I see many models but I have yet to find one with a good looking VC. Anyone know a good one for FSX?
Or any prop that can shuttle a small crowd of business men. The interior must be nice or else they will not get in. Including the captain.

Have you tried the Moths or Rapides we have here? I don't know if Rick Pipers Chippie works in FSX but if it does it is a blinder
There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Milton Shupe's aircraft have great interiors too. Check out his Spartan Executives and Howards 500. An FSX native version is available at

Thank you guys. The only problem I have with most FS2004 models is the propeller behind clouds and autogen issue. I downloaded that Spartan and will give it a try tomorrow. One thing to keep in mind, I'm looking for a mid sized plane that can fit more than 4 passengers but not as big as a 737. I downloaded a DHC8-Q202. Nice plane but have that propeller issue.

De Havilland Rapide for FSX
Thanks Ozzy! Igot into the VC and was very impressed talking to myself and smiling, then I looked back. At first it was an awkward moment as the passengers were not looking amused. I'm now flying them to WA69 for some wine and cheese to lighten them up.
On a serious note, I love the plane. It's beautifully done.
@Frequent Flyer: I didn't try the spartan yet as I grabbed the Stinson instead by mistake. Thanks for that link. Will be trying those out later.

Nay worries, quite a few top flight FS9 ones either work in FSX or have been upgraded for it

If you've got some space on your hard drive and some patience or fast internet, one prop I find nice (although it's not DeHavilland) is the Super King Air 300 (Found Here:
http://www.simviation.com/simviation/index.php?type=item&ID=61&page=40
) Only warning, it's 160 MB zipped and if I recall, between 600-700 MB when unzipped. On the upside, it has a fully modeled interior in the VC.
Now if only I remembered the controls to move around inside the VC...
I'm not the best designer. . . meh I think I'm pretty good for 14 years old. . .

Ozzy you have opened me up to planes I wouldn't normally fly. I'm enjoying the suggestions (that's why it took me so long to post). I really enjoy the comet, it's a lot of fun to fly. The Tiger Moths are fun too. These are some great VFR planes. I just need more practice with some tail draggers when taxiing and takeoff. Can't see where I'm goin on those small strips but I just push the throttle and pray
Thanks again.
@Shadow: I will check it out. Got plenty of space, just reformatted recently and am being very picky about what I put in my hangar this time. At 160mb, it must be something. Is this a texture package for the default plane or is this a newly made model?

Thanks simpilot! I didn't see your post till last night. I downloaded the dhc-5.....cool plane. Think the textures in the VC can be a little better though. But hey, it's free and it's a keeper in my hagar.
