May 24, 201313 yr Just purchased the 'North American Airstrips volume 1' and got reminded how much I enjoy bush flying. Any suggestions on some aircraft I can add to my collection? Currently I have the SibWings bird dog, Aerosoft wilga, Aerosoft beaver, RealAir scout.
May 24, 201313 yr Sounds like you've got what you need! Hard to see how you could top that :rolleyes: Bert
May 24, 201313 yr Yeah not much to top those. I might throw in the Carenado 185 tundra and maybe the Flight Replicas Super Cub. ORBX- the way to go Sincerely, John McGee
May 24, 201313 yr I second that Carenado C185 Tundra. She's a blast to fly in & out of tight strips. jime James D. Edwards
May 25, 201313 yr Maybe the Carenado Caravan? Looks great, flies nicely IMO after the optional patch and can land nearly everywhere, too. Florian
May 25, 201313 yr BN2 Islander Dan George (woodhick)Check out Greenbrier Aero Club, the VA for and about the GA pilot.
May 25, 201313 yr @scottthefsxguy As Bert said... you have some goodies. For the tough stripes (what you will find in the Orbx CRM) I will second the mentioned: A2A Cub Carenado C185F Flight Replicas Super Cub Another fantastic one: FSD Pilatus PC6 Porter
May 25, 201313 yr A bunch of us do a lot of low and slow Ga. My advice is to avoid the cubs as they are too slow if you fly with others. The c337 is good after the flooding fix' as are a few of the other Carenados after undergoing various tweaks and fixes from various geniuses. Birddog is excellent as is.
May 25, 201313 yr My advice is to avoid the cubs as they are too slow if you fly with others. Unless your buds are also flying Cubs.
May 25, 201313 yr Author Failed to mention that I do have the BN2 Islander and C337 but gonna do some checking on some of the other suggestions. Thanks mates
May 25, 201313 yr I'll second the vote for the Carenado 208B. After the patch, it's fantastic to fly in and out of small little strips, and has quite a bit more power than a Cub or a MixMaster. If only Carenado redid it and added 3D gauges, then we would have a top notch bush aircraft.
May 26, 201313 yr Commercial Member I'm hugely fond of the C-185. It's my number one go-to bush plane. It might not be as shiny as some of the others, but that's part of the appeal I think. Lionheart Creations has a really nice Piper Pacer for something even more rustic. Their incoming Fairchild 24 looks pretty nice as well. Jim Stewart Milviz Person.
