    Beautiful scheme Daveroo but as a taxpayer I question why the Air Boss needs a $3mil bird-dog? A turboprop yes but a PC12? Will they be dropping smokejumpers or using that big cargo door for hauling? There's probably a few OV-10's still out there at Davis Monthan not to mention solid $600K TurboCommanders or KingAirs that could do the job.

    Hey All,

    Good Choice Colorado!

    If I only had one plane to fly in FS it would be the PC-12. If I could only fly one company's aircraft it would be Pilatus. My other dream is that somebody model the PC-24 Pilatus Jet.

    Love to see this repaint!

    Ditto, ditto and ditto. Flew the AFG in FS9 and many smiles per mile in the F1 PC-12 which gets heavy use. The aircraft IRL and sim is just so versatile. Looking forward to the Carenado release. PC-24 promised capability on short/unimproved fields is intriguing. Colorado has expensive but good taste for its bird dogs . .
    Striker, listen, and you listen close: flying a plane is no different than riding a bicycle, just a lot harder to put baseball cards in the spokes.
