January 5, 20215 yr Hi! I am looking for a highly realistic aircraft with good graphics. I found this aircraft (please see the attached link). The graphics are outstanding and the avionics and flight dynamics seems to be as close to reality as possible. Will you recommend this great flying ship? It's a very expensive addon so I would like to know if it's worth the money? https://secure.simmarket.com/virtualcol-shorts-regional-pack-for-fsx-p3d.phtml Informal Ken Wennerholm UTC +2 ESSA

Folks on this forum can steer you the right direction if you give us an idea of what kind of flying you like to do (e.g. airliners or general aviation, etc.).
January 5, 20215 yr Hi Ken, As far as I know, that plane is not especially popular/reputed in the community for its grahics, avionics or flight model. EUR 21.96 rather sets this plane in the low-medium price tag. For example PMDG and FS Labs aircrafts are over USD 100. FS2024

January 6, 20215 yr The Fisher Price plane looks good but it doesn't show as being available for P3d. Does anyone have it working in 4.5HF3? lol Thanks for listening, Kail
