You can't land a jet on a lake in Northern Ontario . "Nuff said . "

[zcottovision]

You can't get from A to Z via all the other letters half as quickly as in a jet.

In the sim jets rule.in the real world props is tops.i guess thats cause i only get to fly jets in the sim.but in the real world its only props for me.

[Hagar]

Give me a vintage light aircraft with a prop & I'm happy as a sandboy. Preferably a taildragger - a proper aeroplane. I never fly jets - except in CFS2.

[BFMF]

I prefer props

[Cvrt7.62Ghst]

Prop's are used to build experience to get to jets.

Jets for me, by far!  Jets are soo cool to watch in real life  and fly in the sim!  

[Woodlouse2002]

At least with a prop you are reassured by seeing whats making the plane go forwards. It's also very easy to see if the engines not working properly...

So props. The Spitfire had a propeller. And thats enough for me.

jets----bah

props YAY!

I will probably never own a jet because they're so expensive, specially the fun ones, and of course P51D>all jets

Not at all...






But I prefer a Bf 109 to a Me 262.

From the looks of things at this point we jet fans have been beat buy the prop fans.but its a good thing this poll wasnt who has the most downloads.cause we jet fans would win that one hands down.

[HawkerTempest5]

There is just something about a prop driven aircraft. Somehow they seems alive and the sound of a big piston engine and the prop blades cutting up the air is just pure magic.

I think this poll was originally posted in the FS2004 forum. I assumed it was about the aircraft in the sim & answered accordingly.

If we're talking about real life I do like some jets & would still rush outside if I heard a jet fighter or vintage type like the Hawker Hunter. I wouldn't bother to look up if I heard a modern jet airliner. They don't interest me at all & they all look the same to me. This might have something to do with my age. I fondly remember the days of the classic prop airliners. These were slow & noisy inside but had something called character.* I prefer a jet airliner for travelling in as a passenger but a prop for fun.

*PS. There's no way you could mistake this beauty for anything else.
