Previously previewed at the beginning of November, Carenado has this Friday shared further previews showcasing the up-and-coming rendition of a Cessna Skymaster for Microsoft Flight Simulator.
Carenado has decided to recreate the C337 Super Skymaster variant of the aircraft. This variant is specific by having a retractable landing gear, redesigned nose cowling, and greater wing angle of incidence (angle of the wing relative to the fuselage).
The developers from Carenado have further detailed, that the Sim Update 7 caused some issues that had to be fixed before this set of previews could go public. Anyway, the main issues were fixed and the developers are now only finishing small corrections and detail. Thus, the release is very close.
Unfortunately, no further details were shared on the exact release date topic or pricing. However, based on the prices of Carenado’s previous aircraft for the simulator, the addon price is very likely to move around a €15 mark.
The Cessna Skymaster is a twin-engine aircraft built between 1963 and 1982. It can take up to 6 people including one pilot with a range of over 900 nautical miles and a service ceiling of 19,500 feet. With not-so-typical engine locations, the aircraft handles differently and has no one-engine-out minimum controllable speed (Vmc). This makes it not as critical to fly with one engine.
