I heartily endorse the production of a TransAvia AirTruk for MSFS, how’s that for a differently shaped aircraft?!?

If they ever intro a good aerial firefighting add-on into this sim I would tip over.

That might be the ugliest plane I’ve ever seen. Hideous.

There are definitely worse:

Oh wow that’s awful. Although I think with a fresh paint job it would be more of a toss up between the two planes.
The following dream aircraft…
AT 802 Fire Boss
CalFire OV-10 Bronco
CalFire Grumman S2T
At one point the Grumman S2T was under development, but it’s been 18 months

This was my list for May:
The Black Square Analog Baron has to stay in the hangar now. With battery on and engines not started it looses 2% engine health each minute. I love to take my time with startup and loose 6 or 7% each time. State saving doesn’t make sense then. Until I know what’s the reason for it I don’t fly it. We are so lucky to have plenty of good aircraft in the sim now.
I got the Transall recently but I’m a bit disappointed. Some may say that it’s ok for the price but this for me is not an argument. Maybe it will be improved over time but for now it didn’t make it into my top 10.
Instead of the Baron the Beech Staggerwing joined my top 10. Would be nice if it got an improvement like the Denarq mod for the 18.
So here is my list for June, again in alphabetical order.
- Beechcraft Staggerwing
- Blackbird C310
- Black Box L-19 Bird Dog
- Black Square A36 Bonanza
- Denarq Beech 18
- JF BAE 146
- JF Piper Warrior II
- Microsoft DHC-2 Beaver
- PMDG DC-6
- WB-SIM Cessna 172
If it were a top 20 list my next 10 aircraft would be (in no particular order):
Bulldog, Islander, G44, C152, C140, C-160, C170B, C-22J, B314, P28 Arrow III
And here’s what else I fly:
Stearman, Tiger Moth, Farman F60, Corsair, S.55, DC-3, G36
I’m looking forward to the Black Box Shorts. Their aircraft all have character.
Also Just Flights F-28 and Vulcane are strong candidates for my top 10 list.
And I want to give the C414 a try sooner or later.

Your wish has been granted. Time to tip over!

Indeed it is! That will be very interesting to see the reviews on but I have to say, they sure nailed the dispersion pattern of the retardant drop on the 747. That looks very convincing for a simulation. I might fall for the hype and grab it early.

Oh wow that’s fantastic. I was watching blancolirio’s excellent walk around and interview with the pilot of this on YouTube very recently. Amazing conversion. I so have to get this, go and help out in BC for now, then when summer comes I can fly it down here and fight some bush fires.
My PC parts should arrive by the release date so I’ll actually be able to get this and not sit with envy like had been the case until now!

Fly the King Air 350i as a lead plane and direct AI controlled SuperTankers to drop on mission targets, or take control of the HPG 747 SuperTanker yourself and configure the drop system for precise fire suppression or offshore cleanup efforts.
Cool!

This looks great.

Don’t see a thread for it.
Shame seems only on SimMarket as I am still resisting making account there 
Ooh exciting!! What did you get? Dropping the Xbox then?
Agreed. I also refuse to use simmarket.
For example I have resisted the Rans S6S, despite sounding great with rave reviews and comments, for just that reason. Though apparently the Rans S6S is now avaialble on Inibuilds so I most likely will now pick it up:

If you like low and slow, you won’t be disappointed. Perhaps the best flight model in the sim too…
I’ll post later with more info when I’ve got it all working. Unfortunately in Aus regular parcel delivery commonly takes over a week, it’s not like the UK where 1-2 days is just standard. 2 out of 4 packages arrived inside a week and the other 2 I’m still waiting for.

It’s a scary world out there! 
You’re missing out on the Rans S6S, assuming you like bush planes.
