December 23, 20205 yr If you can wait until the 24th, the Gibbage Zenith 701 will be available for MSFS. I have the P3D version and will be getting the MSFS version. Edited December 23, 20205 yr by yurei My MSFS 2020 repaints: Flightsim.to - Profile of HStreet Working on MSFS 2024 versions.

You can't go wrong with either the Savage Carbon....or the Xcub. Savage- Undisputed STOL king....cruises at over 100. has rudimentary AP altitude and heading hold. Xcub- no slouch either when it comes to getting in and out of places. Has full AP and avionics suite, plus full AP with all modes needed for good x-country flights, and cruises a bit faster than the Savage. 172 G1000- if you're doing a longer distance....she has all you need, simple to operate. All those are high wing...and if you want to see what's below you....that is important. 🙂 Regards, Steve DraGet my paints for MSFS planes at flightsim.to here, and iFly 737s hereDownload my FSX, P3D paints at Avsim by clicking here

December 23, 20205 yr Any one of the Grravel mods over at flightsim.to - absolutely fantastic. I cant wait to try the Mustang one tonight! 😁 https://flightsim.to/file/5061/savage-grravel-monster-truck-in-the-skies Rob (but call me Bob or Rob, I don't mind). I like to trick airline passengers into thinking I have my own swimming pool in my back yard by painting a large blue rectangle on my patio.

December 23, 20205 yr The Icon! No AP (or deice) but everything else you could want. Great little plane.

December 23, 20205 yr I picked up Nemeth's Aerolite 103 Ultralite a few weeks ago. Pricey, but it's perfect for what you're looking for. I guess Nemeth is keeping their hand in the MSFS20202 game until it is ready for their stable of helicopters.
December 23, 20205 yr Stock aircraft, any of the 3 cubs, the SW121, or the CTLS are good. (The SW121 is actually a hidden gem I think, it will takeoff and land at 65kts in a very short distance but cruise at 128kts, and it has 'en route IFR' equipment...really neat little plane). Cessnas 'ok'. Mods, GotGravel's Savage Carbon or Grravel, or the Bush League Legends XCub mod. I haven't had a chance to try Grravel yet, maybe tonight.

December 23, 20205 yr For what your asking; Flight Design CTLS Right out of the box, best bar none. CPU: Core i5-6600K 4 core (3.5GHz) - overclock to 4.3 | RAM: (1066 MHz) 16GB MOBO: ASUS Z170 Pro | GeForce GTX 1070 8GB | MONITOR: 2560 X 1440 2K
December 23, 20205 yr You know it really depends if you are "sightseeing" from cockpit view or are just going to be wandering about in external view.
