November 4, 20223 yr With the number of free aircraft coming our way it’ll be a hard choice which one to take to the skies with first. I was thinking A310 would be first, since that’s what I’m most looking forward to (especially in Air Transat and Canadian Forces liveries, hint hint 😀) but given that’s an aircraft I’ll probably want to do a longer flight in I figure I’ll do a bit of a survey of some other aircraft first. Maybe the Spruce Goose first since it’s so unique and a bit of a spectacle? Maybe the 407 to see how the next helicopter physics are working? Choices, choices, I feel like I have to pinch myself with all of this free stuff we’re getting. How about you?

November 4, 20223 yr Well, it really only makes sense to fly the Wright Bros. Flyer first. "That's what" - She
November 4, 20223 yr The A310. I don't think the Wright flyer will be flown more than once or twice by most people if it's similar to the previous incarnation in FSX. Intel Core i5-12600k, Nvidia RTX 4070 Super, 128 Gigs.
November 4, 20223 yr Helicopter and a glider first, just to have a look at the new physics/aerodynamics etc. Then probably the DC-3 and the Grumman Goose. The others will get an outing or two, but after that I'll be focused on the A310. I agree with @regis9 - all this is a bumper Christmas present. Thank you Asobo! 🙂 Surely not everybody was kung fu fighting. https://rationalwiki.org

November 4, 20223 yr Looking forward to the Beaver and I hope somebody posts the Habour Air livery for the Beaver shortly after it's released! I'm also looking forward to the iniBuilds A310! i5-12400, RTX 3060 Ti, 32 GB RAM
November 4, 20223 yr 21 minutes ago, Bobsk8 said: Never liked default aircraft. I will stick with the Fenix and Kodiak. Some of these will be high fidelity aircraft though, like the iniBuilds A310. Technically, we are getting some payware quality aircraft, much better than the typical default aircraft, in SU11. i5-12400, RTX 3060 Ti, 32 GB RAM
