They do? Other than CS, I'm not aware of any! There are some like PMDG that has the controls, but actually does nothing, but CS is the only one that I know of that is completely functional! If you know of any others, please list them.

CS is?

CS is?

 

 

CS = Captain Sim

 

Planes are rather close to SDK, buggy and haven't been finished in several of their recent releases. Probably their old 'steam-gauge' releases are above their own average and, maybe, their B767. They have a RW B767 pilot on their development team, which kind of explains that. Be warned as far as their 737, 757 and 777 are concerned!

Oh. I don't think that CS is better than PMDG. What do you think olli? SDK?

PMDG, FSL and Majestic are best-in-class.

 

SDK = Software Development Kit. This refers to addon planes which do not or hardly have any custom code.

Oh.However FSL has not been relesed yet. is that Net Framework 2.0 Software Development Kit?Still don't understand.  So we need to install that when we addon planes?

Oh. Because I buy for training. Concorde-X  suitable for training?  Actually I don't even really know what is fly-by-wire?Feel embarrassed :smile:

What do you want to practise in a Concorde? They've been out of service for a number of years by now - and they won't come back. (FSL made a fine in-depth model for your enjoyment in FSX, though, that's for sure!)

 

You can't practise FBW with them since FBW works differently in any other plane (Airbus, B777, Embraer)

 

FBW, generally speaking, is putting some computers between your flight controls and the control surfaces of your airplanes. These computers can help you controlling the airplane and prevent misoperation of controls. Details vary between aircraft ...

Oh. It's ok. I will go for Piper and Cessna for my training first. Because my take off and landing still not very good. 

I think no need to go for Bonanza. Could you share your experience ? First time you flight in FSX?

For basic flying skills the default airplanes will do, IMO: Cessna, Mooney whatever. There's enough variety built into FSX stock planes: single engine, two engines, piston-engine, jet engine, nosewheels and tailwheels, fast and slow - and even land and water!

 

As far as addon planes are concerned - only buy the models you're really interested in ... and from developers who can really do that particular type of aircraft.

 

I fly addons like Aerosoft Airbus, PMDG 737, 744, MD-11 and lots more - but I still use, now and then, the stock Maule7, DC-3, Goose, Trike and Extra.
