That's a very varied list! Depending on your taste and what you prefer, I can give some advice. Seeing a few of those aircraft on the list are light (really light) singles, have you considered the Aerosoft Diamond Katana 4x? How about the A2A Cub (with accu-sim!) or Realair Duke (s)?

I'll answer your question.Go for the BN-2 Islander. It's brilliant. And you get a 30 day refund option if you're not delighted...Ian

Where do you want to fly?

Simmerhead - Making the virtual skies unsafe since 1987! 

all those on the list are good!

Wow, it's a tough short list. I have had the most enduring enjoyment from the C340 and the Islander

The Islander..

I think you should send the $ to me tonight!

Milviz 310....one of the best flight models out there(from what I have read from real 310 pilots). The only downside to this aircraft is that it doesn't have the RealAir type of Reality XP Garmin 530 integration into the panel.

My vote is for the Milviz too!

Bay Tower's RV7...... and get some change!

thanks so much for all the suggestions! .....I already have the A2A Cub and the RealAir Duke, so they're not on the list.so this thread was so so useful for me, because I had sooo forgotten about the Bay Tower RV7!! Saw it last week when I was strapped for cash then clean forgot about it. I have actually just d/l'd the Flight1 installer/purchasing gizmo for the Cessna 162 skycatcher but as someone else said on another thread, why is there not a single vid of this on youtube? ......... people too busy enjoying it maybe!The MilViz flight dynamics are legendary (and sound) but are those default gauges in the VC ?anyway.... Bay Tower RV7 it is......thanks you all!

!!@# I lost!
