Hey guys,

We all know that this SIM is in huge development.  what I want to know what is the best aircraft right now for MSFS2020.  I know mods are there for the Airbus but I am looking for GA plane (payware or freeware).  I have the complete MSFS Deluxe Premium - the works package.

There has to be 1 or 2 planes which do stand out and almost complete.

Please list the the top 2 GA birds.

Thanks

I'm currently using the default Cessna 172 with glass Garmin and LOVING it...

Prefer the King Air 350 due to speed, though I am really waiting for an even larger aircraft like the Dash-8 Q400, or even the Piaggio Avanti EVO. These are exciting to land at GA airports due the sheer challenge of it, plus they just feel awesome to fly and are super duper fast.

These larger twin turbos are what FS 2020 is missing, other than the 737 for airlines. So miss me having some of that Q400 crash-8 times.

Now, I love flying into GA airports and regionals, but I like to do so very fast and smoke past the guys flying the 172's.

Considering most of this thread is close to 2 years old, I'm sure the situation has somewhat changed. What would you guys say are the best GA aircraft available today?

From what I've gathered, the Flysimware 414 is up there as well as the Milviz 310. What other GA addons do you recommend? Are there any upcoming that I should be looking out for?

It's still mostly these.. Depending on what you like, can't go wrong with the Milviz C310, FSW C414, or Sting S4.  The one to watch out for is A2A's Piper Comanche which is entering beta "soon" so likely a 1Q23 release? (see https://a2asimulations.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=73656 & https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/620956-first-a2a-comanche-preview/)

Some of the Carenados are also good, the PA-44 and V35 are what I like that I own (I don't own all their planes). Just Flight also has some good ones, but kind of pricey.
