What aircraft would we like to see in FSX? (Read 11160 times)

I would like to see the 182RG come back. Also, some 50s, 60s, and 70s air liners would be great. 707 maybe? Definately a A320 - too many Boeings! De Havilland Comet would be nice to. The Century of Flight wasn't really a Century of flight. There was a big gap around 1950 - 1970. I would also like to see the Concorde return. DHC-2 would be nice too.

Why? They don't fly it anymore.

I think Boeing endorses MS. That's why all the 73X's

Is that really a factor?  ???

FS Insider always features Boeing news, so they must work well together. As for the 787, I think that it would be the new addition to Boeing aircraft in FSX, maybe the 747-8 as well! Wink

A Piper Warrior would be nice for the people who don't like Cessnas but I think that might be asking for too much.

Since M$ will be focused on backwards compatibility, you have a good chance of using any of the default FS9 aircraft [the ones that you like] in FSX since M$ made those default planes. And if you don't have FS9 when FSX comes out, then there will be those who will post the defaults on SimV. Grin

That way, you can all still enjoy your favorite default plane until the addon developers start rolling in the new FSX addons. Wink

does that mean 2002 a/c also? y'think, or just the latter models for FS9?
you know what would be nuts, and save space ont he DVD, is have no default aircraft Wink. not a bad idea, except for the people who aren't really into the flight sim community, which is rare considering most people crack after the first 2-5 weeks of fly the same a/c over and over.

People would be super pissed off - "I bought FSX and I can't even fly a plane!"

Including some defualt planes is a must because not everyone who flies FS downloads planes. Also software should work right out of the box.

Quite, as I said, there should be at least one of each type for default, any more specific medels required can be downloaded at a future date.

Eh? Vickers Vimy, Wright Flyer, Curtis Jenny, etc, etc.

There is still an airworthy Vimy (replica) which flew the Atlantic last year, and there are several airworthy Curtiss Jennys

Alright, split hairs if you want.  Roll Eyes The point is that it's pretty irelavent as to whether a simulated AC does fly in real life. MSFS is to help us replicate things that we can't genuinely do in real life anyway. Lets be honest, if I was lucky enough to live in an area where I was able to jump in my own Cessna and do some leasure flying just for the hell of it, I wouldn't be typing this now!

So, flying a Cessna 172 or a Concorde. Both are impossible for me in real life and that's what MSFS is for!

Indeed, I was just straightening a few facts, and I quite agree with what you are saying... Wink Smiley

Maybe it will include planes that never flew in the first place then? Cheesy Like the attempts at powered flight before the Wrights? That would be a surprising change from the normal, and rather unexpected as well. Cheesy
