Best Freeware/Payware Addons at the Moment?

Hi guys,

After a long absence from flight simming I'm dipping my toes back in the water. I've just gotten myself up and running with FSX and I'm just looking for some advice as to what are the best freeware and payware addons right now, and what are the must haves before I get wired in.

I should add that I fly mainly military aircraft but I'm partial to regional style civil airlines.

Cheers,

Richard.

If you can afford it, and have the time to learn it, PMDG 737NGX.  I got it the day it came out, and its been the best.

First and foremost, REX. The single best all around upgrade you can buy! Buy this first!

How is REX in relation to FPS?

Takes a small hit, really, it's unnoticeable

This exact question comes up so often about the best add ons for FSX........I think we need an updated "sticky" here in the FSX sub-forum.
We could post it and let members add their favorite sceneries and aircraft to the list over time.

I'll bring the idea up in the dungeon and see if it floats ;)

Yes -- there are plenty of payware quality freeware and if the payware freaks keep posting payware - this gets move to payware.  :)

This is why we have payware forum as separate ...

For any sticky thread  - we need to have a separate thread in payware for the best of that and here for the best of freeware.
