Has anyone seen a Curtiss Model D flyer for FS9? Also on a related note, does anyone know of a website that has FS9 aircraft from the period of around 1900-1920?

Thanks,

Not sure about the Curtiss Model D, but there are some very nice FS9 aircraft from that period scattered around. I am sure more knowleable members will point you in the right direction.

In the meantime, just from my memory, here are some of those:

Hubert Latham Antoinette by Joe Binka at flightsim
1910 Kruse-Curtiss by Tom Eads at flightsim (for FS2002), but usable
1909 Curtiss Reims racer by Denis Simanaitis (for FS2002, usable too, but get the GMAX version) at Flightsim.

The FS2002 planes need some tweaking, but they are definitely worth the work.

Probably the best place to look after such stuff are The Old hangar forums

Thanks for the help! I think I already have the Anoinette. I also have a Bleriot XI. Any reason why you recommend the GMAX Curtiss Reims racer over the other version? I saw on flightsim.com that the GMAX version is the older of the two (11-25-2002 vs. 8-11-2003). Is the new one not as detailed as the older version?

I found a few good ones while searching through the The Old Hangar and on their related links page:ernae:
