stu7708 244 Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 This one will sooner or later end up in my hangar.. that's for sure.. Spent many hours in the default C208 doing jobs in AH.. can't wait to try a better looking version of it... Fingers crossed for the Screenshot competition Link to post Share on other sites
VH-MAL 0 Posted October 20, 2010 Report Share Posted October 20, 2010 Just noticed on the Carenado site that they have added the Cargo Version add-on for this wonderful aircraft - the original product has been given a very good review at Avsim! It is purely an add-on and the base pack is required. Great for the AH community! Malcolm Link to post Share on other sites

VH-MAL 0 Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 For anyone serious with their flying of the SuperCargoMaster, I found the official Cessna site had a couple of very useful manuals, particularly: Specifications and Description (29 pages) Pilots Information Manual (536 pages) They are for the G1000 version but I'm sure the specs etc would apply to our old analogue version! They are available at: http://www.cessna.com/caravan/super-cargomaster/super-cargomaster-documents.html Malcolm PS I've written to them to see if I can get hold of an 'analogue' version of the manual Link to post Share on other sites
rob16584 42 Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 Let us know if they give you a hard copy, I might chance my arm if they do! I've got an A320 Pilots Quick Reference handbook which makes for good reading when flying in FSX, a C208 would go down nicely too Link to post Share on other sites
VH-MAL 0 Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 Yes - I'm one of those who likes reading manuals - and PMDG are great with what they supply, and occasionally Captain Sim aren't too bad. A great site for many manuals etc is: http://www.smartcockpit.com/ Look under 'Aircraft' for lots of 'stuff', which is being added to regularly. I found lots there for the BAE JS4100 for example, and there are many documents for the A320 - all available as pdf downloads. The manuals at the Cessna site are pdfs and very helpful. The only part of the Pilots Information Manual for which we need an amendment are the few pages dealing with the instruments, the rest is appropriate for the Carenado Super Cargomaster. I'll let you know if/when they give me a link to a pdf for the older (analogue instrument) version. Malcolm Link to post Share on other sites
