Carenado S550 Citation II | Full review and systems tutorial

[@ZZstaff]

It has been many years since I have flown real aircraft. I became disabled, and since then I have used FSX. Regarding real [map, etc] updates, those would probably be cost prohibitive to the average sim user, but highly desirable to real pilots. I almost forgot this, TTG, means time to go. I will provide Boeing's Acronyms here www.airliners.net/aviation-forums/tech_ops/read.main/36351/ I am torn between purchasing the S550 and the Cessna 404 Titan by Alabeo, which is less expensive, 1900+ NM range, and by the looks of the panel uses more simple avionics than the Citation. Thank you for taking the time to make this video and I wish more people would have seen it thus far. Unfortunately, I will not be able to watch it all at this time, but will return to finish watching this fine video.

ZZstaff Thanks for your help and kinds words ZZstaff. I haven't had a chance to look at the Cessna 404 but the citation is certainly fun to fly, just a shame it wasn't a more polished/complete simulation (especially for the price).

Great review,but "livery",not "laivery"

[@CCitis]

Just a comment, I am a real world pilot.. Because the engines are rear mounted the avionics fans are actually really loud... Maybe not that loud but close... Nice video

Thank you so much for this, the included documentation is soooooo darn poor and until I saw your video I thought I had wasted my money on the aircraft. Now that I understand its systems I am feeling better about it. I saw on the forums that they slotted in an aftermarket FMS into it and that looks exciting but I dont want to get a FMS just for one aircraft. We will see though,

[@OblivionPlays]

Thanks for your kind words, I'm glad it was helpful. Yeh I saw that too, was extremely disappointed that they are asking extra money for it, especially considering the price of this addon (and dare I compare it to other aircraft like the majestic dash 8 and PMDG aircraft, where it is part of the aircraft...), but I'll see what happens and consider getting it. I think they have developed it for their Hawker too though so could be an investment; however again I think these things should have been included in the price.
