... :mixed-smiley-010:

[Ferry_vO]

For that amount of money I would have expected at least a dedicated model for the Dutch Coast Guard livery, that included the sensor equipment... :mixed-smiley-010:

Side sensors look the same in Finnish version. A large radome under the belly differiates from Dutch version.

Here are a few pic's of the reworked interior - nothing special, but you have a choice now ...

Hi Fireball6

Good job on the interior. For some reason, I really like light blue panels on my aircraft. Any chance of doing one in light blue or pass on the secrets on how to do it?

Many thanks for your work.

First reworked paints and interior are ready to go - if you want them, please send me a pm. Below are the available paints.

There is nothing special with the change of the interior-color, simple color-reduce of the blue in GIMP - and then copy and paste of parts in Paint.

Next 3 Paints are available very soon - the white N-Reg.-Paint come with 3 different "Doorframes" - a red, a silvergrey and blank frame. Also the package contains them in a slight "weatherd" version.

[Bushpounder]

Fireball - Just some friendly criticism on the last of the 3 planes - the U.S. registered one. All U.S. registrations begin with N. After that, there can be up to 5 more digits. They can be 5 numbers, N51167, they can be 4 numbers and a letter, N5116Y, or they can be three numbers and 2 letter, N511YH. There are never more than 2 letters at the end.

Don - i know that as well. This paint was a personal request from a member here, who want this registration on it. After i had send him the paint, he asked me to offer it to everybody who want it - so i do.

One painted as a FedEx Feeder and or UPS Expediter would be really neat to see. I worked for a company that looked real serious at the Do-228 for hauling freight. The Dollar and "sense" didn't add up at the time....Was expensive to acquire, but would have made a great freighter!

I did a youtube search to get some opinions on the D-228 and happened on this channel that seems dedicated to addressing the real world issues of switching from the Tri islander to the DO for the Channel Islands.
It is unique in that the small population of the Islands gives it a passionate view on the change. The problems of ageing aircraft reliability vs growing pains on a new aircraft causing delays, one pilot vs two pilot operations and the communities affection for G-JOEY all make for some interesting viewing (for me at least) I thought some here might find it adds a bit of flavor for their simulated 228 operations.

All,

I haven't decided whether to upload and share all of these yet. They are all custom paints that I use personally. I've already had requests from folks to email everything to them. I got out of painting for a few years as my email inbox was a never ending request for paints. I have uploaded the yellow and black livery to a Dropbox location that anyone who clicks on this link can download that bird with a generic registration in a completely finished version.
