Aircraft Review : Alabeo PA-38 Tomahawk II\r\n \r\nRoute : YROM Circuits\r\n \r\nWe all start our flying career somewhere. 95% percent of the time it is usually in a very lightweight aircraft or if you are really serious a trainer.

Publisher: Alabeo\r\n\r\n\r\nReview Author:Mark A.

I\r\nwas immediately impressed with the really high quality at a\r\nreasonable price. Well Alabeo has done it again kicking off the New\r\nYear with the 2014 Piper Tomahawk II for \r\n\r\n\r\nFSX\r\n\r\nand\r\n\r\n\r\nX-Plane\r\n\r\n(my sim of choice)\r\n\r\nI downloaded the file (228.2 MB), opened it, and much to my\r\ndelight I was greeted with an absolutely beautiful rendition of the\r\nPiper Tomahawk II.
