I just saw this airplane in a commercial on youtube and i thought to my self "Hey that looks like the plane i have been looking for for Air Hauler 1 and 2" I'm thinking of buying this aircraft, so many thanks for the review mate :D
Very pleased that you're back and able to give us some more of your unique reviews, but sorry that OCS did not work out for you. Very often these things are for the best, so maybe you were always destined to go down the ATP route!
Hey David - just subscribed to your channel - this as well as the 500 Shrike review were superb. I am trying to decide on which aircraft to purchase as I want to have in my hangar a good twin engine STOL aircraft (maybe two). I guess the roo Shrike does not have reverse thrusters (Beta) as does the DO228. I want to use it for short field landings and takeoffs.
clouddancer9 P3D is much more advanced both graphics wise but also in the way it prevents OOMs so I've had FSX uninstalled for about a year now. These days I also spend a lot of time flying XP11
I hear you, one reason didn't move to P3D was the limited planes at the time and the scenery packages. There was too much still for fsx to make the change. And it easy to edit the fSX code to fix all the bugs.
clouddancer9 Almost everything works with P3d now,I can't think of any add-ons that don't provided you have the Estonia migration tool. I will say large airliners are smoother on FSX but honestly most my airline flying has moved to XP11 the performance is much better usually over 35 fps on rare occasions when at a pay ware airport in a payware plane with losts of weather the frames will drop but even at 20 fps it's smooth as butter in XP where ads FSX and P3d are very jumpy at that speed which makes XP really good for large complex airliners that eat frames
I know u did an "e" startup BUT I've yet to see a start up out of a dozen vids that depicts any kind of realistic "spool up"?? Why didn't Carenado model this immersion feature into their DO228?? Other than that the the plane is beautiful. Great review.
People seem to enjoy landing this aircraft 30 knots over the flaps-down stall speed. It must be a cognitive thing but this aircraft can be landed at Cessna 172 speed.
stansdds Yea it sucked getting up there starting training just to find out I couldn't finish it. Oh well I'm going to go back to working towards my ATP
Gerrit Dutch No,the gtn750 is an add on that's made by flight1 that integrates with many planes in the VC,the do228 features this integration.the gtn750 is a full simulation of the real thing
