What aircraft would we like to see in FSX?

[ozzy72]

Well for me it has to be a Spit naturally, but I'd also like to see the Tiger Moth, Piper Cub, Stearman and DC-3.
Frankly anything with Cameron Diaz in her birthday suit painted on the nose will be good for me

Excluding your own back yard?  

Never fear...
I always carry a ball of wool with me...
...and I have painted arrows on the trees, pointing the way back to my kitchen... ...!

A pocket sized GPS system is next on the list....with audio instructions...and a little winch for re-winding the wool......!

LOL...!

I'm at the disadvantage of having no knowledge of Multiplayer so depend on reliable feedback. I've seen a lot of these things mentioned over the years but people never seem to try my suggestions or if they do they never give me any feedback.

The world is full of naughty people, Doug......!

Never mind, the kettle is on for a nice cup of tea, and a slice of Wensleydale on a cream cracker....
...and if I can contact someone on Multiplayer we will try out your FS9.cfg modification, and see if it works...
...then report back, forthwith... ...!
...trust me... ...!
LOL... ...!

Paul... ...!

...can't figure? configure!
LOL...!

182RG... ...!

Paul with retractable gear... ...!

The Cessna 182RG is a very attractive, fast, (tho' expensive), tourer... ...!
...just remember to drop the wheels before landing...LOL... ...!

[Moach]

Tee-Hee... ...!

The Cessna 182RG is an excellent step up from the 152/172 trainers to more complex aircraft requiring extra training: Constant speed or variable pitch propellor, and retractable gear.
We had it in FS 2002, and I missed it in FS 2004... ...!
(There are some excellent 3rd. party 182RG's out there, but we really do need a default version included in FSX)... ...!

Have you tried the FS2002 default 182RG in FS9?

PS. Just tried it. Flies OK but it won't take off. The flight dynamics need tweaking.

Hi Doug...!

Now there's a thought...
I wonder if the complete FS 2002 '182RG Folder was dropped into FS 2004, would it act as an AI aircraft in the sim, in the same way that the default FS 2004 '182S does...?
...or is there more to it than that...?

Worth a try......!

Paul... ...!

I think the default aircraft as well as being "flyable" are also programmed to be used as AI aircraft...?
Which is why Bill would prefer us to use his default aircraft...at all times... ... ...!
LOL...!

You can add any installed aircraft to the AI database with TTools so that wouldn't be a problem. I doubt the FS2002 default 182RG would be any use for AI Traffic as it won't take off. The flight dynamics would need tweaking even to use it as an unflyable AI drone like the default PA-28 Cherokee. RollerBall would be the best person to ask about that.

This is the problem when people expect all sorts of improvements in a new version of FS while retaining compatibility with addons from earlier versions. You can't have it both ways & for any vast improvements the whole engine would need changing as with CFS3. IMHO

Well, I'm not in a position to get payware, and its rare that a really good freeware package comes along (iFly 747 for example). There for sometimes I enjoy flying MS default planes, as I know they will work and look good.

So I'd like to see -
                             C-130
                             F-18
                             A340
                             VC-10 (military and civil)
                             B707
                             B747 (cargo versions as well)
                             Spitfire

Well, I'm not in a position to get payware...

...VC-10 (military and civil)

Surely Dave Maltby has that base covered, and hopefully he'll follow his Trident and BAC 1-11 VCs with one for the VC-10...

Which ever aircraft are choosen, Please Oh Please use real airline call signs and liveries.

Better if they don't do that or it could give the airlines ideas. There will be plenty of repaints available for the default aircraft soon after it's released. That's what this site is all about.
