I have been flying the Comanche A2A exclusively for a long time and now I want to try something else. I'm looking for an aircraft with the most accurate flight pattern and feel possible in MFS. What do you recommend?

WB-Sim Cessna 172, if that kind of aircraft is of any interest to you:

Black square dukes to be released soon-ish.

Honestly I also enjoy their bonanza though.

Blackbird Cessna 310R

Don't own one YET but done lots of research/manuals/videos etc and the Flying Iron warbirds, Spitfire & BF109 look....in the same ballpark as A2A without the Accusim of course. I'm about to get one or both of them. Living near Biggin Hill I NEED me a Spit 😄

I also own the Comanche for MSFS and almost every release A2A made for FSX. Miss them all badly!

Flying Iron

only This one - 414 Cessna by FLIGHTSIMWARE.... 

and Learjet is also great 🙂

The Milviz 310 flies pretty well. 

 

Yep the 310 flies nicely by the books a really nice addon - slightly dated visually now and has a semi basic cockpit.  Still an excellent product though.  Superb sounds etc.

The Leonardo Fly The Maddog is excellent too.

I hear the Scrapyard Monster flies like garbage.

JPLogistics Cessna 152.

Any thoughts on the COWS DA42?

What about the new JF PA-38 Tomahawk that was just released? It has very similar features to A2A's Comanche, to include a walk around inspection. I can't believe no one has mentioned it yet 😊

I'll let you know here in awhile. Your comment peaked my interest and I'm somewhat qualified to offer my opinion (this was my 1st solo flight aircraft.)

Yeah. The Tomahawk is very good.

The ground handling is spot on. Similar to single Cessnas, the nose wheel is not directly connected to the rudder pedals. It was a windy day and I was getting bumped around while taxiing. Really nice.

The aircraft feels light and squirrelly and reacts to light turbulence similar to the Comanche. Training maneuvers (like steep turns, slow-flight, stalls and spins!) all felt very much like a good trainer should.

With flaps down and 60 knots, it was stable and landed nicely.

I'm impressed, but not surprised as they had this in x-plane I believe and it is JF.

The sounds are really good too.

Yeah, the British RAF used the Flying Iron Spit on MSFS to train their pilots to fly their vintage Spitfires. They gave some feedback to FI too, who then updated their version, so it should be very very good.
