The Just Flight Spitfire package is nice (should have the wee issues sorted with the patch v.shortly).
Otherwise I'd go freeware ;)

The Aeroworx Harvard/Texan look very promising too, and the Captain Sim Yak-3 is on offer at the moment and is great fun to fly (small aeroplane+big engine= ;D )

The Icarus Golden Wings collection has quite a few WWII planes, but I found the Mustang to be a bit lacking.  The above mentioned planes are all awesome, and Aeroplane Heaven keeps threatening to release their Corsair package soon.  Who knows when they will, but it looks awesome...

I forgot the MAAM DC-3, a classic bird and there is a nice D-Day scheme out for her ;)

Not a big fan of Icarus - I found the Lysander very disappointing...

thanks again :-)

my collection is allready growing.....

got me the captain sim yak 3 now...and i still want more....lol

with the just flight spitt i will wait till the patch is out..and check what anybody says then.

the maam dc3 is really sweet but im lookin more for armed planes...but i know that maam is allready working on a turkey...Grumman tbm-3 . i taked a look at the aeroplane heaven corsair and this bird is really lookin good... lets see when it will be finished.

charlie i checked the icarus ones to, and youre right..they looking a bit hm... not really good....but if the aeroworx texan flyes as good as she looks then this could be a candidate for my next buy :-)

again thank you all for your help, if anyone still have ideas let me know :-)

peace

chris

The same reason you need any payware version of a plane.  As good as the freeware versions are (and they are excellent), the payware versions will usually knowck your socks off.  :)
