I know there are alway many suggestions for new aircraft being brought into the game but here is an interesting suggestion for a new aircraft that would be fun to introduce into the next version of the game.

Tha MA-60

Its the modernnised Antonov 26 from China with Western Engines and Collins Avionics. I will be willing to help with the data gathering for it.

Then we should have the Tu-204 with the RR engines and the Honeywell flight deck. It performs similar to the 752, but its a bit shorter and I hear it costs way less then their western counterparts. I think that there should be more some Tupolevs in the game as well as some modern IL and Antonovs and even that Regional that Sukhoi is building. Only problem is I recall that miller has problems trying to find operating statistics for these planes, so writing up the script would be rather difficult. Would love to see any type of Russian aircraft actually. But if the beta is any clue, we might see many aircraft from V1 making a return in V3.

The reason I would like to see the MA-60 included is that I think it would be a nice competator to the SAAB 2000. In the game each thuboprop has a paralell apart from the SAAB:

B1900-J31
Do328-E120-Q100
ATR42-Q200/300
SAAB2000-MA60
Q400-ATR72

I think it would fit nicely into the game.

I think one of my favorites is the AN148.

[sawilson1971]

If only Avro (BAe Systems) has switched the RJX to 2 engines from 4 then they would of had a winner on their hands.

Yeah. The AN148 helps me imagine what a stretched D328J would look like. :sdrool:

Since we are on this topic, wouldn't everyone go for the MD-80s and DC9s? I mean they would fit in nicely as well!

[xtra airlines]

definitly with the md-80's. i also think they should add md-11's and freighter aircraft.

[sawilson1971]

If my memory serves me right a freight oftion is due to be included in V3.

Don't know about MadDogs, but the 9s were in V1. I remember talking with a very experianced veteran about it. But it has been hinted that it might be in V3.

If my memory serves me right a freight oftion is due to be included in V3.

Maybe that will help with most of the Capacity issues everyone is having.
