I'm always astounded by the advances that occur in the Flight Sim industry, and although most of my time is constrained due to work, I still like to pop in every now and again and see what's happened.Every now and again I come into this forum and ask this question, so here I am asking it again... I'm considering doing another around the world flight... are there any new quality freeware prop aircraft in which to do it? Of course I'm looking for nice textures, VC, etc. I have yet to find one that suits my taste precisely, I still use the default aircraft for most of my flights (I don't like to 'dirty' my sim up too much).Any ideas guys?Thanks,Kenneth

Mike Stone's Stratocruiser looks quite up to the task, and would add an air of adventure to your flight..! Here's a link to it:http://ftp.avsim.com/library/sendfile.php?DownloadID=17146

Well, I know your post has 'FREEWARE' in caps, but I really recommend the Flight1 Cessna 421C Golden Eagle. Yes, it's payware, but it's without question worth the $20 or so US Dollars IMHO.Ryan-Flightpro08 :-coolTaxiwaysigns.com
