Posky make the BEST 767-300er IMO :P :P :P

IFDG is my second choice as the 320 is just such a great aircraft (I like its paintkit too) but posky just is so high qulity, althoug their A330 hasn't impressed me as the panel is a total mess and I can't get it to work and when flying it its more like a slide show <_<

Thats my 2cents worth B)

You have posted a very limited range of addons, but out of the companys you have posted I would choose POSKY for thier 737-800 series.

iFDG are also good, but their a320 models arn't framerate friendly.

Other great freeware addons = BMSP Saab 2000, FSNordic Maule, Airhead Deke, All the Long Island Classic aircraft etc...

I voted Ifdg, however BSMP also created a great Saab 2000 as someone said above.

Thanks for mentioning us "minor design" outfits guys, I cant tell you how normally a thread like this disheartens us who are trying to get started in the FS community >nzflag< and for my 2 cents worth Dreamwings and project fokker are really good for regional AC :thumbup:

My ultra Favourite tho was always the ARNZ 737 200 just loved that one.

Other: Kittyhawk, Eric's 737NG's are still the best shape out there and the most framerate friendly.

What about the Tinmouse 737-200 and the RFP 747-200? Fantastic aircraft with realistic panels and great systems reproduction. Most freeware aircraft either have a great exterior model but a poor panel or the other way around. IMHO these 2 nailed both although to be fair the RFP 747-200 did start out as payware..
Would love to see a nice panel for that SAAB2000 Dan. That is one great machine. The Fletcher is great too.
