Hey guys,

I have had some computer trouble with my gaming PC lately. The hard drive croaked on me about three days ago. I got it working again yesterday, and I now have to rebuild my downloaded FS aircraft. I just wanted to see what you guys consider an 'essential' when it comes to FS add-ons, and what you think I should go download.

Thanks for any help in advance!

PS- I'm definitely buying a 320GB Seagate external to back stuff up this time...

Well, these are not all aircraft, but are indeed scenery too.

Just a few, I know you're not a complete no brainer regarding FS! xD

You gotta have the 727!!

I got loads:

Abacus A380
Fly the 787 dreamliner
727 professional
777 professional
747 - 200 Ready for pushback
737 pilot in command
BAC 111

You really gotta get 777 professional, 737 pilot in command,BAC 111 or 747-200 RFP. Here's some websites
www.dmflightsim.co.uk - for the BAC 111 (ITS FREE!!!) You can also get trident (- which messes ATC chatter so dont bother un less you got more than 2GB ram and a fast processor) and more
www.pheonix-simulation - for 777 professional
www.wilcopub.com - for 737 pic
www.simpilot.com - 742 rfp

they may also be on justflight.com!

have fun flight simmers!

Note that all of Klm's links are freeware whilst Aspiring's are payware.

I recently bought Wilco's Airbus series.
There is a looot to learn which takes its time (and can get frustrating) but once you do, you will be flying with a whole lot of realism

Actually the dmflightsim is freeware.

The FRP 747 - 200 has a lot to learn, i've had it 6 months and im gettin there. ive learned a lot from the manual. The 737 one is fairly easy to do once you know how to programme the CDU (control display unit) and as for the 777 well thats also a piece of cake once you know how to fly it on the CDU/FMC.

Regards simmers,

Thanks for all the suggestions! I appreciate it :D

Im also going to go and get the Project Fokker F-28/70/100.

Thanks again, you've been a great help.

You could also go for some of the PMDG aircraft if you want high levels of reality.
I've got the 747 and the 737 800/900 by PMDG and love them! I've also got the 777 from PSS which is good too. Although they are all payware they are ALL worth the money.

I've just recently downloaded some simviation stuff. The 737- 800 (posky) is AMAZING and the 767 airlines package is just so cool! The wing views all work perfectly and i LOVE!

Have fun simmers,
Chris

I hope those with dozens of add-ons are acquiring them in legal ways
You just have to support the people putting time into developing aircraft you love to fly.
