Recommended plane

Postby Saitek » Fri Apr 02, 2004 12:39 pm

Hi everyone!
As I have prieviously said I am no good at flying jumbos. Are there any really good aircraft that are bigger and heavier than the Cessnas, but no way near the size of the giants. I thought I would use this as a stepping stone to get to the big ones. I had a look in the downloads, but there are so many there, and I don't know which are suitable.
It must be a significant improvement on the Cessna size.
Thanks.
Regards,
Ben

There are a lot of aicraft out there that fit that description  CRJ'S  (Candaian Regional Jet) which is kind of an oversized lear 45. Than you have the twin engine Baron and King Air and a whole lot of others out there that woulld fall into the medium sized aircraft. I for one like the B737-200 and B727 series and even the B707 or mad dog 88 also known as a MD88, are good medium sized air craft. :o ;D

I have never been interested in the big jets.   I have had a lot of fun with the Aero design AC50 (ac500VC1.)

For a vintage plane it has neat lines and flys like a dream - has all the bits and pieces.    Get it from Simviation.    Failing that get yourself a DC3.
