This question is directed at all of you, and any suggestions are welcomed.

I basically want to find out what you want from a freeware aircraft. What features do you consider "must have's"? What features do you consider not to be important?

If you had to pick from this list, what would you most like to have?

F-15
F-16
F-117
A-10
EF-2000
SR-71
Cessna 185
DC-10
MD-11
B767

These are all the aircraft I have planned, and after a break (the 757 has really burnt me out), I plan to model again.

If the aircraft you want isn't in the list, suggest it.

Any ideas?

With the addition of FSDSv2 and Gmax, it would now be possible to make a really good SR-71.
BTW, I know what you mean about getting burned out. I stopped working on the YB-60 for a while cuz I was stuck on one part of it. I will get it going again soon and with any luck it will(might Cheesy) be out before...say 2005 Grin

I'd love to do an Antonov 225, they don't come any bigger/badder than that! I've had trouble finding info and good 3-view on that though.

John, would you be interested in doing a panel for my project?

Keep the ideas coming. The AN-225 is just one of a few choices.

I am active duty military, and a flight engineer on       CH-47D Chinook, and although I have downloaded the Royal AF chinook, I don't have the control on the nav, and radio equipment I would like. I want to be able to tune in freqs for ILS and VOR at the airport of my choice, maybe I dont know how to install the gauges properly on the model I have, but I sure would like some help. Thanks!!!!!

Foo - civilian - military - no matter - I would just like one. I intend to learn how to make aircraft myself. But it will take time as I am not all that computer savvy.  Grin

Hmm, now that is an interesting idea - a classic jetliner.

What do you think to a DC-8, or something of that vintage?

I'm trying to limit my options to aircraft I have good info on. I have a set of original blues for the DC-8 and DC-10.
