Review
"...this was a nice first aircraft for my first foray into the world of general aviation and it was a nice change. I found the aircraft nice and easy to handle and very impressed with the appearance - both interior and exterior. The rivets were plainly visible on the wings and the detail on the cockpit instruments was impressive. I also thought the animated pilot was a nice feature, as was the animated sun visor. And for the price, I thought this was excellent value for money." - FlightSim
