I just got back my tax refund check and I'm looking t upgrade a little.  I currently have the PMDG 737 (both), PMDG 1900D, CaptainSim 707, Wilco CRJ's, Eaglesoft Citation X.  I mainly fly airliners, but I also fly lighter stuff.  I'm not talking about just aircraft, scenery and other utilities are up for consideration too.  Thanks

Oh, I'm looking at spending about $100 or so

Well, enhancements that I can use with all planes are on my list.  I am talking rxp avionics and registering fsuipc.  Flight1 and FSD nake the best light aircraft in FS.  I would like to have the Meridian, Baron, and 310.  If you consider going light mite as well go light that can get you there fast.

Airliners:

Level D 767 (based on reviews and users as I dont have it)

GA: Flight 1 Beech A36 (impeccable)

utilities:

FSUIPC registered version
Active Sky 5 (when its released) (based on reviews and users from previous versions as I dont have it)

Active Camera

scenery: Georenders, Orcas Island

Or the new Rhode island (forgot who made it - based on reviews and users as I dont have it)


If you bush fly, Misty Fjords

Ultimate Scenery at Flight1

Those are my suggestions

Bonanza A36 would definately be Numero Uno   8)
After that would come anything else by Dreamfleet or Carenado...... Grin

A good garmin 430 would be nice as that's what I use in real life.  I looked at Yurei's recommendation but is that the best one out there?

There is also the Reality XP Garmin which is really good, their GNS 430 comes with the Dreamfleet Bonanza A36, but I believe you can purchase if for use with any of your aircraft, as the one for the A36 can only be used it that particular plane their website can be found at:

No one has mentioned the Real Air spit yet and along with that I would also get the Marchetti SF.260.

I spend most of my GA time with the SF.260
