Both are different planes!

Another great success! I admit when flying each I don't detect much difference but I think the nose of the Mk2 has a slightly more pleasing shape than the turned up one on the Mk1.
 
All I can say is “wow”. A quality add on that put a number of payware releases to shame. Congratulations on a truly magnificent aircraft. Will be flying this a lot.

Beautiful flying machine, but I can't get the "Volts" light to go out on the warning panel. I've got the generator on and am following the startup checklist. Am I missing a switch somewhere?

Thomas,

Just made my first flight in the Mark 2. Super job ! Only noticed one little 'bug'. The strobes on the wing are visible in the cabin in the wing root area.
No biggie, just don't look up there on a night flight. It'll ruin your night vision.:biggrin-new:

Off to make another flight with the float model ! Thanks for another great plane !
 
Thomas,
As others have noted, there are payware planes that don't come close to the quality of your planes. Many thanks for such a generous contribution to the community.

I was pleasantly surprised by the manageable ground handling characteristics. I was prepared for the typical FSX turboprop compromise of either "taxi at 60 knots and/or ride the brakes until they're red hot"...but the Ground Idle switch on the Soloys definitely works as advertised!
 
Totally blows away the payware stuff. Bravo. I don't think I need to buy another Cessna again. LOL
