It is a great package from a designer who's models (freeware and payware) have brought me a lot of enjoyment. It usually lists for $62.47, but sometimes, you can catch it on the 50% off sale at PC Aviator like I did. So I got those planes for $32.97, and used that as justification to also get

regularly $49.97 for $24.97, so for the price of two payware planes, you get nine planes, I think 16 models, and none of em suck. Check it out.
Anyways, here's the DA40. I like this aircraft for a daily driver. Its reasonably fast, has great visibility, great fuel burn and is a great GA airplane for FSX.
Screens shot at Josef "Joey" Rotter's "Joe's Outpost" Scenery, which is available at a lot of freeware sites, but I don't think here at SimV. It also has lots of IS3 added objects by yours truly to turn it into a busier farm/granary/mill/orchard/ranch/marina/fishery/campground/cabins/FBO with an A&P on duty. I mean who doesn't want a place like that? ONce again, I should've taken the thermals out for the screens, but I didn't. I'll post some more screens from the other LHC planes in the coming days.
111.00 on the NAV1 opens the hangar doors
Buttoned up and Cranked up
Turn around, taxi out to the threshold for runups and t/o checklist
Everything is in the green and I went ahead and entered the runway heading and a 2000' bug in the AP
Same shot, but zoomed all the way out so you can see more of the VC
Add power, line up as I roll on, add more power, and she comes right off
Climb out to bug. Uncouple AP heading to hand fly heading.
Once I hit the bug and didn't need the climb power I pulled her back to 25/25 and she'll do 140-145kts true on 90PPH. Not too shabby.
On Downwind.
Turning to base (I use the ship as a reference on visual approaches to this runway)
On Base
On final
Taking back the last notch of flaps so she'll settle. Full flaps she wants to float a little with just one occupant.
Flare the mains on
Let the nose down
