Dash 8

[manhattan]

Hi Folks.

Not sure if I am in the right section, but I want to buy a really good DASH 8 (not a real one!) At the moment, I have a full size Twin Otter cockpit, but would like to move up a little in aircraft size. I would appreciate it if anybody can help me source a good version of this aircraft?

Many thanks.

I do not have this product, but from what I have read it is the best Dash 8-300. I do believe there is a -400 in work.

This is one of the best freeware Dash 8 to get:

It later became a payware, but you could try the freeware to see if you like it. Here's the link to the payware site:

I've been playing around with the freeware version for a while now and it is fantastic. Took me a couple hours (even with the documentation) just to figure out how to start the engines and get it up into the air.

Man oh Man,

They even have a FSUIPC version for Cockpit interfacing. WOW, unbelievable.

What a great aircraft.

Thanks for Posting Henry.

Just remember to check the gear!!!

The FSUIPC version is quite expensive !

Does anyone have a quick explanation as to why it is so expensive or how exactly it would be different from the other version.

Wouldn't it be an easy thing to do,, to assign buttons ,switches etc using a registered version of FSUIPC to the cheaper model ???
or am I missing something??

Good question Spitfire9. I just sent them an email about there FSUIPC version. I am curious about there glass cockpit too ie is in networkable. Ill post any info i get as soon as i get it.

I bet you dollars to dough nuts that they have written the FSUIPC version, and a Internal coded version (like PMDG) to prevent such.

But I got news for you. Thats not expensive...

Project Magenta is Three times that.

You appear to be correct regarding price Trevor.

The point that needs clarification is that Majestic is modeling the whole aircraft and all the systems for less price. Correct?

By the way, where are all the PM updates!

That is exactly what i asked in my email to them. It sounds like there 400 is going to be even more expensive.
