New! Mario Noriega Piaggio P-180 V3.0

Sometimes it is not how beautiful they are, it's how beautiful they sound. We have one that regularly flies into KDAN (Danville, VA) and it has the most unique sound you'll ever hear, nothing that's flies over my house (on the KDAN flight path for Runway 20) even remotely has that sound, I know instantly when it's landing.

Thanks a bunch, I do like the plane, one of the few small tubes that I do.

credit where credit is due. We need to thank all who work so hard to give us freeware, whether you like it or not.

I will have to say after taking this on a flight from Ketchican to Juneau (just got back from a cruise), this is really an outstanding piece of work! Many thanks from me.

Now, Can SOMEONE do a KC-135? We have the CS B-52, Virtulava B-1, and lots of other aircraft with inflight refueling but with no tanker (FSX not AI). Come to think of it, there are no plastic model kits out there either. Not right for such a significant aircraft.

Well, in terms of beauty I think we can call this one "special". I like it, honnestly.
When it comes to the model itself, it's simply excellent, not only for its 3D shapes, but also for the textures, crisp and clear.
The virtual cockpit could use some HD textures, that's true, but I think it already looks quite good for freeware. It's also very interractive, a lot of stuff is clickable and the plane is a joy for short to medium IFR flights. In fact, back in my FS9 days, I use to put it on par with the famous freeware TBM700.
