I have the PC-9 and PC-21 and also the PC-24 in P3D and they all looks and works very well.
But, the support from IRIS Simulation is absolutely a no go.
If you have a problem, like me ( have lost my password to my account) you will never get an responce to your tickets or e-mails, even if you tried it with all avaible adresses.
Such a shame! But perhaps its only my very personal expiriences.
Getting licensed by the manufacturer is just another way devs try to make money. It is in no way shape or form a guarantee that it will be a study level aircraft. There are other flightsim aircraft that are approved by the manufacturer that have very little system depth.
I believe the default Asobo citation lattitude is licensed by the manufacturer, and we all know how that thing is.
its a Longitude
Hope theyāll fix it somedayā¦
I had their PD-5, Spartan and Warthog. The A-10 was excellent, the others not bad.
I would love to see them release the PC-21. It is my favorite aircraft in P3D. I do look forward to seeing the new PC-9 and PC-24.
Instabuys for me. Their PC-9 was one of my favourite FSX/P3D single/tandem seaters and great fun as well as an excellent cockpit and more to the point, an excellent manual. I did like their T-6 as well, until I got into VR, when I realised it had a 2D VC panel and stopped flying it.
Iāve had zero issues with David Briceās support (or his wife - I forgot her name) and when I bought my first product of theirs - the FGR2 Phantom - I realised Iād made a mistake and should have bought the FG1 for the proper VC - they gave me it for free, along with advice on how to get the FG1 VC into the FGR2, as I was new to FSX at the time.
They also had a $5 sale every December without fail - which allowed me to buy practically their entire hangar for a ridiculously low price.
I loved flying their F-14A/B, even though it wasnāt really my kind of thing - never forget my first flgiht, where I pulled a high-G turn and blewout both engines and had to try gliding to a forced landing (didnāt make it as I couldnāt find a clear enough spot). Even though it was very simplified in the VC operation, it was great fun and looked good.
***edit - see it here on my website:
Their C-27J was great for things like Air Hauler, too, even if the VC was bit uninspiring. I know that Chris Frishmuth/BeachAV8R of PC Pilot is a big fan, too, for the same reasons.
Iāll likely buy anything they produce for this sim, as long as itās the kind of aircraft I will fly.
Hereās a link to SkyVector. Good info including a list of nearby airports:
There is a nice freeware scenery for The Vale on flightsim.to! Would recommend it, I fly in and out of there a lot in the sim! Lovely location. (No need for all those asset packs either, I only have ones that are used by other sceneries I have installed too)

Here is an overview of what to expect, maybe the cockpit will look better than this 2016 model maybe it will almost be the same 3D model - there are no screenshots yet:
The stall speed is 90 knots which is superb because other typical STOL bush-planes like the Cessna Caravan (65kn) and Quest Kodiak (60kn) are not much ābetterā.
The only thing not possible is a very short take-off, the runway lenght for starting must be 900 meters, while the Quest Kodiak uses 1000 feet of runway (~300 meters) and the Caravan uses 2,500 ft / 762 m runway.
Let`s hope they get these iconic and awesome looking faux fur seats somehow into the virtual cockpit.
Thank you very much for the heads up! I wasnāt aware, will definitely install and visit there more often. Especially when the PC24 is released⦠REALLY looking forward to that!
Thx!
That fixed the problem that the airport was not there
Thatās a strange conclusion since the minimum approach speed is Vst x 1.3, which means 117kts vs 78kts which is a lot.
Furthermore stall speed depends a lot on weight and at low weight e.g. a A319 has a lower stall speed than the PC-12 ![]()
OT but nice to know: Global Xpress have lower VREF than Challengers because they have slats, even if heavier
The lack of slats, one of biggest drawbacks of MSFS ![]()
No PC12 coming to the sim. I use to fly as a passenger very frequently on a new pc12 and I loved that airplane! Company also had a Honda jet. Honda jet flew higher and faster but man I really loved the pc 12 and would love to fly one in my sim.
Iām pretty sure that Carenado will do one since they had a really nice one for FSX/P3D.
If they do, I will buy it.

Letās not get too pedantic about their choice of words.
Microsoft Flight Simulator IS recreational..
Looking forward to this!!
From what they say on their Facebook, it sounds like the PC9 will be first.
