Smaller GA type aircraft with no FMC as well as the smaller commercial airline/cargo aircraft such as the DC3 and Dash-8. I also try to fly some of the larger airliners but not quite fully up to speed with that area of simming yet. I fly mostly my favourite payware aircraft but also some quite good freeware stuff.

If I'm pressed for time, I'll do an FS Nav flight or a VFR helicopter flight.I also fly PMDG with FMS depending on my mood. I often fly my Caravan on short VFR hops from KBUR to KSAN as well.

Hi everybody,I only fly airliners of the pre 1980 era. For example: Dreamfleet 727, David Maltby stuff, Stellan Hilmerby's DC-9, Vmax 747-200, HJG stuff, Tom Gibson propliners, Rick Piper stuff, Project Tupolev, etc. I try to do my flying according to the rules of the pre RNAV era. That means, the most modern navigation equipment i use is the Civa-INS and i use it only on early wide bodies and later 707 and DC-8 models for trans oceanic flights. Trans oceanic flights with older types i do with astro navigation. RegardsJakov

"button flying" is way too boring for me (never mind that it poses little challenge). So I'd answer "all kinds" (mostly steam-gauge jets)

I voted payware with FMC. But as others have said I fly all types. Right now in FSX I fly mostly the Barion 58 with the G1000.Regards.Bill

I use RC4 with a wide variety of payware aircraft, from which I expect full realism. So, if it's the Flight1 Piper Meridian, through the PSS Dash-8, all the way to PMDG 737 or PSS Airbus series- I treat them as full simulations. I usually start from cold and dark cockpits to ensure maximum realism. So I expect RC to deliver on the same level.RC4 sure does the job, and v5 should keep up the high standards.Eytan OrnsteinLLHA
