Sky King

I remember as a kid watching Sky King and always being intreaged with his airplane. I found out that he flew 3 different planes. The Cessnas T-50, 310-B and the 310-D.  They seemed to be popular for FS 98-2002 but I can find nothing for 2004. Any help please!!

I went ahead and downloaded 2 Cessna 310's for 2002 but had to mix and match parts and put in a different panel because of gauge problems. It's now a great plane and flys just as I rememberd in the TV show! I do have a question about the Dream Fleet 2004 c310-2. It costs about $20 or more and before I spend the money I would like some input. I's not that I'm cheep,  (I'v downloaded over 200 aircraft..Kept about 100 all for free!! So I don't mind paying a little once and awhile). Does anybody have this aircraft they could comment on? Thanks.

I have the 310 in question, and it is by far a dream to fly, and I would easily pay twice as much for this kind of quality for such an outstanding aircraft...

Only dissappointment is that it's not the derivation with the rear window, (can't remember the model/year) which is what I was really looking for, but other than that it's great! :-)

Thank you Jared you were right! Is is a sweet plane to fly and well worth getting into the penny jar for it. Got to go now, headed to poland to fly down the Odra River. Talk to you all later, Wildie.

I have'nt really gave my new C-310 I bought much attention do to an extreamly busy period in my life. Almost scared to fly it. I'm assembling an aicraft (Boeing 7e7) to send to my sister in Scotland among many other projects that are backed up. I could use a virtual cockpit for 7e7, I'm using MS 2004. No luck as of yet. And why are VC's so hard to find for the larger jets? Poor frame rates or what. I did manage to install the CD player in my long range private jet. Now to move it to below and a bit under the panel like we used to with old Volkswagons bugs. I'l keep on keeping on, Keep the faith and thanks again!! ;D ;D
