Good list of payware warbirds

Thanks, I didn't know it was still available. When you read the text it a bit funny again. Under compatibility is says "FS2004 only", however under features it is stated: "Full FSX model with self-shadows, specular maps, and bump maps".
Its a bit like with the Warbirdsim P51 set. The pictures there didn't cover the package which was offered.

From what I know the model is FS2004 and not FSX. However in the package there is a choice to install it in FS9 OR in FSX.... (will look at the FSX option later...)

Cheers,
Huub

I can confirm the installer gives the option for both fs9 and fsx, latest version is 2.1m

I saw the plane design one, thought it looked a bit average for my tastes.

yep the p-40 went freeware. http://www.irissimulations.com.au/hangar/free-flight-simulator-aircraft/classics-p-40-warhawk

I was looking at the hawker heroes, looks good. So the crap one from the package is the typhoon?

That Typhoon is bloody horrible!
Their Tempests are good but you need to hunt up repaints as the stock versions look like junk yard dogs!
The very best of the pack is the Hawker Fury, out-bloody-standing.
FCS Hurricane is pretty good and the one packaged with their awful Stuka is a different variant to the Hawkers Heroes pack.
Both the Lancaster and Wellington are well worth owning but avoid the truly appalling Sunderland!!!!!!!

RobH did a few very nice repaints for the Tempest, available here in the library.

Just bought the Just Flight Warbirds of WWII, very impressed by the quality. Only thing is this addon certainly would have issues on slower compters while flying in the vc. I've got a powerful computer and my rates drop by about 30-35% in the vc.

The Uiver (Douglas DC-2) was made by more or less the same team which did the MAAM B-25 and MAAM DC-3/C47/RD4. Similar to the MAAM model this models was done to raise money for a museum.

The model is based on the DC-2 which is currently owned by the Aviodrome. It was originally done as freeware for FS200 and FS2002. But when an attempt was done to get a flying DC-2 again in the Netherlands, the model was completely redone for FS2004 and released as donationware. There is a native FSX donationware version available as well.

The Uiver was the entry from KLM in the 1934 Melbourne race. The aircraft ended second overall behind the DH.88 Grosvenor House and won the handicap race. 50 years later the trip was done again with an ex-US Navy DC-2, which was owned by Colgate W. Darden III. In 1999 this aircraft was purchased with the intention to keep it in flying condition.

The FS2004 is available here: http://www.flight1.com/products.asp?product=dc2flight1

I have to write faster, because Stuart was faster than me!
 
It’s annoying it’s only listed under fsx addons and no fs2004 tags. Why I overlooked it, thanks guys :)
 
Purchased the Lavochkin Figthters from Flight1, pretty decent addon of some high performance russian warbirds. I emailed flight1 as the exe wasnt working and couldnt be purchased, but now it is :)
 
Not really a hot warbird, but definitely a very nice model! The Aeroplane Heaven/JustFlight Tiger Moth!

One does find some odd and forgotten items when trawling through old backup discs.
Anyone remember Cloud 9?
