all of em for me, it may just be my skill, as i just started downloading stuff for FS2004, but i always seem to get planes that are messed up in one way or another, like panels that dont work through the whole thing, or stuff, cause i have an airbus 380 model that couldnt turn on the taxi way at all, it went straight whatever i did, i also like that microsoft adds the handbook stuff, and a lot of stuff most planes i get dont seem to have, and they also keep the planes from causing fps to die, so the more the better in my opinion, plus i dont want to go around buying stuff from people, like new planes that are good, cause it gets too confusing

BRING THE BLOODY CONCORDE BACK!!!!


And the 727 and 757, but I am slightly biased in saying that. Also, the Dash 8 would be nice to have flyable as was said. Maybe throw in a few military fighters.

If they could get the panels, sound, and performance right, it would be one amazing sim.

Without boeing I wouldn't have 737 after 737 after 737 coming in over my house..........

Anyhoo - my vote goes to however many small single or small twin GA planes Microsoft can produce of the same quality as the default cessna 182. A fleet of low poly default AI GA planes would be handy too.

A Dehaviland Comet - Some Any British aircraft would be nice too.... We have made a couple.......

Here comes another plane, yep you got it - another easyjet 737!

I have a feeling that Microsoft will be doing more upgrading on current aircraft.  I can't imagine them tacking on anymore aircraft unless they create another Professional and Standard editions.

God how i miss that sight and sound. I thought moving from Bristol would be a good thing. But i have found it almost impossible to live for the first time in my life without the sound of planes or helicoptors flying over. Its even effecting my sleeping. between the army bases around the UK and North america and then living right under the flight path for bristol airport, the silence is driving me crazy.
Sorry for going off topic, but  Birdman lives a couple of miles from my old home so he also deals as he so mentions with those planes:)

Definetly keep the Cub, add a few more Boeings, perhaps get an A-320 in there too. (I hope they don't bring in the A-330 I think it's a horrible plane)

A DC-10/MD-11 or L1011 as stock with full VC and nice realistic panel. Something three-engined! My preference: 727.

I would also love to see them put the Illusyin IL-96 (you know what I mean I misspelled it). It is a beautiful glass-cockpit Russian airliner, comparable to the A-340 though in my opinion, a far better airplane for the money. It is completely self sustaining and in my opinion, is quite impressive. We definetly need a Russian plane though by now.

Another float plane or float heli would be cool. I would like to see a large helicopter of some sort, perhaps a few military types.

On another note, AI helicopters and float planes would be cool. It would be cool if they could get some AI military jets to fly in formation too. AI towplanes and gliders?

Sounds like I had better start on Bristol V4 then if you're getting withdrawal symptoms ::) I'm using the new techniques now so it will be an AFCAD2/GMAX/Ground2K4 design, which should be much better.

Any suggestions or recommendations on what needs to be improved or what should be included I

I think it would be very difficult to have all the airplanes in fs2006 it would be a lot of data, but i would rather like the a380

The Airbus A380 is very very cool but not as good for me as the 747 that is really a very goog plane, boeing has like all the quality and all the creativity to do a plane that cool, it was the first one to create a plane of two floors.

I can't imagine them putting more than 2 new planes on. I think they only make the sim aircraft simple to pave the way for payware developers to make a bit of business.  An airbus A330 would be nice since there aren't really any medium-long haul planes on the sim.  From the larger side of the aircraft(B777, B747) it would be nice for a fully functional FMC to be on board, and from the smaller side(Cessna's, Mooney's) they really need to concentrate on the VFR side, but as I said this would put quite alot of  company's out of business on the payware side of FS.  I really do hope that they actually listen to what us simmers say since we're the people who buy and invest in FS to make it better for the next version.
