    Question 'Carenado Mentor Crew A Bit "Small"..?'

    Don't get me wrong, I've LOVED this aircraft since FS2004 BUT....They do seem a wee bit under-nourished...

    I'd agree. It's not a huge scaling issue, but I think it's noticeable when comparing the pics.

    As a doctor, I highly recommend Hydroxycut.

    It seems to me that in flight simming the crew is nearly always scaled too small as compared to the airframe.

    I'm 6'2" and 260 lbs. I take up the BULK of the cockpit in a Cessna 172. I can take you for a ride, but you and I will become very cozy.

    I don't even want to talk about a Cessna 150 or 152, and in a Diamond DA-40 I hit regularly hit my head on the canopy.

    Yet I see these very comfortable crews sporting around in these virtual airplanes....
    Basic Flying Rules: "Try to stay in the middle of the air. Do not go near the edges of it. The edges of the air can be recognized by the appearance of ground, buildings, sea, trees and interstellar space. It is much more difficult to fly there."
