A couple of weeks ago @UrgentSiesta asked you: "If you could keep only one plane, which would it be?"

In the same idea, I'm asking you today: "If you could buy only 3 addons from now until FS2028, which would they be?"

It can be airplanes, sceneries, utilities, whatever you like, BUT only 3 addons ("Less is more" 😉). It can be existing addons or to be available.

I'm very happy already with FS2024 and I'm lucky enough to own already the vast majority of airplanes and helicopters I like: B777, A350, B737, A320, A36 Bonanza, Piper Cub, Mi-8. And the same for sceneries and must-have utilities.

So my choice comes down to:

Scenery: LFPG (by PESIM since Aerosoft resigned)

Aircraft : 787 by Vector (we've never had a high fidelity/study level 787)

I don't use my last credit 😅

Nice topic!

• Boeing 737 MAX 9

• Schiphol Airport (EHAM)

• Gran Canaria Airport (GCLP) and island

• Leonnardo maddog

• GSX

• AutoFPS

But it AutoFPS doesn’t count then the upcoming 741 from PMDG.

TFDi's MD-11

Flightsim Studio's Boeing 727

The next Flying Iron, Just Flight or A2A release ( whichever comes first ).

EDIT: Just been looking at development shots of Just Flight's A300B4 - I think that really is my third choice! 😍

1) UK2000 KCMI Champagne-Urbana

2) Just Flight PA 28 warrior

3) Flysimware Lear 35

I lived quite happily with a similar combination back in 1990 😉

Amen! For Lear 35a.’

Given my fixation on filling gaps in California, that occupies most of my list:

Scenery: KSTS, especially by someone like Dreamflight
Aircraft: still no EMB-120 by anyone

Non-California: someone other than FlyMex needs to do a detailed and properly updated MMMX

I’m probably being pedantic - as usual, but are we talking “buy” or “keep” or both? 😁

Can we still use the Defaults, since they can’t be uninstalled?

and yeah, my list definitely changes depending… 🤣

If it’s “keep” and “only”:

FSW Lear (Raw power & speed, steam gauge)

Aerostar BBS C-130J (as sophisticated as any airliner, fully glass cockpit + HUD, AND can operate from practically any airstrip - including aircraft carriers(!))

Taog’s HH-65B Dolphin (great balance of hand flying handling while also offering substantial automation & full IFR)

If it’s “Buy” and “Only”:

Embraer Praetor (as good as any airliner and seems to be “ultra” Hi Fi)

A2A Lancair Legacy (sport bike for the sky😎)

Digital Aeronautics Mi-2 Hoplite

And I’ll just cut myself off there 😉

ETA: the default scenery is more than good enough for me. Aircraft is where it’s at!

Mate,

You are seeking complexity where there is not.

I said "buy", I never said "keep" 😉

I think Jon may have misunderstood 😉

As for me, I would choose the following.....

• Pyreegue LEPA Palma de Mallorca

• PMDG Boeing 747-400

My third choice is actually freeware. Simply put, I want GAIST to be compatible with MSFS 2024 in AI Offline mode. Global Shipping 24 is OK I suppose, but it is no match (both in terms of variety, and also number of locations) for GAIST v7.1 Ultra. It really annoys me that GAIST is not compatible with MSFS 2024 at the moment. Why do Asobo always have to mess something up?

Maybe he will tell, I cannot be clearer when I say "buy" 🙂

where is the announcement of MSFS2028????????????????????????

There are currently no addons that are available that I want, that I don't already have.

Sounds like a nice problem, but when you're addicted to buying addons, it's misery when there's nothing to buy! 😄

So my 3 will be future releases (hopefully not too long) :-

1) Black Square Commander 114

2) A2A Legacy (but the release of the analog FSW Legacy would suffice!)

3) Got-Friends Taylorcraft
