WWWHHHHYYYY??? Total waste imho.. you can't beat the Flight1 T182TC... we know their G1000 won't be nearly as good.

At least make a C172 with G1000 - those are popular trainers..

WWWHHHHYYYY???

Because the Flight1 is a total framerate hog, that's why.

Well Carenado Planes Rock and They are Less a Hit on the Credit Cards Where Flight 1 over charges for everything :jump:

thank you very much....I was just about to say the same thing. Thank you Carenado!!!! I just wish we could get them to do a Cessna 207

Because of the amazing G1000... if Carenado did one just like theirs it would be a frame rate hog as well.

I guess I'll speak for myself when I say I don't want another default-ish G1000 put in an addon unless it's as good or better than F1's.

Given certain partnerships, I can't help but wonder if Cessna may have a word or two thousand about Carenado releasing this plane?

If they do, it might be buying TWO packages of Jiffy Pop popcorn to sit back and watch the fireworks.

Carenado have boxed clever,though, as there's no mention of Cessna (or Piper) nor logo/TM anywhere on their site :icon_lol:

This looks nice to me, but I sure wish Carenado would go for some of the less common looks (like they did with the 340, 337, the JetProp Malibu, and the V35). I'd really love to see them doing a Beechcraft Skipper, or a Piper Aztec, Pocono, or Tomahawk. I have enough 172, 185, and 182 varieties. I guess they know what sells, though.

I'd like to see some more twins from them, like a Partenavia, an Aero-Commander, and an Aerostar, Carenado style.

Well, I also really want a Meridian, but I know that won't happen until the Jet-Prop has been out a while.

This is totally stupid. If they wanted to do a G1000 plane, how about redoing their 206 and putting it in there?

I don't get it.

I really hope they're not going to concentrate on glass cockpit aircraft now. I know they tend to model aircraft they have access to but I hope they'll carry on producing aircraft with primarily steam gauges. So this may be the first Carenado airplane I don't buy!

Yes. Like a 406 or 441 would be interesting.

Looks great! I say load em up! Since we are going to have to stick with FSX...the more detailed....the more I add to the hardware up to the hardware upgrade.

The Flight 1 model might represent the G1000 more accurately than Carenado is capable of matching, but they do so in a cartoony-looking $50 shell that, for me anyway, kills the realism that such extensive avionics bring to the table. Besides...standard G1000's are becoming dinosaurs, with the advent of the Perspective model of the G1000, which is what I fly IRL in a Cirrus SR-20. That being said, I feel as though a G1000 that is 50 to 75% operable and accurate in FSX, with an excellent visual model and FDE, is far paramount to a G1000 that is 100% accurate in a 'family-guy' skin...that costs an arm and a leg...just my opinion...

Well said Matt!


I also would like to know why there would be an issue with Cessna as someone has stated in the post earlier? If I'm not mistaken.....they've done many Cessnas in the past. I wonder since Carenado is not based in the USA how Cessna could do anything anyway?

Yep I also agree with you - well said.

I'm more than happy to see 'another' Cessna from Carenado.
Agreed, some of the more obscure versions would be excellent, but at least Carenado turn out aircraft that are not festooned with all manner of weaponry hanging off them.

The last model I bought from Carenado was the FS9/X Mooney which was ok for its time. Theyve always done attractive looking models with basic functionality but in the past I thought their flight models were simplistic. That said I just acquired the Malibu and liked it so tried their A36 Beechcraft, which is just brilliant IMHO. The latest two show big improvements across the board, especially the FDE. And price is not horrendous. I probably wont buy the Cessna but the Kingair looks interesting.

I dont have the f1 t182t, wish i did, but I do have their Cessna Mustang. To this day, I think it is the best plane I have as far as detail, flight model and avionics. I think the exterior modelling is as good as it gets. If their 182 is of the same quality, I dont know how one could complain. However, the interior shots of the Carenado bird looks great. The upholstery and door panels alone make me want it.

I don't get it.

I'd take a redone 206 hands down, my most favourite in FS9 by a long shot

If this is going to be the next best thing then maybe...

I'll be purchasing it...and use the money that I will have saved by purchasing the Carenado model instead of the Flight1 model to buy Ant's Eaglet :jump:

Now if they would do something vintage, like a nicely detailed 195, I'd be all over that! :mixedsmi:

There are more than enough singles to choose from when it starts getting into such "special versions" of the same model. However, will be a buyer of the C90 and would definately welcome more twins, e.g. up to date FSX AC Shrike, Cessna 310 (the much more attractive, IMHO, shorter nose version) or 402.

I'm all for a C195 as well. A classy and classic aircraft.

You wil find that Carenado only model aircraft they have access to.
Since they are in Chile this will limit their choice on what is resident in Chile......a quick scan of GA types at Airliners.net would give an idea on what they haven't already modelled for FSX...so I'm betting it will be one of the following for their next model:

Cessna 303, 310Q, P210 (with a turboprop conversion), 172S (Garmin?), 414, 421 or maybe they may branch out to jets (Citation 1/11/CJ-1, X, VI)

Piper Navajo C/Cheftain/Navajo with Panther conversion, Cheyenne II, Super Cub, Tomahawk, Archer III, Comanche 250, Lance II

Beech King Air 100/200/300, E-55 Baron, Skipper

Mooney 231

Aviat Husky (would really like to see one of these)

Looks excellent. I am eagerly anticipating the carenado rendition of the g1000 in this aircraft, as I believe it will give is a small peek into the Cirrus Perspective they are working on....

...And, since the carenado visual models, and FDE's get better and better with each subsequent release, I hope that they are making similar strides with the avionics coding :jump:

This looks a lot better than the Flight1 offering. Let's see how the complete package turns out.
