Hi there guys,
I'm looking to gather a list of add-on aircraft that people can't buy or download at the moment. What sort of planes are you after?

I'm a freelance 3D Artist and have worked on 2 airport expansions for Aerosoft. I would like to work on more including detailed aircraft models but there needs to be a demand for something to be made and published.
Or if someone would like model made for them then please PM me. I can model and texture and set the 3Ds Max file up, the exporting and installing into FSX i have not done myself.

Thanks,

Alex.

A BAC1-11 for FSX to the standard of Carenado's recent models... Dave Maltby's version is supurb - I think though with the resources that Carenado have they could make a killer 'oldies' or Vintage collection for FSX , P3D and XP10.

[Snozzeltoff]

Hi, do you have a link to Dave Maltby's work?
I can also get in touch with Carenado's.

Thanks for the info, keep it coming.

One aircraft that comes to mind is the Fokker F100-650. I know Flight 1 has one that is the old Digital Aviation model, but there is no 3D cockpit in it, which is a must for most pilots now a days.

Would love to see this modeled.

I am looking for the Maule M-7 as in FSX but in tricycle configuration rather than the annoying tail wheel. I have seen it in real life as well as in the Maule website. The default Maule looks and flies superbly and the VC is fantastic but has a tailwheel (major downer for me). I no longer fly 2D panels and have grown used to high quality VCs.

I'd still like a Maule Super Rocket amphibian, but I'm a little bit biased there!

Moar military aircraft.

b1
B2
Goshawk
v-22 osprey
f-117
Grippen


Beluga
Super Guppy

Some of these have payware/freeware releases already, but they aren't all that good unless I just haven't found the good ones.

[Ian P]

For Goshawk, check out Dino's freeware one. It'll be hard to top that even as payware.

I remember making a thread on the old simflight forums with a poll on whether pilots prefer using the virtual cockpit or not. I did this immdediately after reading DA's explanation as to why they didn't include a VC; which was basically on the lines of "most pilots don't use a vc". It was a terrible excuse at the time, especially considering the response on here, which showed not only do most pilots prefer a VC, but many refuse to fly an add-on that doesn't have one. (Oh how we've changed since our 2D Meigs Field days . It's great to see even those veterans who swore by the 2D cockpit have left it for good!   )

Long story short, I want a little fokker (sorry coudn't resist), a Dornier 328 and a BAe 146-300. All with realistic dynamics, comprehensive manuals, and most importantly, a Virtual Cockpit.

Great topic and my first post. I mostly fly GA aircraft and enjoy bush and low and slow flights. One of my favorite's from FS9 was Bill and Lynn Lyons' PA-22 Piper Tri-pacer. They turned the humble Tri-pacer into a work of art, and what a joy to fly. Anyway, I miss it and would love to see an equivilant PA-22 (160 version) for FSX. Does anyone remember this rendition by Bill Lyons?

Thanks for the topic,

Ted

On another forum I read that people are looking for a good Lockheed Tristar.

[Ian P]

Just as another quick aside, Stavros, there are two BAe146-300s currently in development as free additions to existing FSX native packages - JustFlight (who have released a -200 already) and QualityWings (who have released RJ70/85/100 models already).
