Here are my favourites - do note that these are across multiple sim platforms (P3D, MSFS 2020/2024)

Airliner - B737ng (all variants) from PMDG and Fenix A320 series, Ifly 737 max is also in this list too. I was going to put 777 and MD11 in there too but unfortunately due to real world commitments I do simply do not have time to do any long hauls although I do fly short hops here and then.

Turbo prop - Has to be Majestic Dash Q400 pro version on P3D. So far have not found any turbo prop commuter that even comes close to majestic Q400.

Bush flying - Black square's Caravan professional and their Duke collection, Can't go wrong there.

MEP (multi-engine piston) - Barron professional from Black square, Top notch and best MEP you can fly in the sim so far. A2A's Aerostar is also good option if you want a fast MEP. Personally though I like Barron tiny bit better then Aerostar but that's just my opinion. Cows DA42 is also in there but I prefer old analogue gauges than glass cockpit G1000.

SEP (Single Engine piston) - A2A's Commanche, This has to be my top choice for SEP, So much so that I have done 2 transatlantic crossing in this. Followed by Black square's Bonanza professional which is also another good high performance SEP. Cows DA40 is also good choice for low level VFR flights.

Business Jets - C750 from FFX, This by far the best business jet I have flown so far, The new phenom and sovereign are potentially good candidates too but I do not own them yet so can't comment from my prospective.

Of course there are more addons to this list but these are ones I would say fit the best for me at least. If I were to choose only one from the above - I would choose Majestic Dash 8 400, By far the most advanced airliner I have flown so far in terms of flight dynamics, physics and systems simulation.

  • He says "only one" then lists 57 in dozens of categories! 😆 @UrgentSiesta 😉 I'll go hardcore like some of the other guys above, and just stick my stake in the sand with one aircraft addon :- BLACK S

  • Any of the high quality aircraft from MSCENERY🤣🤣🤣

  • Yeah, that’s a cop out 😆 I think a lot of these add ons now are so good they’d support the use of just the host sim and a single add on, and you’d still be entertained .Like back in the old days wher

Have you tried the improvement mods for the Default Mustang? Seems pretty nice!

I think airplane addons are for guys like shoes are for women.

you can never have enough, and there’s always a different one for each occasion!

And I’m totally in board with it!!!

The default Mustang looks too plastic The AH one looks excellent and sound great with the Echo 19 but is a female dog on occasions. Believe my I've spent hours with it and at one point I had it nailed only on the next flight it kicked me in the gonads...Again! Then AH brought out an update 1.8.1 I believe. Ahah! Is this what they should have done in the first place? Er..No. Right that's it! You're outta here. Goodbye.

As for improvement mods, there's been quite a few people who have tried to right AHs wrongs but it's like putting a plaster over a, a, a, an amputation. Anyway, I am at peace now it has gone.

I keep reminding A2A that they “owe us” their version converted from P3D. 🤣
