I assume the OP isn't MFS-specific, so here it goes..

- ActiveSky for P3D;

- Navigraph for all of the civil flightsims I use ( Aerowinx PSX, MFS and even if not often, XP12 )

- MFS for Visuals, Earth including weather;

- PMDG 737 for MFS;

- Fenix A320 for MFS;

- Aerowinx PSX which I consider the most perfect flight simulation of an airliner I ever used, and can now use with MFS for the visuals - Example: 3. TC - AEROWINX, WIDEPSX AND MSFS2020 EKCH to ELLX - YouTube

- IL-2 Great Battles for ww2 fighters and other military aircraft;

- Condorsoaring for gliders;

- XP12 and the Toliss A319 specifically for the A319;

Aircraft:

PMDG737, FENIX A320, Maddog MD-82

Tools:

FSiPanel: Must have for training

Navigraph: Must have for IFR flying

Simlink/Simbrief

vpilot for VATSIM

GAIST

Many good mentions already... I would add FS-ATC-Chatter from Stick and Rudder Studios.

The only other one I would add is parallel42's FlowPro - this really speeds up and improves the workflow, and creates many 'new' opportunities. as well as many additional benefits like the ease of use of the camera and views - within the SDK limitations. 

For me, these are game changers:

• FSi Panel
• Real Traffic + PSXT (incl. FSLTL & AIG models)
• GAIST
• FS-ATC-Chatter

He posts this in the MSFS forum. Otherwise, he would have posted it in Hangar Chat? 🙂

Wrong assumption, this is the MSFS Forum ...

Navigraph Charts - most important software I have
FSLTL - adds so much life to airports and the air, is super easy to configurate and it's free
FSiPanel - lovely
Flow - pretty and useful

As the question is about software, not hardware, I'll say the software that I use with Loupedeck and Tobii 5 😉

Little Nav Map ( comprehensive and easy to learn - indispensable ).

GAIST  ( natch - I'm ex-Merchant Navy. Really looking forward to the live traffic version ).

ChicoMick's extraordinary Duxford. Without doubt, the best add-on airfield I have. The detail is mind-boggling.

As for aircraft, I can't think of a bad payware one I've bought, so this month's favourite is Flying Iron's Spitfire Mk.IX. I'm looking forward to them revealing the 4-engined 'heavy' they have in development.

MSFS - unquestionably the most absorbing and enjoyable flight simulator I've owned since taking up the hobby with Digital Integration's Fighter Pilot 40 years ago.
