Can anyone suggest a good bird to add to my hanger for an GA fanatic like me?

So far ive only got the DA-20 Katana, the DHC-2 Beaver, The Beechcraft King Air B200.

Ive been looking at eaglesoft's SR-20 and some of Carenado's work (particularly the Cessna 182RG or the Pipers). Anyone have anymore suggestions or what they think of the above products? Thanks

Cheers,
RB

Just an idea here, but definately give the Baron 58, and/or the Bonanza A36 by Dreamfleet a look 8)

P.S. The Carenado aircraft are great too. I have them all with the exception of the Mentor... Grin

The Dream Fleet Baron and RealAir SF.260 are MUST HAVES!

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Like Mark said, any of the Baron & RealAir SF.260 are what you are looking for!

You get allot for your money!

From what you have already, you look like you need some horsepower! Grin

I recommend the Dreamfleet 2000 A36. You won't find more bang for your buck. Those realityXP gauges are outstanding. It's pretty much the only GA plane I fly now. Until I get their B58.

Consider definately:
--> The Realair SF.260
--> The new Carenado Cessna 182RG II (amazing, this one)

And I dont have this one but from what I've seen its amazing!
--> The Dreamfleet Baron 58

I'm a Piper guy, so I would say FSD's Piper Navajo Panther. My all time favorite add-on. I would buy the game if that was all it came with.
