Flybe livery for FlyJSim Dash 8-Q400

This is the new Flybe livery for the FlyJSim Dash 8. Read my review on the Dash 8 here.

This livery is very nice and detailed, as well as accurate.

Twin Otter seaplane

This is the Twin Otter seaplane by 'skycycle'.

The de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter is a Canadian 19-passenger STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) utility aircraft developed by de Havilland Canada and currently produced by Viking Air. The aircraft's fixed tricycle undercarriage, STOL abilities and high rate of climb have made it a successful cargo, regional passenger airliner and MEDEVAC aircraft.

This aircraft only has a 2d cockpit, and is tricky to land in rough seas. You can also land this aircraft on land.

FlyJSim Dash 8-Q400

This aircraft is a fun turboprop to fly, but is for the experienced pilot. Crosswind landings a quite tricky, but on a calm day this aircraft is fun to fly. It comes with a highly detailed manual and loads of liveries.

The Dash 8-Q400 is a stretched and improved 70–78 passenger version that entered service in 2000. Its 360 knot (667 km/h) cruise speed is 60–90 knots (111–166 km/h) higher than its competitors/predecessors. Powered by PW150A engines rated at 5,071 shp (3,781 kW) at maximum power (4,850 shp or 3,620 kW maximum continuous rated). The maximum operating altitude is 25,000 ft (7,600 m) for the standard version, although a version with drop-down oxygen masks is offered, which increases maximum operating altitude to 27,000 ft (8,200 m). All Q400s include the ANVS system.
