Hey folks!

Im finishing my dissertation on monday, and as a result getting a well done sum of cash from the 'rents! (yipee).
So where else better to spend it than on a new payware acft!

So to that end, id appreciate your advice on what new aircraft to get???
Im planning to get Track IR4 soon, so one with a good VC would be great.

I currently have a mix of military/props/civil etc, but would love to hear which is your fave aircraft to fly??
I have:
carenado cessna+piper
iris harrier,tomcat, migs
aerosoft a10 i seahawk
sf.260
cloud 9 phantom
loads of alpha military

Thanks,

Bob.

The IRIS planes are good, However I prefer Alphasim. The Aerosoft A-10 is EXCELLENT. Great VC, handles well, look very nice  Grin.

I'd definitely go for some Alphasim planes if I were you though. Especially that new SR-71 that I've been wanting to pick up  Wink The Su-33 is fun, although a bit twitchy to me. The Tu-160 is downright amazing. The F-104 they're coming come out with looks very nice, and a C-17 will apparently be released in a few weeks. The AH-64 also looks amazing, as does the AH-1W Super Cobra they released today.

Anything by PMDG is really good. The Captain Sim C-130 is very good also.

I recently got the freeware Aero Commander 500 for FS2004.  Model designed and animated in GMAX by Milton Shupe - .  It is simply lovely in my opinion.  It comes in both 2D and VC cockpit versions, and many people have posted nice repaints.

Have fun -

Mike
