Thread: Freeware Gems

    a freeware gem i keep coming back too

    Piglets T33 will always be in my hanger, after reinstalling FS9, she's the first add-on plane installed, easy to fly but challanging enough to be fun,
    i esp like the larg amount of paints you can download, there dos'nt seem to be an airforce that did'nt fly the T33. here's some of my fav's

    Yep, this T-Bird is still amazing!
    One (of the several) things I love on Piglet's planes is the varying appearance of the bare metal panels: Each of those tin plates looks different!
    Great!

    A very nice plane indeed. Funny thing is: it landed in my FSX hangar just two weeks ago

    Another one from http://restauravia.com/

    I love French fighters as they are really diffenrent. And Restauravia's model of the MB.152 is very nice and should definitely be mentioned here in my opinion.

    This is reallly a good thread !!! How about the DSB F-5s, F-20s, and the UH-1 Hueys. And don't forget all the freeware that Alphasim has.

    Well if you're going DSB/Iris, don't forget about the updated Tornados and the Mig-27 available here.

    One more gem to be added (strange that it hasn't been mentioned before...):




    It's the AFG Beechcraft Kingair 300.
    I know - it smells like a boyscout camp full of coleman lanterns, but it's terrifying well modeled and textured and flies like a dream.

    Get it here:

    Btw: This is a little sneak preview for my next repaint...
    Please keep the secret!

    Cheers,
    Markus.

    It looks like this has finally run its course. I'm going to leave it stuck here for another week, and in the meantime I'll start compiling all of the links in a single file. Once that's done, I'll have to figure out a good way to find a permanent spot for everything...

    Some planes quickly, before it's too late...
    Too lazy to go through everything (Thanks in advance, Tom) so maybe some have been mentioned.
    Google is your friend here: the information will probably take you to your favourite download site anyway.

    Wozzastang in photoreal liveries (here by Javis) remains a firm favourite gem:



    Absolutely not my kind of aircraft, but lovely model:



    Nemeth original, get the "customised" version upgraded by the folks at Hovercontrol. Just brilliant.



    Low 'n slow, and highly aerobatic?
    Makes a Moth look silly. Gorgeous model.



    A stalwart, some outside-the-square thinking too.
    Possibly the best original sound in Flight Simulator:



    Stunning 65th anniversary model, can't think what you do with it, other than fly over the Channel:
