From the Avsim Library Category: Flight Simulator 2004 - Original Aircraft Beechcraft Model 18 Volpar on Amphibious Floats File Description:The Beech 18 was one of Beechcraft's most enduring designs. In production from the late 1930's until the early 60's many are still in use all over the world.

BFU has a nice listing here: http://www.avsim.com/bfu/index_Aircraft.htmlMy personal favourites are the Maule from FSNordic and for the heavier work, Milton Shupe's Beech 18 on floats or the PAD Twotter.

I have the Captain Sim C130 Float Plane. Good fun landing that thing on small lakes.http://captainsim.com/products/c130/models/cl.html

the Carenado 206 is probably tops on my list. There are many great options but the 206 seems to me to do it all seamlessly and I think it's Carenado's showcase package, the Aerosoft Beaver has it all plus nostalgia and the Aerosoft Super Cub is just a ball, probably best bang for the buck $10 I ever spent for FS9.The freeware maule is great and the Aerosoft Dornier 27 is really a total experience. Get them all, I did. Real Air Scout also right at the top of the list.Glacier Bay (freeware here), Misty and Tongass Fjords, Vancouver+, Victoria+ ( a freebie here at Avsim) and Freight dogs and you will have full immersioon.

Andrew, Your certainly welcome to use my Alaska AFCAD's that I made a couple of years ago. They served me well.http://www.members.cox.net/jaymom2/flightsim.htmlHarold
