These new aircraft are available for logging flights. These two short runway aircraft flew for the Delta/NW express carriers

Rikoooo has an FS9 Shorts too.

There are also some new payware options out there for xplane and p3d. I have not yet found any freeware options for these sim versions so feel free to share links in this thread.

To obtain these ratings, you must have passed the E120 check ride and exam. Go to the pilot center, request additional ratings in the E120 program and the chief pilot will add them for you.

Be sure to type in .update in acars chat box to update your equipment list too.

Enjoy!

The Carenado Shorts 360 and Dornier Do228 are pretty good renditions. I've flown 1 leg each so far in each aircraft.

Just be aware that the Short 360 is forbidden to fly over trailer parks as it will become invisible.
