?? Besides the 172 (even though I never use so maybe it does have issues too?).

Seems every plane I try has an issue or 5.

No sir.  I have not found one yet that doesn't have something Inop or broken.

And herein lies the 'insult to injury' that the Deluxe and Premium Deluxe editions represent: "pay us more for even MORE broken/incomplete aircraft!"

That being said, opinion seems to be that among the new aircraft in FS24, the HU-16/G111 is among the best. The developer is the same guy who made the Savoia-Marchetti S.55 from FS20. He's quite active on the official forums and has been very responsive to requests for bug fixes and new features; unfortunately thus far he's been held back by the glacial FS24 update queue, but there are lots of improvements now in the pipeline.

I'm confident that, just as with FS20, many of these bugs will eventually be fixed. But it's downright deplorable that MS/Asobo released all these aircraft in this state.

True, but there are planes that pretty much allow you to complete a flight from A to B

1. Cessna Citation Longitude
2. Asobo Cirrus Vision Jet
3. Pilatus PC-24 - VSpeeds are all wrong, don't use the AT. And, preferably, use VS rather than FLC.

The A330 has worked well for me. And, at the other end of the spectrum, the AeroElvira Optica.

Fortunately, I bought Deluxe Premium for the airports.

The quality of default aircraft have improved immeasurably in 2024, but they should have held them back until they were finished.

I saw this the other day, the default 737 in FS9, the overhead panel is just an image with a few switches. Microsoft FS9 Flight #2: Flying the Stock 737 in FS2004 (Boeing 737-400) - YouTube

 

 

I really don't know, but I can name those I've been extensively using and enjoying:

Inibuilds:

- A320N, A321N, A330, A400

Not being to the level of the best payware addons they're still very good, and surely above any default aircraft of similar complexity available in other platforms...

Cue the high 5s from the dev workshop 😎👍

At least one can rely on payware addon aircraft to be 100% working at release. None of them ever require updates after purchase.

I have just two default aircraft remaining. The rest have been disabled. 

And those are?

I quite like the cargo 172 so I've kept that and I've just put the Optica back as you can finally remove the co-pilot. Whether I'll keep it or not I don't know but I like it as of today. The rest were zapped. I have the Deluxe version.

There's a cargo 172?!

My md11f shakes its head in shame...

Indeed. 

It would also be incredibly ironic if the four "Make Good" planes come riddled with issues & bugs, wouldn't actually surprise me if they did.

The SR22
