 AVSIM Freeware Aircraft Review: Aero Commander
Beginning in the late 1950s the Aero Commander light twins were to become a landmark design, a design that would fill the needs of the private owner as well as the smaller corporate buyer.
The Aero Commanders were also able flyers and I personally have logged time in them and they remain one of favored aircraft (real-world).
Using the same design, Aero Commander was able to accommodate the many needs of their buyers, by lengthening the fuselage and increasing the wing area (not to mention the many different engine combinations), so just about everyone's needs could be fulfilled.
