PropairFlight Cheyenne III

The hype is real, PropairFlight Piper Cheyenne III is almost here! :raising_hands:

We’ve been needing a top-tier PA-42 in the sim for way too long. 290+ knot cruise, custom engine modeling, 4K textures, and a choice between classic steam gauges or modern glass? Yes, please :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

Who’s grabbing this on day one? Drop your destination ideas for the maiden voyage! :airplane_departure::backhand_index_pointing_down:

Any more photos or videos?

Good news: it was missing. When will we see the Xbox version?

Do we have to do the training course before we can fly it?

Is this a 2020 plane? Unless I’m reading it wrongly?

It’s both, there’s a separate landing page for the 2024 version

But is the 2024 version a real 2024 plane, or just compatible? Frustrating trying to figure that out nowadays…

IMHO, from the photos on Orbx it doesn’t look very good, the rust and dirt seems exaggerated. Some textures also seem low resolution.

It kind of looks more like a 2020 aircraft. I wonder if it will be available in the Marketplace with career support :thinking:

Agreed. Cockpit looks cartoonish as well.

Found what compatibility it has.

On its own ORBX page it offers 2 versions

Agree with the interior modelling being below par vs the current standards on 2024. Not a plane I would buy until this is improved a heck of a lot! Despite the Virtual Type rating on offer which did look interesting.


Lots of straight jaggy parts where it should be rounded.

A gentle warning here:

I bought the PropairFlight Shark UL 600. They quickly abandoned the project, they haven’t even addressed bugs or user questions since April this year.

Yes, after Shark there is no way i will buy anything from them.

Stay tuned!Join Propair Flight official discord channel for more update:Propair Flight Official

We want to reassure you, @HeapstheBrave, that we are actively working on an update for the Shark to resolve these issues. Please follow the #propairflight -shark600 channel on our Discord server for the latest status reports, progress updates, and release announcements.

Reassure?
You told the users you were abandoning the project.
You haven’t even answered the Discord messages in months…
Now you don’t want the bad press because you want people to fall into the trap again and buy the Cheyenne.

Folks, please stay on topic. This is a discussion topic on the Cheyenne III. General issues with the quality of support by PropairFlight should be conducted on their support channels. This topic is not an appropriate place for a back-and-forth between the developer & users on that subject. Further posts that are off-topic will be removed. Thank you.

I usually don’t like writing negative reviews about add-ons, but this time I really have to! If you’re planning to buy Propair’s Cheyenne III, think twice. I just bought it and took it for a test flight… I’ve seen freeware better than this, and considering the price—even higher than the fantastic Hawker 800XP—I’d say it’s practically a rip-off.
