- In this edition of Why You Should Fly we take a look at the SimWorks Studios Daher Kodiak 100, an awesome single engine light utility plane capable of hauling people and cargo to the remotest of destinations.
This is a really great high-fidelity glass cockpit airplane, you get good compelex engine management and systems depth with great visuals and a really fun flight model, especially for STOL work.

Just got it, and cannot wait to get some stick time with it. Unfortunately, my line of work is working at an MRO, doing heavy C Checks on single isle aircrafts, which Unfortunately leaves me very little time these days, for my favorite passion, virtual flying. Thanks for the review, mate. 😅
Bought it just this past week. Already one of my favorite planes. Really nice plane with lots of flexibility for many runways. I did touch and go for an hour plus yesterday on a grass strip. Getting a good feel for the plane so I can check out some more difficult landing locations
Great job as usual! Wish you got more views. You deserve it for sure. All your content is great and always an instant click for me. Take care.
A great plane and definately one of my favorites in the sim. 😊👌
I've racked up alot of hours in the Kodiak. Especially since the update. Simworks did amazing job. I fly Pacific NW into and out of Alaska alot.
I just discovered you and I enjoyed your video. Good stuff! I used to live in Sandpoint, Idaho, where these were built. Great plane made by great people.
I watched your video on the H Jet & got me doing a nice flight bar the autopilot on landing I forgot to check my trim but landed her. You have sold me on the Kodiak, in otherwards I like your flying very like O.K. s Thank's Bud 🤩👍💚
Great video, I enjoyed it, Cheers!
Nice video.
This is much nicer than the one from Tandra for X plane 12 and also cheaper!
I'm really starting to consider switching to MSFS, but the new version!
Very nice
This will be my next addition to msfs. Typically fly airliners, but want a good solid bush type for some of the more remote areas. Cant very well land an a320 into the rangers station 😂
@VFR Simulations Thanks for the review. I'm looking for some top quality payware to fly and wondering what other aircraft would you say fall in the same category as the Kodiak in terms of flight dynamics?
Agreed on landing speed. With minimal time in the plane I like mid-80s give or take. Once into mid-70s the plane becomes a bit more unpredictable, and when I had to power up for a missed approach the plane torque hit pretty hard. I tried that again later and at 85kts or so it wasnt nearly as pronounced.
This might be a dumb question, but what is the tablet you are using @7:54?
You’re right and so I bought it on sale. ❤️🔥🌶
Enjoy!

I love Kodiak 100. But Do you know the landing light shotcut?
Please let me know if you know
Does anyone know how to silence low oil pressure chimes? It's getting very annoying having a constant beep during flight planning and before actually starting the engine. Think it may be a bug
thanks for the videos! just subscribed! where u get your airport ideas specially for the GA's planes, Im looking for some program or tool to generate new routes for me to explore maybe? thanks for any help!
Some browsing on Flightsim.to, some watching real aviation youtubers, and some history
Looks like fun, although I have no idea how you spotted that "runway."
Had to buy it and try it but this little buzz box is not for me, managed to get it started but could not get it to move off the parking bay, this is way too finicky for me. There are other similar planes that I will stick with.
Any way to enable the AI Piloting?
MSFS 2020 throttle / beta settings??😊
How do you get cargo and passengers in there?
Just bought it, having throttle issues on take-off. The throttle goes up and down by itself making it impossible to fly.
Is there; or will there be a float version? Should I buy now; or wait for float version?
If a float version is something that interests you I hear that's coming soon, not sure on the specifics
ingame???
Nice video. Not to be critical or anything, but you are operating the aircraft as if you have a piston powered aircraft and not turbine.
explain
@@Voltomess Like I said not to be critical, but first the terminology used is incorrect, there is no mixture it's called a condition lever.There is no throttle either it's called a power lever.
And you don't "crack the throttle open a little " for starting the aircraft ect. You can start with the prop in feather or full forward. A few other things are done incorrectly for startup as well, but like I said I don't want to be critical. It was a nice video that I enjoyed.
No worries at all definitely appreciate the feedback!
I don’t like this airplane, too overrated !
