April 2, 201313 yr In be 4 lock :-) Why do they ignore good planes Everyone has different opinions of a "good plane"What is good to me might be rubbish to you Also some of these older planes, might be hard to get performance data ect to make them realistic Brent Lewis
April 2, 201313 yr Seeing this list as a wish list, I can say that I too would really like to see some more good turboprop airliners for FSX, not only the upcoming Majestic Dash 8, especially I'd like to have an ATR 42/72 series that is up to today's visual standards, though the existing one is nice. Regarding the CRJ, I'm pretty sure that there is some progress, but according to the Aerosoft previews the developer who is responsible for programming the systems does not do programming for a living but as a hobby, so this will take some time. (However, now that AS has taken over Digital Aviation, they could really work on the DA Fokker VC, which was promised a long time ago, and is really the only downside of the otherwise excellent DA Fokker.) Everyone has different opinions of a "good plane"What is good to me might be rubbish to you I totally agree with that, and I'd like to add that a plane that one really wants might seem completely unnecessary to someone else.

April 2, 201313 yr I think that is an abusive comment. LOL wow ok. And at any rate, how many guys have never acted like that before? He did not say "you are a..." big difference btw. Posting before the topic is closed And Thin Blue Line Regards :Big Grin:
April 2, 201313 yr Why do they ignore good planesbecause most sim pilots do not know how to actually fly. Old planes require a lot more knowledge than today's airliner. Well, actually, they do not or not much more but modern airliners have a lot of helping equipment on board. Tebin Ulrich
April 2, 201313 yr As I like airliners I would add the following : DC-8 DC-10 A-380 (a must have) A-340-600 (a must have) 737-300/400 (a must have) Regards, Albert Miu CPU: Intel i7 4790k @4.6Ghz GPU: ASUS GTX 1080 8GB OC Motherboard: Asus MAXIMUS VI Hero RAM: Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB 1866mhz PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA 850W G2 Case: Corsair VENGEANCE C70 Cooler: Corsair Hydro Series H110 Monitor: BENQ 1920x1080 Windows: 10 x64 Professional X-Plane 11 Group: Facebook

April 2, 201313 yr Well we know the 737 400 can be scratched soon, thanks to Enigma! Yes we know. Let's all pray that it will be a finished product. I don't know any project by Enigma!

April 2, 201313 yr Commercial Member Piper Navajo What about FSD's Piper Navajo? I found it to be nice bird to fly.
April 2, 201313 yr How about the HS Trident and VC10. VC10 particularly. It is only honourable to do the vc10 since it is close to final retirement. The VC10 is an awesome performer can could oretty much fly from most airports, and you have to agree, it i a beautiful plane. For the Trident, well they thought it was capable of breaking the sound barrier!
April 2, 201313 yr Last I heard about an A380 was that NLS was working on one but the last update w/pics was from May 2011. http://www.friendlyflusi.at/index.php?page=Thread&postID=226487#post226487 Chris Ferguson PC Specs(Rebuilt 1/11/19): i7-9700K - Non-OC'd, EVGA RTX 2080ti, G.Skillz 16GB Ram 3000mhz, EVGA SuperNOVA 1000w PSU, Cooler Master ML360R, ASRock Phantom Gaming 4 MoBo, 2x 2TB HDD, 1x 1TB Samsung EVO SSD, 1x 220GB WD SSD

Do you think they're still working on it? It looks like they were at least getting somewhere. Lee
April 2, 201313 yr After reading this thread all I can say is if you want something so much read the SDK and build it yourself. For me the greatest thing about MSFS is that when you finally get bored being a "Bus Driver" you can still use the sim to go and do something else. Don't like your home airport, make the necessary changes. Your favorite plane just doesn't feel right to you, fine tune it. Don't like ATC ( I hate it ) become a bush pilot and fly "Off Grid". Me, I am a lazy "Scenery ######" and will freely admit that John V and Company have figured out how to separate me from my money. When compared to the many hours of research and effort they invest in their products, the price is cheap. The point that I am trying to make is that you do not have to sit and wait for someone else to do it, you can do it yourself. All it will take on your part is time, research, and effort. The choice is yours, build it, do without, or wait for someone else to do it. We are so lucky that there are so many in this hobby who are willing to share their efforts with us, be thankful that they are there. It makes no difference to me if it's freeware or payware, I am just glad that it's there. I would love to have a Super Sherpa to ply the mountains with but I am not willing to do the work to build one so I will just hope and wait while I enjoy what I have. Dale "Gypsy Pilot" Evans

Dale "Gypsy Pilot" Evans Brilliant post. In fact, probably the only worthy response to the Original Post. You could delete all posts between the OP's and GypsyPilot's reply above, lock it, and be done. :smile:
