Should be pretty close I am guessing since they release about every 2 months or so.

It's looking good except they REALLY seem to re-use their gauges. From that one VC shot it appears that the gauges are the same as in the Arrow...at least the main ones. I'm sure the airspeed won't be, but most others do...

I've noticed that with Carenado. Oh well, I',ll probably get it anyway

I guess as most of the real life pipers i have flown have panels that all look the same within a certain time frame - until you get to the glass cockpits - then its plausable.

Ofcourse there were a lot of different avionics available in that time frame. I agree with Ryan. We now have the Cessna 206, Mooney, Arrow and probably the Seneca with the exact same avionics.
Carenado have built different ones. Just look at the FS9 Archer or Dakota.

Sorry - thougth we were talking about guages - of course avionics are a variable

That is a good point about the older aircraft. And I could be wrong, that screenshot isn't very revealing... :kilroy:

A few old seneca cockpits (hmmm the gauges do look similar to older arrows):

Nice examples Ryan. I like these old Bendix radio's in the first link, as well as te Collins radio's in the second :)

About the Carenado Seneca, it seems they have put in an old Garmin GPS on the copilot side.
