Aircraft the make you feel "there"

**roger-wilco-66** · January 4th, 2011, 11:22

I'd opt for the A2A P-47. It has almost nothing to do with the visuals, just the realistic way the aircraft has to be operated. I'm spring-loaded, cautious and almost a little afraid when I fly that thing - what more can make you "feel there".

Cheers,
Mark

I agree, other aircraft give you almost nothing to do, others too much ( I still can't fly that bl***y Vulcan), the P-47 is just perfect, treat it right, and everything is fine, make a mistake, and you'll pay.
It actually reminds me a lot of some of my old motorcycles I used to drive. Usually things were fine, but there was always this nagging feeling in the back of your head...
The B-17 is great too, but easier, since you can let the co-pilot do a lot.

For me, the Duke and l39 provide perfect level of complexity. You have to manage the engines, presurization, ice as well as point it where you want to go. With duke, the xp 530 gps adds just that much more.

Anything that falls in the lines of fine quality modeling from the below developers are my carrot

Stuart Greens work - Truly missed
Robert Bruce(s) work - Truly missed
Ted Cooks work (like a fine wine getting better with time)
Bill Lyons work - Truly missed
Steven D. Meyers work - Truly missed
Milan Lisner
Manuele Villa
Oliver Fischer
Dave Garwood
Victor Astiz
Bill Ortis
Michael Puto
Guy Hulin
The modeler of the Air Atlantique Percival Prentice
Luka Midic
Simon Smeiman
Jozef Vrabec

Thanks to you all for my (and your) flight simulator enjoyment! :salute:

I know there are more modelers of this quality I'm forgetting. I have so many models I enjoy flying that I can't remember them all.

I guess it shows that I like bush flying

I think i should add the A2A Wings Of Power 3 Spitfire with Accusim. Almost anybody on SOH can attest to the realistic feeling it gives. Heck even Dudley Henriques said that you could theoretically use it to check out on a real Mark.1! :salute:
