Freeware Gems

Followed Motormouse lead (above) and went to this address:

http://www.fsnordic.net/Files

Nobody seems to have mentioned the Maule or have I missed it somehow ?

Go to "The most downloaded" link and you will find a little jewel which is quite remarkable for 2003 (VC included !)...:kilroy:

This plane comes in six declinaisons which should please even the most difficult taste...

Cheers,

Fleurdelys

Great freeware airports:

9Dragons Kai Tak
9dv2-1.zip, 9dv2p1-1.zip, 9dv2p2-4.zip, 9dv2p3-4.zip, 9dv2p4-4.zip, ai_kt_hb.zip, 9dktales.zip on Flightsim; 9dv2-1.zip, 9dv2p1-1.zip, part_2of4.zip, 9dv2p3-4.zip, 9dv2p4-4.zip, ai_kt_hb.zip, 9dktales.zip on avsim

Payware Quality rendering of Hong-Kong, including photo-textures for most of the island, custom autogen, animated ships and cars, and two airports modelled (one more dismantled than modelled, but close enough).


Jesenicko v2
jes2.zip on Flightsim, jes2_051121.zip on Avsim

Small, impeccably modelled grass glider fields set in wonderfully done photo-real terrain. Truly a "Must" for the light-GA flyer!

CYEE, Huronia
huronia.zip on Flightsim, huronia_cyee.zip on Avsim

A small, photo-real airport in Ontario. Not fancy, but solid. Absolutely perfect alone, even better with Ultimate Terrain Canada/Alaska.
Features a nice set of objects, custom ground textures, and seasonally changing features.

I can't seem to get the link right for Flightsim.com library.

I'd really like to have the glider field, it looks very good....any help appreciated...:engel016:
 
Low & slow

When you like low and slow, the Golden Age Simulations WACO Taperwing Package is definitely something for you.

This is an early package from the Golden Age team and does not yet fully meet the current standards from this team. However the package is definitely a gem for those who love low & slow and big beautiful engines!

Its available here in the download section:

A small fic can be found here:

Enjoy,

He's been retired a few years, but anything by Bill Lyons.

Aeroplane Heaven has some neat freebies, I strongly recommend their Seafires and F9F Panther

Dave Eckart's Stearman and B-26 Marauder

And to top off the list, anything by Milton Shupe and his Beech 18 is the top aircraft in my hanger, free or payware.
 
Whoa Henry!
Some of us haven't been around long enough to know what Ito at flightsim and upgrades at OH even MEANS!
Any links? :kilroy:

Beautiful screenshot nevertheless...
 
I'm really suprised nobody mentioned the name

Tim 'Piglet' Conrad

yet...

All his models are gems! My personal favourite is the Kingfisher!

Huub
 
Just search at flightsim [SIZE=-1]Kazunori Ito he has many models
The P61 is one of my favorites
the only floor with his models is that the fd's are jet engines
there are many repaints and a revised flight model here at the OH
search Henry for the flight dynamics

That's the problem with these threads, you always forget somebody who definitely doesn't deserve to be forgotten.

And the (C)FS community has a short memory as well. Does the name Corrado La Posta still say something? I still fly his wonderfull Fiat G.50 and Macchi MC.202 Folgore quite often.

Speaking about Italian aircrafts; Stephano's and Manuele's models are real gems as well and definitely on par with the top payware designers.

And of course the men from the Groundcrew Design Team! Their Heinkel He.111 is still a piece of art after all these years and their Bf110 (most of them still betas) are still the best around!

Cheers,
Huub

Yes but there is little or no value in saying "so-and-so" makes great models.
At some point somebody will feel insulted about being left out.
I think the aim was to pick out individually, freeware gems that shine brightest.

Now that you mention it, though, piglet's OV-10 is a long-time favourite, and is available here at SOH, with a couple of updates.
It has the funkiest nosegear suspension bob...
 
Alpha Bleu Ciel

Their F8F Bearcat and Corsair are a little dated but still state of the art in my book and there are some very good skins around for both.

And that's the definition of hitting the nail on the head. I have a feeling that this list may be nearing maturity. After that, my next task will be to somehow collate the information and figure out a way to put it to good use. That will be a bit of a challenge!:kilroy:
