Veneaviones Turbo Commander 690B

The Turbo Commander was developed from the Aero Commander light twins, the first in a series of light twin-engined aircraft originally built by the Aero Design and Engineering Company in the late 1940s. The later developed Commanders have the advantage of combining outstanding STOL (Short Take-Off and Landing) capabilities with a cruise speed close to 300 kts and with a pressurized cabin able to fly at altitudes above 30,000 ft. Many piston engine versions have been built by Aero Commander which was taken over by Rockwell in the 50�s. Rockwell's General Aviation Division was acquired by Gulfstream in 1981. Production of the last Commander, the 1000 model, ceased in 1985.

The Veneaviones Rockwell Turbo Commander 690B was released in March 2005. The package is complete with panel, virtual cockpit and sounds. The exterior looks very good and the liveries aren't bad either. The panel looks nice with the majority of systems simulated. The virtual cockpit is a bit simple, but many buttons and switches are clickable. There is a winglet and non-winglet package and each package includes a vc and wingview model. A passenger cabin is also part of the vc model. It has all the usual animations plus opening doors.
