I have a heap of GA aircraft. My favourites are the Baytower RV7 and the Flight 1 Islander. Both STOL and the RV 7 Is aerobatic. Heaps of kiwi repaints for both.

The sounds are great. As are the vibrations and the immersion of the whole model

Hey Todd. Lots of great suggestions so far, for GA stuff I can also recommend the following (NZ repaints available) which I use for getting into those smaller NZ nooks-n-crannies smile.gif

* Cessna 185 from Carenado
* Ant's Tecnam Sierra
* Diamond Katana DA20 from Aerosoft
* Piper Navajo from FSD
* Alabeo C188 AgTruk

Another kiwi connection I'm holding a few xmas pennies for is the Razbam Metroliner too which is a work in progress but looking great from recent pics (some new ones on FB today)
