Things it is probably not: Beech Starship Avro Canada Avrocar Dornier Aerodyne Boeing V22 Osprey De Havilland Aircraft Company DH106 Comet AV-8A Harrier Armstrong Whitworth F.K. 10 Yakovlev MC-21

For me: A2A Comanche Got Friends Wilga FSReborn Sting S4 Ants Tigermoth Black Square TBM850 ALSO have heard good things about the new Black Square Duke and Turbine Duke but do not have them yet.

Neofly is worth mentioning as a free option. It is not as sophisticated as some of the other VA you pay for - but the basic career for just you flying is free. You only pay if you want options like managing other pilots.

The Wilga with doors removed (one click to get the doors off) has great visibility. Yo can also paddle the float version about on the water after you land 😄

+1 on the Bronco, fun and pretty good for freeware. Cockpit viz is fantastic. You can find it here: https://flightsim.to/file/61093/north-american-rockwell-ov-10-bronco

OK ... So NVIDIA claim that GeForce Experience 3.23 can do it and save a genuine JXR format HDR screenshot .... https://www.nvidia.com/en-in/geforce/release-notes/GFE/3_23_0/Rich/gfe-v3_23_0-rich-release-highlights/#:~:text=Press [Alt%2BF1] to,accurate viewing of HDR screenshots. HOWEVER ... even if you DO manage to take a HDR screenshot in true HDR - it is still going to look washed out and truly awful on someone else's SDR screen, as they cannot display HDR. The best you will manage is a screenshot that looks OK on someone else's HDR screen. There are HDR to SDR converters around, so I suppose you capture in HDR and convert back to SDR, but no idea whether the end result looks any good. Personally - if I intend making vids or screenshots, I just turn off HDR in my display settings before starting the game and then make sure the game has HDR disabled and work in SDR. TLDR - the main issue is even if you get a genuine HDR screenshot it will only look OK if viewed by someone else who also has a HDR screen.

Kittens, food and people shuffle dancing ...

Talk to any one in the military of countries like the US or UK and ask them out of their several thousand hours on type for whatever they fly, how many of those hours were actually spent shooting at things. Chances are for most the answer is zero, even in training getting to fire off multi million dollar live ordinance is going to be extraordinarily rare.

One of the few planes I purchased in the early years of the sim that occasionally still gets flown.

Seems to me it is mainly sexy and not-quite-so-sexy ladies shuffle dancing.

None of them make a Blackhawk.

Yes, but why only two blades ?

Counter rotating props with only two blades. Be interesting to know the engineering decisions behind doing that. Better top speed ?

They need to be added to Neofly by the Devs manually. If there is any aircraft or livery missing Neofly has an option wh3re you can submit the details and they will add it in the next patch.
