Plane Suggestions

I’m planning on buying my first plane to increase the fleet. Any suggestions on what to buy? Don’t care if GA, commercial, military, anything is fine.

Thanks!

787, A320s, 777… most are quite good but just avoid the A330 and A340. 😉

If you are able to wait a little bit, the DC-10 / MD-11 is being released soon.

If you want something now, I would suggest the 747 or the 757. Both are easy to handle, fun to fly, and have very nice graphics and liveries.

since global is close, I would recommend getting the 777 (777-300er prefer) or one of the 787s. the 777-300er has a lot of routes in real life that you can do with the airlines in IF.
Such as Singapore to milan with Singapore airlines 777-300er or Adelaide to Dubai with emirates 777-300er!

The 787-9 is perfect. It is honestly the best 787 because the -8 is too short and the -10 is too long plus the -9 has the most range, perfect for global. It’s like goldilocks, “just right”

The -400 is already free though, no reason for another one unless the different selection of liberties and overall look is worth the $5

I just realized that’s what yu meant by “the other one”

Personally, I bought the -200 for the extra liveries. The old Pan Am livery, among many other historic planes. Also, the -200 is a little different than the -400. The -400 's engines are much more powerful, and its takeoff weight is higher.

Look at aircraft families, if the A321 is free there is no reason to buy the A320 unless you specifically like the different liveries. Same with the 747s, I suggest you get the Q400 as it is mixing things up. The Q is very unique in the game and has a good variety of liveries, and has very good flight charistics and a updated cockpit.

I highly recommend the 777 family, A340, or the A320 family.

That is fine, but I wouldn’t go buy the -200 to mix things up.

I find it interesting how people have very different opinions from each other. I think I’ll go with the 787-9 though, it seems to be the most popular aircraft. Who knows, maybe I’ll get two😁

Get the 787-9. I was gonna say the a320 but since you have the a321 already, go with something different… the 787-9 like others said. The Dash 8 is also a nice aircraft like Kevin said and it handles really well, but almost no one use it anymore, I love mine and I keep flying it.

787 or 777 I would chose the 787 because that’s the first l got

I would highly recommend the 777 or 787, they are high quality, a beauty to fly, and have auto land in case you want to use it.

And it was awsome it was a 787-9

Gotta love the Emirates 777-300ER. I plane on doing a flight from Seattle to Dubai when global is released.
