B-17/B-25/B-29 wanted

Featured Replies

Hi there. I'm currently seeking all of them.... I did search and found some but I'd like opinions which is the best. VC, 2D panels, sound, AI variations etc are welcomed.

I know there are several B-17's available, but really the only B-25 that has a fully functional VC is the MAAM-Sim B-25J "Briefing Time".

oh ok. I don't care if there is vc or not. A good package will do. Sounds 2d cockpit and an AI variant. tks

Hi. I don't think there is any doubt that the best B-17 out there for FSX is the superb Accusim B-17G from A2A - it's not cheap but IMO it's worth the price! As far as the B-29 is concerned, as far as I know the only one available is from Virtavia - it is just OK but does cost less particularly, as is frequently the case it is available at a reduced sale price at the moment. However if you want the maximum degree of immersion from one of these classic bombers I would strongly recommend the A2A B-17.

If you just want a 2D cockpit, then check out Roy Caffin's freeware B-25J.  There are no AI B-25's that I am aware of.
