is highly desirable but how to model this aircraft  ? Only a couple of prototypes are left out of the four which were manufactured. I also suppose the test pilots are very old men now.

I'll help you guys out here  😁

1.  P-47 Thunderbolt.  I'd be surprised if it's not already somewhere on their roadmap.  Over 15,000 built.

2.  F8F Bearcat.  A Rare Bear variant would be wicked cool.  About 1,200 built

3.  F7F Tigercat to round out the piston-engine Grumman Cat series.  Yet only 364 built, so hey still cool!

4.  Hawker Sea Fury.  A bit underrepresented with only 864 built but hey, we could also paint one up like Dreadnought and race it alongside the P-51's and F8F's!

My philosophy is to pick up aircraft which are a challenge to fly : temperamental, overpowered beasts, carrier-borne , etc.  If the aircraft is not after killing her own pilot,she is not worth to fly 😇

Well then how about a Lavochkin La-5FN or even a La-7?

That's a good point. We could start with a Cavalier Mustang and work our way up.   :-)

Aerosoft's Bronco was a good one. No plans to bring it over to MSFS, unfortunately.

Surely not everybody was kung fu fighting.

The Bronco would be a great aircraft to have in MSFS where flying low is a treat but I'd rather not have Aerosoft to make her again. I had the Bronco X in FSX and I was moderately satisfied as I recall.

There is a Bronco being developed for MSFS. Can't remember who is doing though I'm afraid. There were some preview shots on on the MS forum. Looks pretty good, but no idea how deep it's going to be.
