COMMENT:
The 1962 B33 Beech Debonair plane has good side views and a good main panel but it does not have virtual cabin. Also it has a good outside textures with metal effects included. This plane also has good blincking lights. Another good point is that the wheels move while you are in the runway. The control of the plane is also very realistic and it is not exagerated. After all this is a good plane with excellent textures. I forgot to tell you another error in this plane the directional wheel is always blocked looking fowards except for turning the side the plane is turning. Also there are very good reflections in the lower part of the plane.
My rating is 8/10
