Looking for a GREAT bipe... suggestions please!

Any chance that we can include links when suggesting possibilities? I shan't be able to fly until next week... But want to grab some of these as soon as I'm back at my Sim....

Ta- this has evolved exactly as I had hoped... Some true gems here!

Best- C

The more time I spend with the An-2 the more I like her. Have any of our SOH artists worked their palette on her?

have you looked at Sibwings website - they host a myriad of repaints

also OZX - thats one of the best places to find repaints for any aircraft / helo

I love the AN-2 cockpit - especially in a thunderstorm with the environment audio full on and the subwoofer rumbling on the thunder
 
Will do- Ta!

This is quite a wonderful simulation, and SO VERY DIFFERENT from anything else in the flight sim arena.

Best- Carl

Been following this thread pretty closely. It's good to be reminded of so many great options!

Huub-

I will definitely get the He 51 as soon as I'm back at my sim. Thank-you for including links. My hope is that this post will serve many others, not just me.

Hey Cody,

Thanks for the tip. I hadn't known of that aircraft for FSX. The graphics are quite nice actually. I like the hand prop option (like the Cub!!).

I have two issues with it, however. The sound cone seems to be knackered. I turn my head about 90 degrees (using TrackIR) and I hear the engine nicely, any other direction and it's basically inaudible. Is there a fix for this that anyone knows about.

EDIT: I dug around in the sound.cfg and saw that the Jenny prop files called for weren't present in the folder, so I grabbed them from the Jenny, added them to the folder and took her up again. All is well.

And was the rudder on the actual aircraft as ineffective as it is in this model? Sheeesh! It will slip, but not very effectively, since the rudder is so ineffective in the air and on the ground. I could probably accomplish the same yaw by just sticking my arm out the side! There doesn't seem to be enough rudder to keep it coordinated in turns.
I haven't spent much time with the aircraft because I've been busy in FS doing other things, but I'll take a look at it sometime. I don't seem to recall having too many issues.
 
How about the Boeing Model 40 from GAS...

Been flying the Antonov An-2 Colt the past few days. What a super airplane! Sibwings did an incredible job on it. Just so fun in so many ways, although it's not a plop in and go sort of addon. Still, the startup procedure is pretty simple and quick to learn and operate.
