The highest priority airplanes you want to see in MSFS

This is tough, because I think most of us would simply settle for "All of them!" Until then, my list:

P-39
Mossie (Come on, Dave, what's taking so long? Oh right, the other plane you're working on. ;) )
Privateer (-2 single tail with dual .50 blisters)
V-22
V-280
T-7A (On Dino's to do list, but it will be awhile)
Cessna Crusader
Rutan Catbird (Long shot, but why not)
Glasair III RG
Velocity V-Twin
Convair 990
Gripen JAS-39
Rockwell Jet Commander
Rockwell Sabreliner (Isn't one of these being worked on? Or was that P3D?)
Lockheed Jetstar II
F-86H

That should cover it for now. It's difficult to minimize the list. I should note that I didn't add anything that was made in the past by Carenado, such as the Aero-Commanders, as I figure they will eventually convert those to MSFS.
 
Anything that that hauls rubber dog crap out of Hong Kong will suite me lol in the Military Cargo Fleet.
 
Harrier (any)
Tornado GR1-3
Jaguar GR1-3
Lockheed Hercules C-130
Avro 698 Vulcan
Bell UH-1D
Westland Lynx
Westland Wessex
Sikorsky CH-53
Boeing CH-47 "Chinook"


If any of these will be released, I will take a change to MSFS into account - not until then! :applause:

Yes! Finally someone brings up rotary wing.
I would add:

AH1 Gazelle
OH 58 Kiowa (or Bell Jet Ranger)
UH-60 Blackhawk...or even better: Seahawk with littoral ops, USCG or Navy versions
MH-6 Little Bird

Finally an adult

I think your forget that, with the launch of MSFS on XBox, that it is now the gaming kiddies that make up the majority of the market of MSFS.

And I don't think that someone's taste in aircraft is an indication of whether the individual is an adult or not. Tastes and preferences in aircraft have nothing to do with being a grown up. They're exactly that: tastes and preferences.

Priller...If I had to guess, I don't think Paul was trying to disrespect anyone...I think he was alluding to the old Tom Gibson "Jets are for kids" mantra...and expressing his agreement with that sentiment.

I don't think that will last long. There's not enough "game" to the game ("It's not a game, it a simulator!!!") for the teenagers out there. They're going to go through the landing challenges, then maybe the bush trips, then declare it "finished" and move on. Then it will be back to those of use that appreciate relaxing during a nice flight from Key West to Cancun, or from San Juan PR to Princess Juliana.
 
What I primarily want is aircraft that are not available in other simulators. The Junkers D.I comes to mind. If I really want an aircraft I will buy the required simulator (which seldom happens).
 
While my biggest wish is a DC-3, which AH has promised us will be here by end of year, but next what I would like to see is a decent DC-7C. We have had decent DC-4s and DC-6Bs recently but its been awhile since we had a 7C
 
never seen in any flight sim before...hmmm - always wanted one of these

I'm afraid the quest for less "mainstream" subjects will continue to be a long one. MSFS is a very different proposition to build for, payware or freeware. The time, effort and resources are far greater. So payware titles are likely to continue to be "middle-road" choices because the ROI is greater and more assured. Freeware will be down to time - whether the developer has sufficient time and patience to produce more obscure titles. Unless they have access to specialist skills like WWise sound production, sounds will be legacy. Material and texture development will also slow progress. So it is likely that the more obscure subjects will continue to be legacy imports if they are freeware. Nothing wrong with that if that is what you are after but dedicated native productions is another story altogether.:engel016:
 
I live only for the dreams I have - thanks for the cold bucket of water Baz...lol

The ol Bv-138 Sea Dragon had a production near 300 units - so yeah - not a chart topper
