hello everyone

  I currently have no payware planes in my hangar :(, but i am hoping to start getting some soon. i dont really know which planes to buy, so i was hoping someone could throw a few names and give me a few ideas.money is no issue. i am into passenger planes. so far i am looking at the pmdg 737, captain sim's 707,and 727, and flight 1's atr72, could anyone tell me if these are any good..

all replys are greatly appriciated! ;D
thanks.

Alex.  

*Update*  the poll above contains all of the payware and hardware im currently looking at purchasing, vote on all the ones you think are good, hopefully this will help me decide.

thanks again everyone!

You can't go wrong with the PMDG 737 ...... or the Captain sim 727. As for the others I don't have them ...... ;D

It seems everyone likes the PMDG 737, but Flight1's ATR is very nice.

If you are the least bit interested in GA aircraft, I would recommend the Dreamfleet A36 Bonanza...but that is just my 2 cents worth  8)

When you have a Yoke and Rudder pedals (get both, believe me), it's like a whole new game. Coordinated turns, differential braking, throttle/prop/mix controls. WAY cool. Personally, I'd get that before anymore payware aircraft or scenery.

Im not usually too much of an airliner pilot, except for my VA (Which is in many ways, similar to yours ;)), but in that area I would recommend the PMDG 737.

I don't have any payware aircraft yet. But the yoke and rudder pedals make a BIG difference (as above)
