I absolutely love that airplane! It has been my new favorite for a month or so, and Im taking it on a trip around africa (screenshot journal to come). Though, havnt you noticed an almost 50% loss of power at high altitude? the way I got around it was to essentially give it a new set of engines by copying the engine data from the AC680 .cfg file, the entire .air file, and some of the guages (for the new engines). Basically it is now an AC680 with the old AC500 dirty paint job, and it works like a charm. If only I had thought of this before crossing the mountains of Rowanda.
