March 29, 201115 yr I'm looking to populate the skies from the bottom up. I'm looking for all general aviation packages and have come up with this list so far. This list includes some of my personal notations, so disregard them.HTAI Single Engine CessnasUltimate GA Challenger 605Ultimate GA ChallengerUltimate GA Global 5000Ultimate GA Global ExpressUltimate GA Gulfstream 3Ultimate GA Cessna 402Ultimate GA Beech F90Ultimate GA Gulftstream 4Ultimate GA Learjet 40Ultimate GA Learjet 45Ultimate GA BBJUltimate GA Cessna 550 Citation (with model fix?)Ultimate GA Beechjet 400Ultimate GA Learjet 23Ultimate GA Library Beech C90Ultimate GA Library Learjet 24Ultimate GA Library HS125/and Hawker XP 800?Ultimate GA Library Mitsubishi MU-2Cessna 414David Cooper Beech 200David Cooper Beech 36 BonanzaDavid Cooper Beech 55 BaronDavid Cooper Beech 58 BaronWorld of AI Learjet 60World of AI Learjet 25World of AI Learjet 35World of AI Cessna 421CAlpha India Pilatus PC-12Project AI Dassault 900ANAI PA-28 IIIPiper PA-34 Seneca AVSIMPiper PA-28 Warrior AVSIMPiper PA-28 Archer II AVSIMCessna Citation I - AI BizjetCessna Citation III/4//650 - AI BizjetCessna Citation 750 - AI BizjetCessna Citationjet 525- AI BizjetGulfstream 5 - AVSIMGulfstream 2 - AI BizjetLearjet 31 - AI BizjetLearjet 55 - AI BizjetDassault Falcon 10 - AI BizjetDassault Falcon 20 - AI BizjetDassault Falcon 2000 - AI BizjetDassault Falcon 50 - AI BizjetAirbus Corporate Jetliner - AVSIMBoeing 727-100 Business Jets - AVSIM757/767 Charter FP'sIAI Westwinds - AVSIM?Challenger 850Which isn't bad. I'm having difficulty finding some of these packages, but I think I'll persevere and locate them all.But there are still more airplanes out there, for which AI models exist. Mike Cronin has donated several excellent AI models, such as the Cirrus SR-20, PC-6, Piper Cheyenne, Piper Malibu, DHC-2 Beaver, V-tail Bonanza, and an Aero Commander (to mention a few), none of which have flightplans. SBAI make a great looking Raytheon Premier, but no flightplans. Henry Tomkiewicz, bless his heart, is still lacking flightplans for his Cessna 404. It strikes me a bit strange that with all the effort that goes in to making a model, it falls short at the flightplans. Now Markus Brunner made GA-Traffic to generate random flightplans for general aviation traffic. However, I am concerned about maintaining the realism of aircraft movements with it. For example, if there are 2,000 V-tail Bonanza's in existence, I do not want it to generate flightplans for 4,000 aircraft. Call it stupid psychology, but I prefer prepackaged downloads where someone else has compiled the plans.So, my question is what am I missing? Am I missing any packages? Am I missing any flightplans? Am I missing any aircraft? Feel free to comment on my comments, leading to a comment on comment on comment relationship.
March 29, 201115 yr There are some GA packages here at AVSIM and also from ReggieF on his site. His use the default FS planes.
March 29, 201115 yr Author Right, and I've listed the ones I've found in the library. All of them, I hope. The default AI is not really applicable, as it has several drawbacks.
March 29, 201115 yr Hi,You mis-read my post. The Field's plans use the default planes but uses hand-made plans. They are not default.Now, if you don't want to use the default GA planes, then that is something different!
March 29, 201115 yr Commercial Member Causing AI flightplans to use other aircraft is a simple matter of editing the Aircraft.txt prior to compiling with TTools. Use Reggie's plans, but edit the aircraft.txt before you compile them so they use the HTAI aircraft instead of default. If you don't have TTools download it from one of the file libraries, read the documentation that comes with the package (ReadMe.htm), it's the best resource out there on building custom AI traffic for FS9.Jim

I've been using FS since I got a copy of FS2000 Pro. Really what I'm looking for is if I'm missing any packages or such.
March 29, 201115 yr Who is this "AI Bizjet"? Your list has some very interesting models by them but I can't seem to find any. Thanks! JasonFAA CPL SEL MEL IR CFI-I MEI AGI

Thanks!My apologies, that is a file in the library with flightplans for them. I haven't researched models, but I believe for the Dassault's the only model available is a Falcon 20.
