The Carenado CJ2 is a plane that would give me a lot of fun flying if it weren't for glaring weaknesses on the autopilot.
1. VNAV is really poor
2. LNAV (NAV) don't work -_ The plane going in other directions than the direct an Navdisplay announce.
There is no native integration of alternative NAVs like the GTN?
For this reason the CJ2 get only 3 stars
I hate two things about this plane. The FMS does not have altitudes pre programmed for waypoints. So for flying SIDS and STARS you have to program the altitude/speed restrictions yourself. The other thing I hate about this plane, its not a CJ2+ I like the attenuators but I like the "attenuator-less" look more of the CJ2+ (SN I've heard real world pilots have had some issues with the CJ2+ FADEC and many would prefer that the CJ2+ actually came with the attenuators instead LOL) Overall this is a fantastic little jet that in my opinion absolutely flys like a dream by hand. Give the FDE guy a promotion, seriously!
Come on Carenado, you've got the base right here, Please make me a CJ2+, (along with a King Air 350i and PC-12NG! you have bases for these too).....Im just sayin'!
