January 13, 201610 yr Yes, that's what I'm looking for. I want a light GA to do PURELY VFR (No GPS, No Garmin). Only me, ORBX, steam gauges, radios, transponder, and SkyVector I did research on the most common/known developers (Carenado, RealAir, IRIS, A2A, Aerosoft...). Nothing suits :( Is there a true freeware gem i am missing? Cheers N.-
January 13, 201610 yr Aerosoft Discus K or the Discus X (one is sans prop, the other has the prop you seek.)
January 13, 201610 yr Author Aerosoft Discus K or the Discus X (one is sans prop, the other has the prop you seek.) Oh, thats nice. I'm not really looking for a glider (despite the title), but thanks ! Cheers N.-
January 13, 201610 yr Author And the A2A Piper Cub doesn't do it for you? Somewhat yes, but it has no transponder... I want to fly on-line Also it has no radio in VC, and the accusim combo is out of my wallet right now Cheers N.-
January 13, 201610 yr Administrators Aeroprakt A-22 Foxbat I found this in the Flightsim.com Library. Didn't see it in AVSIM library. Looks interesting Charlie AronAVSIM Board of Directors-ADMIN/Moderator-RegistrarJust going to run a Chromebook and not upgrade to a Windows computer. Too many problems with the new Sims! 😱Trying to keep peace and harmony and the will of Landru on the site seems to be a full time job!
January 13, 201610 yr You might like to look at this one (unless you have already) Its payware quality but free http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/55526-get-your-free-mitchell-wing-v101-here/ Intel I7-4770 3.4Ghz 16 Gb RAM nVidia GTX770 2Gb Windows 8.1 64 bit P3D 4.4/3.4 FSX SE

January 14, 201610 yr That's strange ... and really nice! Downloading Also this I just tried downloading it and the link does not work.. Which link did you use? Bob. P.S. The links for the rest of the world does not work. The other link does. I am downloading now.
January 14, 201610 yr Aerosoft also had H36 Dimona(a motorglider), a DA20-100 Katana(a light GA derived from Dimona, which had a GPS that can be disabled), and a ASK21 MI motorglider. I knew it's not really gliders you're looking for, but just in case: There are plenty of freeware gliders and some with jet sustainers on Wolfgang Piper's site. Grab those with some gliding environment enhancer and...Flying is even more fun without the droning of the engines! Also, that DA-20 is pretty awesome with some A2A-deep modeling and is purely VFR by regulation. Jiang/James Wu FSX/A+SE

I did not get this Grab those with some gliding environment enhancer Could you explain more? Are there free versions? Cheers N.-

January 14, 201610 yr Try Wolfgang Piper's site, especially the Eigenstarters - http://www.fsglider.de/p_sg6_e.htm, they're excellent. He also has some conventional motor-gliders and many proper gliders. Cheers Keith ...
January 14, 201610 yr As mentioned above, Aerosoft's H36 Dimona is quite interesting, with reasonable appearance and textures. It includes a nice portable GPS (the outdated GPS III Pilot) and the C4 flight computer, which was made exclusively for gliding and soaring. Flight dynamics are fine. Engine shutoff (and restart) and powerless flight are simulated quite realistically. You may also consider Iris Simulation's Venture MG.1, which is actually Grob's G109 motor glider. Unfortunately, its VC is awful, but the outside appearance and the flight dynamics are ok. Soaring is also possible with shut-off engine. As RW glider and motor glider pilot I own both and enjoy them a lot.

January 14, 201610 yr Yep, look into getting CumulusX!, which add proper ridge lift and thermals to FSX. There's a free version of that with limited functionality too. Jiang/James Wu FSX/A+SE
