I don't have a whole lot, but I have a few really nice ones. I think I have like 10 add-on planes right now (but I delete planes if I don't LOVE them-I'm pretty picky). My favorites include:

Milton Shupe, Scott Thomas, & Joáo Paz's Howard 500: http://www.simviation.com/fs2004props25.htm

Saverio Maurri's Gloster Meteor: http://www.simviation.com/fs2004military20.htm

If you want to know more about those two, I have written reviews for both of them. They can be found here: http://www.simviation.com/fsreviews_meteor0604.htm and here: http://www.simviation.com/fsreviews_fs9howard.htm respectively.

A couple other planes that I love are...

FSD's T-38: http://www.simviation.com/fs2004military17.htm

Daisuke Yamamoto's F/A-18E Super Hornet collection: http://www.simviation.com/fs2004military19.htm

Kirk Olsson's F-16 Viper: http://www.simviation.com/fs2004military2.htm

Those are a handful of the planes I currently have in my hanger. These are also some of the nicest planes avilable right now and I fly all of them quite regularily. Grin

This reminds that I need to have a clearout. I check out a lot of aircraft in all my M$ sims to troubleshoot them for other people. Once I confirm that they work I rarely have any further use for them. I don't see much point in having a lot of aircraft installed that you're never likely to use.

My own preference is for vintage light aircraft. I've been hunting round for suitable types to fly & add to my AI traffic as I did in FS2002. Unfortunately I lost many months of hard work when my HD crashed (ignored my own advice to back up regularly) so this means starting again from scratch. Roll Eyes

I am in the same boat... I have all my payware, plus a few selected freewares that are too cool to remove. I used to have gigs upon gigs, but found it better to have fewer planes in the hanger. Performance picked up a bit. I did not delete them from the hard drive, I just placed them on my secondary drive so that if I want to I can just move them back. Grin
