Favourite Commercial Airliner

Discuss aircraft addons and repaints for Flight Simulator here

As the title said I thaught I would ask what is your Favourite Commercial Airliner

Mine would either be the 737 or 777


(P.S. I might do a few more of these i.e. favourite GA, Military)

737-800 is way up there, but 777 just tops it I think :plane:

All time would have to be Embraer Banderantie and second the 737-300 that's the plane that I'm aiming to fly as a pilot if I do fly for an airline (as well as any of the other 737's)

Isn't it evident?? Boeing are my favourite aircraft.

P.S. that's is my real birthday but I wish to keep my real age secret to keep you all pondering.

Dam!!!!!! this ain't easy........to be honest it depends on where the moon is positioned in the sky!!!!!!

At this minute I'd have to go with Dash 8 Q300. But that will have changed by tea time. HAHAHA

(I'm always on the look out for a good Dash 8 Q300 addon for FSX with a good Air New Zealand paint)

The 10 was said to be the best pilots choice for an airliner , for Visibility, ease, layout , and especialy for the flying , reason for the MD11 . I did read an article that the 767 , a ex 10 pilot consider'd them equal . Since i use LD767 and PMDG 747 ..Boeing :thumbup: ,

Look at all the Boeing fans!! :D
My favourite... hmmm... (10 minutes saying "hmmm")

B767-300ER only JUST over all the other lovely Boeings.

Airbus A345 and 319 only just ranking outside the Boeings :lol:

just off the top of my head I would have to go three ways

1st from a pilots perspective - DC10
2nd from a pax perspective - B744
3rd from a controllers perspective - SF340

DC10 - nice to fly, B744 plenty of room, SF340 gets around the airport quickly goes up fast comes down quick and just generally bloody good to deal with ( kudos to all those Saab pilots out there ).
