Review | Alabeo C207 Skywagon

Big, bigger, biggest … the Alabeo Cessna C207 Skywagon. Your personal reporter Angelique van Campen flies with the C207 during IFR and VFR flights and comes to the conclusion that this Alabeo model is still worth every penny. According to Angelique “What can I say … I enjoyed flying around with the Alabeo C207 Skywagon.

Check out Angelique’s in-depth review of the SR22 GTXS Turbo.

According to your personal reporter Angelique van Campen reviewing the old-fashioned Beechcraft Baron 58 is/was fun. Yes, it’s not the newest twin engine GA aircraft, neither less, a lot to see, a lot modified since version 1.0 which came from 2012. And no, it’s not old-fashioned. Ok, is has no modern EFIS instruments or whatever is possible these days, but it’s not an old-fashioned aircraft to fly with.” Worth the review and the read? Yes, absolute worth to read her comprehensive review.

Review | B-52 Stratofortress by “depas57”

Hmmm …. the Boeing B-52 Stratofortress was not a review title I had in mind. On the other hand, it’s an impressive aircraft, so why not review it and it’s fun too? I found this “modified” aircraft a while ago on X-Plane.Org, uploaded by depas57. So, what’s then so special? The aircraft gets, besides many other things, a 3D cockpit. You can read Angelique’s B-52 3D cockpit review via this link.

Review | Carenado Malibu Mirage

One of Angelique’s favourite Carenado aircraft, besides the C337, the Piper PA-46 Malibu Mirage. Why you would ask …. because she’s seen this aircraft in real at Texel Airport (EHTX).

Review | Robin DR400 140B by XPFR

Your personal GA investigator Angelique takes a close look at the, already for a while on the market, XPFR Robin DR400 140B.

Review | Stampe et Vertongen SV-4 by XPFR

Review | The Ultimate X-56 Rhino H.O.T.A.S.

Your personal reporter Angelique van Campen had the opportunity to test the Saitek X-56 Rhino HOTAS unit. And was it worth the writing and testing or ….? According to Angelique “I’m impressed about the integration of the X-56 Rhino hardware with Laminar Research X-Plane for Windows 10 Professional and macOS Sierra. And yes, the X-56 works quite well with X-Plane on a Mac although there’s no Saitek software available for this OS.” But there’s more. Curious to the rest?

Then it’s time to check out her Montpellier XPFR review.

What will it be this time …. the vFlyteAir Piper Cherokee PA28-140 Series. Oops, that’s and old, almost historical aircraft, but it must be said, it’s very well modeled and flies like an angel.
