Hello,

I want to fly the Lea to Howland Island flight. There is is no good Electra for FSX. I was thinking of using the Beech D18s. Is Dave Carrolls iteration the best version? What about Vlamir Gonchars Beech 45 v2? Can I just add a buttfull of fuel to the center tank in the .cfg? Any input would be awesome!

Without sounding bias (as he's here) Milton's one is still one of, if not the best D18s available. I personally prefer the fs9 version to the x native, its a lovely lovely aircraft.... modding the centre tank, or adding one more tank just in the rear should do you :)
Checkout the Beech's cargo capacity at full tanks, and decide just how much you want to be fuel...
 
Thank You Firekitten. I want as much fuel as possible. I won't be using GPS. Luckily, if I don't make it, I doubt I'll suddenly disappear from my chair in front of the sim. With out a trace.
