>Wow, lots of replies, thanks a lot everyone! Awesome paint>on that last post also.>>Thanks again all>JeffWell, here I was happy with my PMDG 737 and Flight 1 ATR, and flying stock scenery plus the Norway Scenery add-on. I started reading this thread the other day, and the next thing you know I am flying the default C-182 around Alaska . I decided that Alaska is really a great place to fly, and probably would be really great with some new scenery. Anyway, last night I came home from work and downloaded Misty Fjords. Well, after flying the C-182 around Misty Fjords, I decided that I needed a plane that fit the enviornment better, ( maybe something that I could floats on , on occasion, so this morning I am back on the computer downloading the Aerosoft Beaver...........Oh well, it's only money :)

i dont have misty fjords yet, but i hear thats its awesome, if you want to do some othere great bush flying, buy all of the geordender airports in washington state and "service" those, that will leave you amazed at the qualityciao!Brian S

Donny AKA ShalomarFly 2 ROCKS!!!Pilatus made a follow on to the PC6, the PC12. Great combination of speed, load carrying, IFR and STOL performance. Powerfull thrust reverse equipped nose dragger. Pressurised cabin, has a flat rated turbine good for high altitude ops and prop RPM sets automatically, throttle quadrant management is easier than a Cessna 172! Condition lever has three settings; cutoff, taxi and FLY. Can cruise 250 kts plus at 25,000 feet 1500 NM range and does approaches at about 70 kts in a pinch. If I hit lottery it would become my personal plane in RL.Best Regards, Donny:-wave

I dunno, the visual model of the Aerosoft Beaver looks great to me. I can't comment on the realism of the flight model since I have no real world eqperience in the Beaver, but I will say from the perspective of flyability, it handles great. Growing up on the Kenai Peninsula in Alaska near Kenai (12 miles from it), I used to watch these things fly over head in masses. Hehe.I like the Aerosoft Beaver, Maule M-7-260, Piper Super Pacer, Piper Pacer, the freeware Scout, Junkers JU-52 (probably buchered that ones model number), defualt DC-3 and J-3 cub, and Bill Lyons' Waco.----------------------------------------------------------------John S.

The aeroCommander series by Milton Schupe and his team...if you like twins. Very nice freeware aircraft.adam

For ultra-short field operations I like Tim Piglet's Fi-156 Storch (search the internet for fi156_fs.zip and fi156tex.zip)or it's modern day version, the Morane Saulnier 500 and 505 (available here on AVSIM: ).The Storch's appearance is something else and it's great fun to land it crossways on a runway, with some headwind.RegardsOliver
