July 8, 20214 yr Some of the defaults are not to bad. The C152 is a bit like ones I flew years back when I was still flying though ground handling is scatty like all MSFS aircraft. There are also some hidden gems which may not have a "spot on FM" but are just nice to fly. The Diamond DA62 and the Pipistrel Virus being two that come to mind. The JF Arrows though are in a class of their own.
July 8, 20214 yr The good thing is Asobo does not have a take it or leave it attitude where the default aircraft are concerned. 5800X3D. 32 GB RAM. 1TB SATA SSD. 3TB HDD. RX 9070XT.

I would buy a payware aircraft after I got the sim, fly it, and if I felt it had an unrealistic flight model, I would leave it in the hangar, permanently. I think the first two aircraft that I really liked, were the PMDG and the Level D products. Then I moved to Majestic, and A2A . Now with MSFS 2020 I own a couple of Carenado aircraft, two I like , the Mooney and the Seminole and one I hated, the C 182. I really like the JF Arrow 3 and that became the one I flew all the time until I got the DC6, which is all I fly now, and probably will be for a very long time. I look at default aircraft as something they put in the sim, so people can fly something, and that's about it. I guess an exception to that is DCS world, but I am not into that kind of flying. The only MSFS 2020 default I tried was the steam gauge 172 and I thought that was fairly good. Haven't tried any of the other defaults, and probably will never. So you could say nothing has changed from previous sims? Default is still average. And you need as usual a good pay-ware add-on if you want realism? Edited July 8, 20214 yr by Doug47
