Hey thanks for the list. Sorry to be picky but weāre counting the Arrows (Turbo and NA / 3 and 4) together. Do you want to shuffle that up and add a 5th Aircraft? ![]()
1.WT C4J
2.Flysimware Cessna 414 AW
3. DA62X (Modded)
4.Fenix A320
5.Aerosoft CRJ 700
Special mention:
PMDG 737 - Just not flown it enough yet to deserve a Top 5 place.
-
Justflight BAE 146
Complicated and a little antiquated systems make this fun to fly. -
Working Title Cessna CJ4
Runs and flies well. Love the sounds and passenger briefings. -
Aerosoft CRJ 700/900
Tricky to learn but a great airliner to fly. -
FBW A320Neo
-
Salty Boeing 747
Honorable mentions Simworks Kodiak 100 & Asobo Cessna 172: I havenāt flown the Kodiak much yet. I wish it had Simbrief integration but I donāt really count that against it. Flies great from my experience so far though.
Asoboās 172 is what Iāve done some bush flights in and they seem great. Default system is pretty easy to use too.
Asobo Kingair is fun sometimes but the taxi problems and so many disabled buttons and inflexible camera make me stay away.
Caveat to my opinions: these are basically also all the planes Iāve flown so far!
Old list:
- Islander - Still doing my tour and it is just a nice nitty gritty down to earth plane.
- BAe-146 - Have not flown her too much yet due to a lack of time ands CTD issues not related to this plane. Fantastic plane, very capable and very fast and easy to set up and get going.
- Kodiak - Also used on the tour. Mainly for longer trips where the Islander gets a bit too slow. (while the sound is fantastic, it is also ultra boring)
- JF Arrow - Not flown much, only troubleshoot and document some issues with the FM for me atm, that are being looked into by JF.
- Nothing atm But i am having an eye on the Twotter/310/Trislander/B737/MD-80/freedomfox who knows, maybe one of these is on one of the spots next time.
New list.
- Trislander - Weāll itās a bigger Islander, what is not to like and a lot more detail then the Islander.
- Islander - There is just something about this box. Canāt beat two NA pistons (except put on 3)
- BAe-146 - I donāt fly it enough but absolutely fantastic module.
- Arrows by JF
- Kodiak - I have honestly started to become more and more bored in the Kodiak.
My original list is quoted below:
- Fenix Airbus
- Milviz C310R
- SWS Kodiak
- FlyingIron Spitfire
- Just Flight Arrows
What a crazy few weeks itās been. I hate to drop any planes off the list, as I still fly the FBW Airbus and the Freedom Fox frequently. The Fenix Airbus is just so great, and will keep me learning for a really long time. Milviz C310R is groundbreaking as well, and is my favorite GA. Still flying the Spit around the world and she just got a huge update, making it even better than before.
Here my list:
- Aerosoft DHC-6 Twin Otter
- SWS Kodiak 100
- Aerosoft CRJ 700
- P42 Fox2
- Milviz PC-6 Porter

Fenix is amazing.
Loving the 414 v2.0, it just keeps on getting better.
The C208 has fallen due to the C414 and the C172 will be me getting my low and slow GA fix after Fenix.
The CJ4 is being used less and less ATM - still great though!

I love how there are Airliner fliers, GA fliers, Bush fliers, and mixed. But usually there is something from 1 or two other categories even for each of those groups.
Some variation is important, prevents burnout.
Iām giving an updated list because other than the C22J and Hawk I havenāt bought anything in a while so the others have settled into regular flyers
- Caproni Vizzola C22J Ventura
- Junkers JU-52
- SWS RV-14
- Big Radials Grumman Goose
- Carenado D17 Staggerwing
I grabbed the C22J on sale for $5.50 and this thing is an unbelievable amount of plane for the money. Sounds and flies great, has great nav instruments, Iām having a blast with it
I agree on the C-22J. Each time I fly it I realize that I have absolutely no gripes with it. It simply works and flies great. It really is an amazingly well done aircraft for this sim.
- Fenix A320
- Just Flight 146 Professional
- SWS Kodiak
- Aerosoft Twin Otter
- Blackbox BN Islander
My list at this time

- Salty Simulations B747-8i (the queen is getting better and better)
- PMDG B737-700 (still waiting for the PFD update but pretty solid so far)
- Just Flight BAe 146-100 (when you are tired of technology but still want to be fast, fun oldschool jet)
- Asobo Cessna Longitude (with the Working Title avionics, just classy and pleasant to fly.)
- PMDG 737-700
- FBW A320 & Fenix A320 (FBW set the standard here)
