The FSX/FS2004 Grumman AA-5 of Tim Conrad is great!

It's very easy to fly and really makes fun to do it! (But fly in VC-mode, it's just great!).

Personally I love Rick Pipers De Havilland Chipmunk (of course I learnt to fly on one so I'm biased) ;)

He hasn't uploaded the most recent version for FSX to SimV though... :-[ This may have been because of bandwidth issues, so maybe it would be worth contacting Rick from his home forum to see if we could get it uploaded here.

(PS that isn't a cue for someone else to do it instead.)

Where does it say that? It'd still be a bonus for SimV to have the Chippie V3 in the downloads sections. :)

There's a nice freeware Tomahawk out (same page as the AA-5):

http://www.simviation.com/fs2004props139.htm


And Lynn and Bill Lyons have created some of the finest freeware models of vintage classics...

Stinson Reliant and Tiger Moth:

http://www.simviation.com/members/fs2004vintage39.htm


Their Piper Tri-Pacer is AMAZING!!! so much fun!!!

http://www.simviation.com/members/fs2004props80.htm

And here's an updated version of their Globe Swift: not a beginner's airplane, but an excellent intro to high-performance singles, and a BLAST to fly; excellent model:

Well, the Lancair Legacy and the Christen eagle I have already and are two very good planes. Both of them very fast, but behave so differently one from the other in landing that are hardly comparable. The Legacy wants to be landed fast and furious, not a STOL that plane. The Christen you can land on a dime. With the right training and some headwind it suffices the width of a runway (I was able to make it land successfully on a helipad once, and with only something like a 8 knots headwind)

Suggested, if you take the Christen Eagle, is to download and install the 300hp modification, for near vertical angle of attacks and carrier-like takeoffs. Great plane for aerobatics. :)

There's but one real cure for human stupidity. It's called DEATH.

At the moment mourning the assassination of sarcasm and irony for the good of the "higher".
