News! - Now Released! - XP11 Aircraft Upgrade for Carenado 690B Turbo Commander

 

Carenado have released their X-Plane11 version of their lovely 690B Turbo Commander. This is a slightly different aircraft to their original release in the: Quick Flight Review : AeroCommander Shrike 500s by Carenado here. I do remember one thing, it was a very nice aircraft to fly, and be in.
