Hi everyone,
What is your favourite aircraft to fly on your flight simulator?

My favourites would be: Boeing 737-800, Boeing 747, Airbus A320, Airbus A321, Airbus A380, Bombadier CRJ700 & the Concord (which I am hoping to get soon).

I really enjoyed the default 737-800 for a long time but since Alrot has vastly improved the vc for the default 747( Smiley

) I find it is my aircraft of choice (when using Air Hauler). On the rare occasion I'm not flying cargo I like 'em slow and low, as my outdated graphics card and computer can keep up with the eye-candy better.

The Beech V35 Bonanza... I hope to get one in real life some day... Roll Eyes

This... Is Rio.

Loud and talkative Bengal cat. He's not ours; his owner lives two houses down, but he wanders around the neighborhood getting food and talking to his human friends. He'll sometimes get into a fight if he meets another cat though... But it's rare because he's kicked out all other cats in the neighborhood. He thinks all the houses are his too...
I came up with the name "ilikerio" way back in 4th grade, and I've used it with most user accounts ever since.
My group of close friends and I have named ourselves The Rio Group. ilikerio Productions is the media branch, located here: http://www.youtube.com/user/ilikerio

Amen to that!

If God wanted aircraft engines to be straight Pratt & Whitney would have made them that way! Grin

I like anything vintage and/or out of the ordinary and of course GA aircraft. So no modern airliners what-so-ever.

Messrs Rolls-Royce obviously disagreed with that. Wink
