I'm confused, it is Saturday the 7th, and has been for quite some time. Also, the A2A P40 was released today.

hi,I don't think that twins such as the Baron are good for sightseeing. The aero commander with its high wings is very fine. Try Milton's shupe aerocommander, the flight model is very good . It is free and there is a FSX compatible version releasedhttp://www.flightsimonline.com/ac500wood/The original FS 2004 version works too but the wheels texture file has to be converted if I remember rightly

+1For me the best 'sight seeing' & scenery discovery plane is the Flight Replicas Super Cub. Perfect visibility, perfect STOL capability and much faster than a Cub

Accusim Cub - fantastic for slow sightseeing and getting into those small strips..RealAir Scout -another super little aeroplane for low slow and short strips..

I have discovered DoDoSim Bell-206 Jetranger as a good scenery look-out office. It will keep You busy during flight, but it has a lot of glass in front and sides.

I have to say my trusty A2A Cub with Accu-Sim. Low and Slow!Cheers,Clem

I like the Aerosoft DA-20, the IRIS DA-40, A2A Piper Cub, and Ant's Drifter, not necessarily in that order...

Cheers,

I still say that the Flight1 Cessna Citation Mustang is a wonderful plane for VFR flights. You just have to keep it in "landing mode", and it quite happily cruises around at less than 100 knots.
