What aircraft do you want in Flight?

Recommended Posts

Easy question. Trust me when I say the dev's are reading this, so let them know! What aircraft do YOU want to see in Flight? For now, lets stick to the known target, small GA's. Once we get more destinations and ATC, then you can start requesting big iron. As I said to someone in the beta who requested an A-360, "What do you want to do with that in Hawaii? Take the entire population for a tour?"I personally would LOVE to see a Seabee. I know I know, "Its because you did one!" but I really fell in love with this bird!!! I think Hawaii is a perfect place for it! Tons of water, lots to see with its great visibility, plus its got room for 4 and is rugged as heck. Great bush aircraft. So lets here what aircraft you would LOVE to see in Flight?

That would be an MD-500. Nice chopper and its DEARLY missing in Hawaii. Swarms of them fly happy tourist's all around the place. A co-worker told me about one such trip in an MD-500. The pilot asked him "mind if I trim the hedges before we leave?" and he said "Nope. Do your best!" (My co-worker was a full PPL) and the chopper pilot literally trimmed the trees around the landing spot with his main rotor. The pilot said that with the speed of growth, he needs to do that once a week or the trees will over grow the landing spots around Hawaii!!! :Hypnotized:

Sounds like a nice place!And tourist flying seems like it would fit right in with the Flight! mission structure. Also give them some reason to scatter some helipads around and revisit some of the "rougher' (less polished looking) scenery areas.

I like the Twatter. Good pick! As for the Skyvan? :bad:Reminds me of an ugly Short C-23 Sherpa, and those things are ugly already!

A nice copter so you could have medical missions where you have to fly people to hospitals etc.Some gliders too so we can go gliding around all those ridges etc.

MD-500 would rock, and a Cessna 206. Gipps Aero Skyvan or even a Cessna 208 Caravan would rock...or Quest Kodiak...too many aircraft on my wishlist

If I was to pick a Cessna.. Definitely a R182 or 172RG.. I love them both.. If MS builds a Cessna they should throw us a easter egg like Meigs Field hidden on fictional island 200miles off the coast of Hawaii. Not asking for much right? :biggrin:

Yes. Cessna's entire lineup is perfect for Flight. You cant think of GA flying without a high wing Cessna coming to your mind. 172/152 line is the single most produced aircraft ever. NOT having it is shocking.

I'm up for a high performance GA plane like the Mooney or another turbo-charged GA plane. I really miss the G-1000, so please put a G-1000 in there too.

I like them speedy and er... fully functional... :wink: If they can deliver that, I am fine, no matter what the brand is. As it is right now, I would prefer bush capable planes with low wings though! Not having Track IR makes doing a circuit already problematic enough and I don't need high wings blocking the view even more when I am turning on to base. :wink:
