In terms of the OP question, what is the most realistic GA?  Almost certainly the A2A Comanche followed by the WB-SIM  steam gauge 172 mod and the JP Logistics 152 Mod.  Runners up would include the Got Friend Wilga, Ant's Tiger Moth, the Black Square steam gauge Bonanza and Just Flights Warrior II .

Agree with what you say and your list mostly but what about the FSreborn Sting?

The Sting is by far the best LSA you can get in the sim. Full maintenance and wear and tear. The view out of the canopy is amazing. Real world Sting owners were part of the dev process and its licensed and checked by TL Ultralights. And you get a working BRS modelled if you want go down by chute 😉

Cheers T.

Who are you thinking of as that doesn't seem the case in the UK or US.

There any price difference is small and definitely not worth the unpleasantness of being at the mercy of marketplace release policies

Pretty much everyone living in a country where the currency is not USD, GBP, CHF, EURO, AUD and CND will pay much cheaper on the marketplace than outside. Just like with Steam games. Thought everyone knew they have regional prices.

Nope, no way to change currency or region to see what pricing is like elsewhere.

So I guess that's good for people who have the option to take advantage of that even - if you do have to put up with the very poor service and restricted choice at you're at least getting a discount.

Good morning,
What do you think is the most faithful single-engine aircraft to real piloting.
The one who reacts the same as in real life.
THANKS

I recommend that you try the free JP Logistics Mod for Cessna 152, it is apart from Comanche my favorite aircraft in the Sim, a Cessna 152 is the only aircraft I have flown in real life and JP's version is close to that experience.

What do you mean, nope? I didn't say anything about changing currency or region. What I said is the reality, people living in countries like Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Turkey and many other pay much cheaper for aircraft and scenery in the Marketplace than you pay. If you have a friend living in one those countries ask them.

Yes should have included the Sting.

I have flown a Steam Gauge fixed prop Sting S4 in real life and the Fsreborn Sting S4 is pretty spot on.

It is a bit harder to slow down coming in hot and a bit more cantankerous in a crosswind then the one I flew, but that may be partly due to the MSFS one having a CSU.

Overall the FSReborn Sting S4 is pretty spot on.

Software pricing worldwide is regional and basically what the market can pay.

I live in Australia and we pay vastly more locally than any other country in our region.  Annoying if you are Australian but it sort of makes sense.  Charging an acceptable price for Australian's in say Vietnam where the average monthly Salary is something like $USD300 a month, will simply  mean you get virtually no sales.

You should be looking at what a product costs as a percentage of the average persons weekly salary versus the same product in your country if you are trying to determine what constitutes a "fair" price.

Guess you need to tell that to @Matchstick, not me. It's him who doesn't seem to understand this.

I do now understand it but also can say that in much of the world any pricing benefit is nowhere near enough to justify using the MP
