August 20, 200817 yr Level D 767. Can fly into many airports, great range, and the LDS767 is a fantastic addon.Nice thing about FS though is you can have all of your fav's on board!!!Mark. Mark CYYZ
August 21, 200817 yr Good question, and a real tough choice.After much thought, I would have to say the De Havilland Beaver. That is kinds strange as it does not have the hours of many others in my hanger, but it provides a lot for one aircraft: Good low end grunt, short field take-off and landings, decent speed, good service ceiling to get over mountains, decent range, at home on nice modern asphalt GA airfields as it is in the 'boonies' in the rough. And it has character. The biggest drawback is that I cannot put one of my RXP GNS units into it ;), but can improve the other radios with the 'default FS radio pack' from Friendly Panels (for FSX, and lo and behold, I found they would work in the Beaver too!).My second choice would probably be the Cessna 182Q, for many of the same reasons.Interesting enough, my Twin Comanche, Mooney, Dakota, SF260, Scout, Columbia, DC3, etc all have many more hours....but the Beaver can pretty much do it all and get pretty much anywhere the others cannot.
August 21, 200817 yr Agree...100%...Hand's down...my Aerosoft Beaver. Some times when I'm flying around, no where special, I'll pull the throttle and depending whether it's on floats or wheels, look around for a place to land. I'll either spiral, S-turn, or what ever, to lose altitude and put it down. That could be an airport, grass or paved, a body of water, or even a field or road. And, if you have a fairly good audio rig, then taking off with that roaring, wide-open 450 P/W radial may bring tears to your eyes the same way the music of Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake would do for some old pilot, ballet lover:-roll --Roger

August 27, 200817 yr No question. Dreamfleet 727. - I have more hours in this bird than probably all of my other addons combined (And I have a plethora).on a side note - I just installed the Yak-40.....and man am I impressed so far.
