it comes as a self-installer too
there are many aircraft (Free) that match the quality of this, quality is what keeps me interested a lot of the time...

That is a splendid little aeroplane!
Many thanks Hinch :clap:

I see 4 all by James (Jimmy)... Although they are numbered 1, 2 & 4... are you using bitwise numbering Jimmy? <_<

no idea what happened to number 3... but they are there!

Well I uploaded them in order, yet they have come out backwards, I am unsure how to change the layout of them, rpaobyl somehtign alex will have to do. and number 3 is still on my harddrive, thats actuly the "how to install sounds" one.

I jsut put them up there for a simple guide for begginers to install stuff, I actuyl quite enjoyed wrighting them.. I haven't really done anymore as there hasn't been much interest in the nzfs. Perhaps I will make some time over the next few weeks to put some more up..

Sorry about the numbering

how did you ever get your aviation medical!

mind you, thats like the pot calling the kettle black... I suffer from 'domestic blindness' as my wife puts it... the inability to see what I'm looking for when its right in front of me :blink:

what do you fancy? there's a few aircraft i think are really something.

Rick Piper's new chipmunk is a top pick - the old one was good, but this one has a full 3D VC...

http://www.forum-design.co.uk/air/gallery/GBCPU/

it is availible somewhere i think.

Also agree with the above choices.

But you might also want to consider the following:

Some other nice GA freeware aircraft I would also recommend would be any Milton Shupe aircraft - Aero Commander, Shrike Commander, Beech 18, Howard 500, Spartan Executive (although I haven't tried this). Do a search of his name in Avsim.

Would also highly recommend the Christen Eagle (search Christen in Avsim) by the Long Island Clasics Team and the Maule available at www.fsnordic.net. Do a search for Maule in their libarary.

For something bigger I would download Rick Piper's HS-748 (search Rick Piper in Avsim).

This will keep you busy!

Hinch certainly has a good taste for aircraft models- he was the one know directed me to Milton Shurpe's Spartan, Rick Pipers Chippy, the Christen Eagle II and of course, my favourite Airhead Deke, which I now have painted in the colours of ZK-CIT, A variant that I am learning to fly in real life

by **Naki** » Wed Mar 28, 2007 3:50 pm

One other aircraft that I forgot and definitely worth considering is the veneaviones_rockwell_turbo_commander_690b.zip available at Avsim.

a new one came out this year. it's beta so i can't link - but it is around!

OK top freeware:
http://www.forum-design.co.uk/air/new/

that's just an idea of what my new site will look like, but there's me general aviation top 5 at the moment. military, vintage, airliner and 'other' still to come.

anything from Roland Laborie's Mirage 2000 to Milton Shupe's spartan to the Junkers-52 project. It's all top top payware quality stuff to be on that list.

Great idea, couldn't find the Widgeon.
Widgeon? Is that an aeroplane?

by **hinch** » Fri Mar 30, 2007 11:24 am

a widgeon is a duck...but also a floatplane. It's on avsim somewhere. it's actually not a favourite of mine, but it is good quality:
http://library.avsim.net/search.php?Sea ... &Go=Search

The list on my site is by no means final, just a test at the moment! the site structure is a little difficult also so that's going to change a bit too i imagine.
