December list:
1 A2A Piper Comanche 250
2 Flightsimware Cessna 414
3 JustFlight BAE 146
4 FSReborn M500
5 Wing42 Boeing 247D
6 PMDG Boeing 737-600
7 Redwing Constellation
8 Beechcraft D18 (denarq mod)
9 Redwing Farman F60
10 GotFriends Wildcat F4F
The Farman Is really fun to fly (and so slow…) planning to go from Le Bourget to Dakar with Redwings 1935 airfields.
Wildcat is my first wardbird, acrobatics over Duxford (superb freeware mod) is great…
I really enjoy the Analog Turbo Baron at the moment. I like it so much that I barely use other aircraft for a while.
Sometimes some stunts with the Vertigo but thats it. Waiting for the Piaggio Avanti, Beech Starship and an nice Gulfstream.
I know what you mean. It’s a strange effect.
Top of my wishlist is a Mosquito FBVI. As well as building it, I was given a copy of the classic Sharp & Bowyer history at the age of about 12 and fell for it completely.
Yep, a Mossie too! Another do-it-all aircraft … you could say that the Canberra is a jet age Mosquito?
If you’re going to do one then the other is only a slight difference ( at least if you’re not doing one of the really long wing B-57s! ). OK it’s a new cockpit but I very much doubt it flies differently & FM work is agonisingly time consuming.
Screenshots really taken from a Canberra.
Quite literally designed as the replacement. I fly the DCS Mossie around just for the pleasure of flying it, so yeah, a Mossie ( just do the bomber one for MSFS, we don’t need guns & it’d have a nice dome to look out of ) would be my GA aircraft of choice.

I had a whole bunch of models that aren’t in the sim yet - including one of those Revell B-36s. Somehow I can’t see that turning up 
I don’t even have a Camel, where on earth is that?!
I suspect a lot of us who grew up with the cold war still going ( even if it was fading ) have service connections - while I’m not exactly patriotic there is a nostalgia factor. British a/c tend to be pretty quirky too ( also either rubbish or brilliant! )
My current list…
Oh man, Canberra, Nimrod or U2 I’m all over it but they must come with cameras
Yes, especially in a no-combat sim like MSFS, a PR variant makes most sense … or an EW variant, with as many aerials and bumps / bulges as possible.
Usually a bit of both.
Yep, I’d go with that.
Proper multi role aircraft in the sim is a whole new list @Baracus250 
Hahah - you’re MOST welcome to start it lol!
That’s another interesting angle. As well as growing up through the Cold War, my dad went through the ATC as a cadet and was then commissioned so I grew up around aviation.
I can still clearly remember buying a copy of Flight International in the summer of 1986 and being freaked out by a story that the Soviet Union had developed a “look down, shoot down” radar for its fighters.
My overall world view is very different to his and yet there is still that nostalgic pull.
And for anyone interested in British post war aviation (which as you say was either brilliant or rubbish) I can recommend James Hamilton-Patterson’s Empire of the Clouds.
Yep the B36 is pretty niche! I think I also had one from some kind of weird petrol pump promotion…
And the Camel! Are you thinking this one?
Maybe it should be a nostalgia thread to save derailing this one!
I was concerned that we were getting a bit off topic!
One (last?) thought, about the Camel … the struggles that devs have with flight models in the sim, both developing them in the first place, and then convincing us moaning lot that they are similar to reality … I wouldn’t like to be the one showcasing a rotary-engined Camel flight model!
Has to be the fugly and ill fated Nimrod AEW3…
If someone develops a Nimrod they may as well make the DH106 while they are at it .
No idea when I last updated.
Mine was engineering branch ( worked on TSR2 as a youngster! ) & got out when I was pretty young, but definitely started me off. Growing up in a low-flying area with fast jets every 20 mins probably helped too

JF 146 is on slightly shaky grounds, having just had a flight. Cockpit FPS feels like it’s back to the levels of the initial release & it didn’t hold the ILS, which is a new one… hopefully there might be a small maintenance patch to give it some attention without butchering what makes it so good.
Making the prop very heavy might be enough for this sim!
Add the Ant’s Airplanes Winjeel at the bottom of the list - the more I fly it the more I’m loving how it flies ( especially aerobatics ). What’s stopping it being higher is the cockpit texturing which is perfectly fine, just not quite as good as the current best - the external model is very nice - and well, it’s not a Tiger Moth
