What Aircraft do YOU Want to See in FlightGear?

Postby FighterAce » Wed Oct 25, 2017 10:31 pm

Dear FlightGear Community,

Okay, so I will start off this thread by saying that there are a TON of aircraft that I would love to see in FlightGear. FG currently has a large variety of airplanes, but I feel that it lacks some. That is the reason that I am creating this thread. I would like to hear what aircraft YOU want to see in FlightGear. Please post your replies in the comments below, and maybe somebody will develop the aircraft that you post! Thanks!,

the Vigilante is one that i remember as a youth in southern Georgia... they used to fly out of NAS Albany (aka Turner AFB) all the time... the F4 Phantom and the B52 were also flown out of there...
"You get more air close to the ground," said Angalo. "I read that in a book. You get lots of air low down, and not much when you go up."
"Why not?" said Gurder.
"Dunno. It's frightened of heights, I guess."

I'd love a Tiger Moth tbh, if it had reasonable modelling and a good (read: accurate, not aeromatic, not yasim) fdm. It's always been one of my favourites.

The RA-5 & various F-4 are in Dave Culps hangar, but most of the links aren't working at the moment. I probably have archives of all of them somewhere, but if someone nudges Dave I'm sure he'll get around to fixing the links.

That said I'd love to see higher quality models of them, plus oddities like the F4D Skyray, F7U Cutlass, F3H Demon, F-11 Tiger and Supermarine Scimitar

OK - I guess I like odd carrier aircraft :)

+1

I can assist with FDM and autopilot. In my youth I simulated the VC10 (and BAC 1-11) many times at BAC Weybridge, and have accumulated many simulators hours of flying and checking everything before I was happy to pass it on to the company test pilots (Trubshaw, Baker etc)
