Suggestion for a passenger short-range prop (FSX)?

Postby Barbr » Wed May 13, 2009 7:39 pm

Hey guys,

I'm unfamiliar with many of the propeller planes, but was looking for one that has a short take-off/landing requirement for little village airports, but one also has enough seats (to be used with FS Passengers X).

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

-Barb

ps. Oh yeah, it has to have autopilot capabilities, PLEASE  ;)

I have the twin otter, it's a good plane, but not very many real world airlines use it, so I really don't fly it that much. If you like bush flying, definetly get that (be aware, NO 2D PANEL!) Otherwise, I have heard that the F1 Pilatus PC12 is an excellent choice.

Try The Shorts 360
Carriers would be so mush easier to land on if they would just stop turning!!!

Try this one. The other one doesn't work for me either, but I tried this one and it did. 8-)
