I feel vintage British aircraft are a little under represented in the sim so I’d have to vote for either of these:

Westland Lysander, just a fanatically odd but inspired design.

I think all of Hawker biplane series are particularly fantastic looking aeroplanes but the pick of the bunch for me is the Hawker Hind.

Apparently, having a mid or high quality Embraer jet on Xbox is already a very long shot. So, my picks are a passenger E-jet (E1 or E2) or ERJ

The AVRO Arrow.

Unfortunately, it probably couldn’t be accurately modeled in anything other than looks, due to the plane and everything related to it being ordered destroyed after cancelation by Prime Minister John Diefenblunder in 1959.

I forgot that I had posted this as a wishlist item way back when before this thread existed, so I’ll mention it here too. The PL-12 Airtruk, made famous in “Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome” is one of those planes that so ugly “only a mother could love it.” Its max takeoff weight is nearly double (more in later variants?) its empty weight, so it’s a highly capable design.
