I liked their Accusim.

But We have the WB SIm, and the justflight and carenado PA28, sure... but not the same thing...

Randal did a nice job with the P51...

But I don't get the same feeling with the spitfire avalaible than the A2A..

YES! Couple hundred hours in that one P3D. Did several repaints as well.

Why no the C172, the PA28 or warbirds they did in FSX/P3D ?

I’m guessing no 172 because the sim already has multiple versions - built-in, freeware and commercial.

To each their own I guess but notice that, while it may not interest you, there's a lot of buzz here for the Legacy from others.  Many of us flew the Real Air Legacy back in the day, loved them, and have long hoped someone would do a good one for MSFS.

I owned their 172 in P3D and would have zero interest in it if they brought it over.  There was nothing wrong with it, it's just that after I bought it I was reminded why I transitioned out of a 172 in my real world flying as fast as I could as it just didn't work well for the kind of flying I did.  Turns out the same thing was true in the sim.  Go figure.  And as others have noted, there are already multiple options out there for the 172 as well as pretty much all of the PA28 lineup.  That market is well saturated.

The warbird situation is a bit of a head-scratcher, I'll give you that.  While not personally my thing, I know the civilian Mustang was hugely popular and it is a bit of a mystery as to why they've not brought that one over.

Agreed there are already options for the C172 available, but none are modelled as well as the A2A one for P3D. Even the WBSim C172, although a good representation of a C172R/S, does not accurately model the startup procedure for that type of 172. A2A had it nailed back in the day. I am still hoping for an upgrade of their older work to MSFS 2024.

I wouldn't see any sense in bringing a C172 or PA28 into 2024 as there are already excellent models available.

Not to mention those planes are dull and boring.  

The Legacy is a pilot's plane.  Plenty to do or you might kill yourself.

I see where you're coming from, and I'm very happy about the announcement (flew the RA Legacy a LOT in FSX/P3D), but... at the risk of sounding like a broken record 😉 I was really hoping for something more utilitarian, like a Cessna 185, 206 or 210. At least in FSX/P3D, the less-refined models such as Carenado's 185 could be modded by guys like Bert or Glenn to fly and operate properly...

Like others the legacy isn't really my preferred type of plane.

But from A2A the exceptional quality means it's something I will buy AND fly and maybe I'll discover for myself  what's made the plane so popular for other people in previous sims

I can get onboard with a T206 or something like that.  T210 - yes I would love that from A2A.  The Carenado one is just okay at best... even with some mods I use.  I just get bored of the 172 and piper trainers.  That's what I've flown the most of irl and they're boring lol.

It just looks so beautiful, with those streamlined and aerodynamic curves... yummy

Fun fact this paint was in the Realair version so long ago....

There's no question the other versions aren't anywhere near as good, but it seems obviously that the fact they exist would impact sales for an A2A version.

Ultimately A2A are a business and I can see why they would want to do something else (though the situation with the FSW Legacy doesn't seem great for anyone)

Except for me cause the Legacy is my absolute favorite aircraft of all time LOL.  What are the odds we get the same plane (kinda) from two excellent devs 🙂

Maybe, but definitely not ideal for either set of developers

They’ve previously stated that they will eventually be bringing their entire portfolio forward. 

so there’s at least some hope for Civ Mustang guys like me 😁

They’re just not at A2A’s level, tho. 
eg the JF Turbo Arrow won’t climb above 9,000 feet, and the rudder work required is excessive. 

Great addon and much improved over v1, but to this day I only fly the JF Piper in XP - with the REP upgrade.

In re the 172, it’s still one of the most commonly used trainers, afaik, so a study level A2A would be a boon for serious students. Or, they can choose the AFL’s in XP, which are fantastic.
