Carenado Double-Shot

[jordonj]

I decided to take a flight with a little-used plane in my hangar...the Piper Cherokee Archer II.  I was going to head over to Pioneer and maybe say hello to Ben (whatever he calls himself here these days).



Taxiied behind a 172...



Shortly as the 172 was taking off, I was told to taxi into position and hold, then given clearance...



Many of you know of my penchant for flying at night..well, I was beginning to tire and so I landed at the nearest airport I could find (KSUE)...



After a good night sleep, I switched to the Cessna 182 RG2 Skylane...(because I could)...



I never get tired of the Cessna's folding gear!



Continued heading about 227*





Shortly before I arrived (about 8nm out) the weather turned to soup!  Just a few minutes ago, it had been reported clear.  After a go-around, I was able to land, though it was quite a chore!

Though after landing, I could see that Ben lives near a bueat of an airport!

Great shots, great play by play  :)
I haven't purchased any GA aircraft yet, but I like the looks of this one (the Cherokee Archer II).
I have a few freeware Highwings and they're not too bad, I can't really see buying any of them (although I'm considering buying a payware Bellanca).

[Jared]

Which Bellanca are you looki at buying?

There are a good number of decathalons as well as the scout that are FREEWARE..

Now if a payware citabria came out, I might by it....lol

I just moved more money into my paypal account, so I can buy the 182 on the day it goes on SimMarket!

Nice looking aircraft jordonj

Have you tried the C337 "Skymaster" yet...the old "mixmaster" is a bit of fun as well.

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

The one by FSD isn't out yet, and I don't really care much for the freeware ones I've found.

I took a shot of a real one in the Photos forum (a local Fly-In)...

I was told they're safer than other twins as they're a lot more controllable than the ones with engines side-by-side...
