What have you been flying?

Captain Sim 767 -- a big, beautiful diva, like one of those opera singers who does Wagner.Quality Wings 757 -- as smart as she needs to be and the largest wardrobe of any airplane I have.Wilco Airbus -- surpisingly decent for an older ride with graphics I've decided I can live with.CLS 747 -- we don't need no stinking FMC; nothing better for Kai Tak approaches.So I'm enjoying mostly mid-range complexity right now.

 

 

 

1. Carenado F33A Bonanza. A good looking GA with everything you need and more. My third Carenado plane (and the last one for some time, I think.)2. Carenado C185RG II. A nice looking GA with just about everything you need. My first Carenado plane.3. Carenado C185F. A nice looking GA. My second Carenado plane, which I hardly flew in, after which I decided not to buy another Carenado plane. I lied. (See 1. :( )4. FSX Ultralight. Every now and then I jump into this one to enjoy new scenery up close.You would almost say I like Carenado. Well, I'm not a big fan of their let's-sell-a-beta-version-to-see-what's-still-wrong-with-it method, but specially the Bonanza is simply great (apart from some small errors and bugs). I like the old and used looking VC's a lot more than the brand new VC's other devs create.I wish I could have added the Aersoft Airbus X to my list, but unfortunately I can't just yet...

A2A's Accusim B-17 and Plane Design's Avro Lancaster - two wonderful replications of the real thingSimCheck's A300 - we don't need no steenkin FMC either with this oneAeroSim's B777 and B747-400D - by default these do need a steenkin FMC to replace the very simple one it comes with, but once that's in there courtesy of ISG, it's good funSkySim's DC-9 - no fancy dials in this one either, but plenty of thrillsAl

Over the last couple of weeks have enjoyed flying a variety of aircraft, from Airliners to GA and even Amphibians:Airliners:-PT Tu-154M - truly the best.... I spend the majority of my FS time in this beauty...... who needs an FMC......-Captain Sim B757 - this is a relatively new edition to my FS arsenal, I find I quite enjoy it-Level-D B767 - always good to fly in-Wilco/Feelthere B737CL - I've been neglecting the classic 737s and have decided to spend some time in them-David Maltby's VC-10 - who need an FMC when you've got the CIVA INSVintage:Milton Shupe's Beechraft D18S and the Shockwave/A2A B-17 Flying Fortress - I really enjoy the flight dynamics on both of these.GA:Whenever I fly GA I usually go for one of these two, they are really remarkable:-Yuzefov and co Yak-18T - quite possibly the most complex and challenging GA to fly in FS-Xomer's Antonov An-2 - second most complex and challenging GA to fly in FSand when not flying Russian GA:-Fravin's Cessna 150 - truly a brilliant 3D model and VC, with enjoyable flight dynamics that feel quite real - it can easily stand up to and beat any payware equivalents.-Piper Warrior PA28-161 and Piper Seneca PA34-200T from Just Flight Flying Club, getting quite dated now but I still enjoy flying them - they've got good flight dynamics (I've replaced some of the gauges with superior freeware from Thierry Pujol).Amphibian:Lynn and Bill Lyons Grumman Goose - best thing for cruising around GAP's Greek sea bases, I even like this better than a Twin Otter or Beechraft D18 with floats

I tend to stay away from the default aircraft unless I fancy a blast on a chopper, other than that:Flight1 Mustang, Eaglesoft Citation X v2, RealAir Duke, Lionheart Quest Kodiak and Carenado Mooney - oh and most definately the L39, my favourite aircraft to explore a new area .. .. ..G

I have 671HRS on Eaglesofts Cessna 551 (Citation II) I guess I must like it. Cockpit graphics are good but not necessarily the best. It does the job of taking Execs and VIPs all over the world. For shorter trips I use the F1 PC12. Bit of a frame rate hog but has excellent Virtual cockpit graphics and lands on a dime.For personal use I like the Real-air SF-260 or Carendo's Mooney (without the awful shaded acrylics). As for heavy Iron (or is it Aluminium OVercast) - Who wants to be a bus driver? :(
