I can’t help but feel that in comparison with their ESP cousins, development of quality content has fallen behind, especially for aircraft.

Threshold Review: Carenado 58 Baron for X-Plane 11

Aircraft Review

Mike Cameron

At $29.95, I think it is priced right to include the XP11 visual features and is a very fun aircraft to fly that I recommend if you want to add a twin-engine aircraft to your virtual hangar. If you are a casual simulator user, the aircraft itself will probably satisfy you.
