I'm with EMatheson - anything by Bill Lyons, with the addition of any scenery by Leon Louis to fly it. Golden Hawaii is well worth having, too.

[guzzi]

I like the lighter stuff , so:-

Anything by David Rowberry (flying wing hangliders and gliders), Mitsuya Hamaguchi (not aircraft!), Dirk Stuck (not aircraft!) Messerschmitt KR-200 by Rainer Girbig search at Avsim/flightsim

Let's not forget Dave Copley's excellent line of P-38 Lightnings for FS. His latest Glacier Girl P-38F, the P-38L, N and J models, as well as the ultimate Lightning... the XP-38N, the best freeware P-38's available.

Got another 'oldie but goodie', a scenery file this time,
freeware from Richard 'Georender' Goldstein,an fs2002 scenery that nonetheless works in fs2004,
at Avsim (and maybe a few other places)

Spotted Bear USFS (8U4)

File Description:
Phototextured rendering of a US Forestry Service airstrip deep in the mountains of Western Montana. Includes ground detail and shadow effects, as well as detail and reflection on the water. Water landing possible. Plenty of choices for flying fun with a curved grass strip surrounded by tall trees and a meandering river. Beware of puddles on the runway!

(Dave Eckerts' Stearman Kaydet is a good match)

Where can I get that Twin Bonanza?!

[Motormouse]

Where can I get that Twin Bonanza?!

either Avsim or Flightsim.com, search for Eric Dantes
(which will also net you his freeware Twin Otter,Stampe SV4, and Socata Rallye)

Some Soviet/Russian heavies! In my opinion, some of the most intensive freeware tubeliners available. Equivalent or better than payware.

Ok, here's another that don't get a lot of 'air' time (does in my hangar)
fly it from the VC,and watch those control runs, from here at Outhouse
Steven D Myers Porterfield-Turner Collegiate

---> http://www.sim-outhouse.com/index.ph...ews&newsid=463

and who can forget Jed Marsh's planes either

http://www.pavaservices.com/cfs/

and although its an unfinished 'Beta' (but much more finished than a lot of completed projects from other sites) the Percival Prentice can be found here

Here's another FS2002 beauty who's survived the test of time. The Robin 400 by (once again) Yannick Lavigne, Fred Banting, Rob Young...and converted for use in FS2004 by Eric Dantes. Wonderfully modelled, textured, and flys great. Check out the texturing on the pilot. Amazing! Can be downloaded from Flightsim.com. Files needed are dr400v1.zip and dr400_04.zip.

The best freeware FS9 airfield out there is indeed Pattonville ...

http://www.climbspeed.de/index.htm

Thanks again for Bill aka "Lionheart" for pointing me in the right direction for this stellar scenery many months ago ...

Mike

Never heard of it until now. Thanks!!!

Sorry if these are too obvious, a sample from my overstuffed hard drive - but then they're all too good to push into the hangar, amongst the light stuff how about the Golden Age Taylor Cub at

http://www.flightsim.com/kdl.php?fid=128605

their New Standard D25A at http://www.flightsim.com/kdl.php?fid=118971

not to mention the earlier Waco ATO/CTO package at

http://www.flightsim.com/kdl.php?fid=98532

coming across the pond Oliver Fischer's Bucker Jungmann at avsim -check out his Junkers JU52 while you're there:

http://library.avsim.net/download.php?DLID=117785

Gunter Graemer's Me108 and his Cirrus SR20 shouldn't be missed....if you can find a download site with them - sorry I got them from his site but I think he closed it down, but of course I could be wrong!

The new Auster Aiglet at

http://www.classicbritishfiles.com/

and nosey around for anything Auster or Miles for starters at that site

The Piel Emeraude at http://www.flightsim.com/kdl.php?fid=94795

The Aero Heaven Hurricane is vastly better than a payware version out there, but then so is Robert Sanderson's - both can be found at flightsim.

then up the pace with the Saab Draken which I thought was something like ....bookmark.se - but I can't find it at present

or for airliners naturally the FSDZ Constellation at

http://www.flightsim.com/kdl.php?fid=80675

and of course the C-46 at

http://www.flightsim.com/file.php?cm...name=C46GA.ZIP

for more scarcity value Peter Larkham's lovely Cunliffe-Owen Concordia at

http://www.flightsim.com/kdl.php?fid=117701

The Derek Palmer DH-104 dove has been mentioned recently in the forum:

http://www.flightsim.com/kdl.php?fid=100500

and any airliner by Manfred Jahn and also Jens Kristensen who has covered everything from early Vickers Vimy biplanes through to the Comet 1, and they all fly well.

Kirk Olsson did a lovely F-16 family, and Mirages and the F-86 for whistling round the valleys in.

Milton's Spartan is brilliant but that is covered above and so is Dave Eckert's Stearman.

Never heard of it until now. Thanks!!!

You are gonna love it Chief - Happy to help a shipmate out! Mike
