- A first look at the Carenado Cessna 337 Skymaster in Microsoft Flight Simulator - taking it for a flight around Booker airfield in Buckinghamshire, England. Along the way we take a look at the avionics, the flight modelling, and even get it to depart controlled flight! Fantastic aircraft, and great value for money.

Love seeing you wring it out. Bought it, great price for a really fun aircraft
A favourite of the Vampire from Steven kings the night flyer. Such nice modelling regret not buying this on sale not long back but will grab it at some point.
Literally the main reason I fell in love with this plane too ❤
337H Skymaster II is an excellent complement to 414AW and 310R. On the ground, I'm reducing power on the front engine and let the rear do most of the work, this reducing risk of small rock, sand and stuff hitting the rear propeller. When returning to the blocks after a flight, I usually shut down the front engine completely, as it's not longer needed :)
Good idea!
One of my favorite aircraft ever!!, Thanks for your videos Jonathan!
My pleasure!
i have about 100 hrs in the 337, and it flys just like a Skylane; heavier feeling than a 172, but solid as a rock. You CAN force it into a spin, but, like alle High Wing Cessna's, it recovers the instant you release some elevator pressure. Also, I have never seen it get totally vertical in the descent like that did. Love the Carenado's, but would LOVE to see them upgrade the rest of the airplanes to the quality of the visual environment. Still, if you fly them "normally", they are very realistic. Also, if you can open the normal front hinged door in flight more than 6 inches, you are a lot more man than I am!!!
Thx Jon ! I love this aircraft too, gorgeous looking a fun to fly. Bought as soon as it was released, one of my favorite GA planes.
Enjoy!
Excellent review. This is my go to plane. It's very reliable with enough power to get you out of trouble in the mountains. Even though I have flown the plane a lot, your review I learn a few things from your review. Thanks.
Thanks for sharing!
Love your work and definitely getting it.
It's a great plane :)
Thank you, Mr. Beckett-the spin was exciting! I’ve had the 337 for a short time. It’s loud, fast and fun.
Slew is your friend sometimes :)
@@jonbeckett indeed! Nicely done!
Structural failure on opening the window is quite common, the Kodiak 100 documentation specifically tells you to disable structural failure if you plan on opening storm windows and this applies to using the sky dive switch on that variant which opens the door.
Yep. Makes sense. I don't like the way structural failure is implemented in the sim - there is little or no warning. At least in the Stearman you get creaking and groaning from the airframe before it falls to pieces :)
I love this plane. Purchased when it was on sale. Fun to fly and a very interesting design. Works well with the GTN 750.
Agreed!
@@jonbeckett If you check Wikipedia, they made a pressurized Skymaster.
Spot on Video Thank You
You're very welcome
Nice review, thanks! B.t.w., I like the phasing sound 😊
Hah - the phasing sound drives some people round the bend. I take no notice of it.
It really is a great Aircraft 👍🙏🏻✈️👨✈️
I think it might be my favourite so far of the GA planes.
Hello, Thanks for your various presentations they are excellent, can you explain when you sit up to get a better view over te nose is that a key binding you set up only y space bar key does nothing?
Press space :)
That first approach... whoa! You fly that way IRL, I'm not going with you LOL! Still trying to figure out that damn autopilot though, too old school for me!
Hahaha :)
Great review of this little plane , I've been enjoying flying it around the UK ,such good fun.what do you think is the correct view point in the cockpit, the upper or lower view point? I'm never to sure. Gary.
I think the higher view is useful for taxi and landing
Yeah I agree
Odd duck. Has a certain Bronco pedigree. ;-)
i really like this plane lol
Hey there. Great tutorial. I’m unable to click the AP button for autopilot but can click everything else on that section such as heading, nav, and altitude. Any suggestions?
Map it to a button on your controller.
I have the 337 but not the 414. You say the 414 has a similar AP... does it have the same on/off, turn knob and pitch scroll wheel under the throttle quadrant as the 337?
Yes - it's very similar.
The weather radar works on mine, and I got it at release
I'll have to take another look!
@@jonbeckett mine doesn’t work either.
I baught it and it isn't study level but I always wanted a rather odd aircraft so there ya go and Carenado doesn't update anything so won't be buying anything Carenado anymore but luv the 337 just the same.
I don't mind that not all the planes are study level. It makes a change to not have to think too much sometimes :)
Nothing happens pressing space bar
It's a keyboard mapping. I thought it was default - so you must have re-configured the keyboard mappings at some point ?
I flew a real one, G-fast.
