Anyone have any pireps on this company? They have what looks like a nice Aerostar add-on for FS 2004 for $12.00. (I am a cheap ba$tard pilot, after all) I am also looking for an add-on Twin Comanche. So far, I haven't been able to find one to dowload that will work.

No PIREP on them, but sooner or later I'm planning on buying a desktop computer (larger screen), putting X-Plane on it and either finding a Twin Comanche for it, or developing one myself.

Looks like you can get both the Twin Comanche and the Aerostar for X-Plane already...

No idea about the Aerostar, but if you want a Twin Comanche, give this one a look. I have no idea how it matches up to the real plane, since I've never flown a twin, but they include a bunch of real world POH charts and it seems to do pretty well by them. It feels more like real flying to me than most FS aircraft.

Actually, I just purchased it. It works very well. Also found an Aerostar. Although when I use it before using any other aircraft, the engines shut down as soon as the screen opens, and they will not restart. If I start out with any other aircraft, and then load up the Aerostar, it works fine.

Although the entire FS2004 seems to have a problem. I cannot get any failures to work at all. They will be set to fail at certain times, but they do not ever fail. I have everything set to full realism, and still, no failures. Doesn't matter what aircraft I use, nothing fails.

Hmm, I'm not sure what the problem there would be, although I seem to recall that loading the sim with a default aircraft before loading an addon aircraft is a common trick in FS2004. I use FSX, which has a somewhat more robust failure suite - good enough, at least, for practicing partial-panel.
