I am looking for a very agile, and quite fast jet for CFS1.

Believe me, I have downloaded almost ALL of the CFS1 modern aircraft. I have also got most of the FS98 military section.

No wonder it takes so long to load the planes drop-down menu.  ;)

Any suggestions welcome.

Have you tried either of the F-14's on this page, if I remember (I haven't played CFS1 in a long time) they are pretty fast and agile: http://www.simviation.com/cfs1mod2.htm

OK, I shall try them out.

Please let me know of any others.

Thanks, Jonathan

OK - I have had a fly in those two planes.

1) Yes, they are fast

2) They bank quickly

3) But they do not turn quickly.

This is the problem. I need a plane that turns quickly. Because this is how I fight. I use planes that are not necessarily faster, but they can out-turn the opposition. If anyone has CFS1 then I would like a jet that handles like the Sea Fury here:

Thanks again, Jonathan

What I would do is try and modify the .air file yourself-thats the best way to customize handling.  Unfortunately, it is a little complicated and I am by no means an expert so I'd be affraid to give you advice.  So, what I would do is find an aircraft you like-then go to the design forum here and talk to them about changing the handling characteristics.  I'm sure they can walk you through it so you get a plane just how you want it.  It may take a few tries to make it handle just how you want-but it should be nice in the end.  

GeForce,
 Have you tried the Sea Harrier, she's not very fast but quite agile and with 2 30mm cannon well armed.

I am being very picky, but I like my planes perfect. This one is way too twitchy. I am learning how to modify .air files at the moment so I should be alright - I can customise the plane to what I want.

Thanks for all your help  ;D

  44x44,

  have you tried the F-22?  it turns pretty fast.

Yes, I have thanks. I am pretty good at modifying .air files now, and the Raptor is my favourite plane (apart from the Sea Fury obviously ).

  GeForce,

  I noticed that,  have you seen the one's at
  Flightsim? nice polished textures, work in FS2002/
 CFS2. just do a search.

Definitely. I love the Sea Fury and have got all 4 variations of the plane. The one I have in my avatar is actually a photo of the RAN version. I have a fairly good PC so my framerates stil stay around to 10 mark near the ground, up to 15 as I get further away from it. Also I really am looking for a jet, I have the F-16 Viper Chase Plane in FS2004 but I am looking for a CFS1 version, or at least a jet that performs like it.

Thanks anyway,

Jonathan
