RAZBAM - GRUMMAN A-6 INTRUDER

RAZBAM - GRUMMAN A-6 INTRUDER

This plane is a perfect balance of high-fidelity without over complicating things. PROBLEM: When you keep lowering throttle beneath 0 percent, VC throttle appears static at zero but engines will rev up to full throttle. *Easily avoidable though. Otherwise, this is my favorite payware addon in FS9. The flight model is fun (very accurate?) when you figure it out, and this plane is simply gorgeous to fly from the VC with trackir 5 even on laptop it is FPS friendly. If you like the A-6 or EA-6, RAZBAM has the best of all. I named the Bengals A-6A model and grown to personally feel the same connection I have with my car with this plane, it will draw you into the flow and rush of a fighter/attacker without slamming an entire full fidelity module on your head. I absolutely recommend anything RAZBAM makes, but this is just art. And I cannot say that about any other company.

VIRTAVIA - CH-53A SEA STALLION

VIRTAVIA - CH-53A SEA STALLION

Easily the best helo in FS2004. Probably the best stock sound file, and flies very nicely. Feels like a big heavy but still agile helo, as they are. Can't say enough about it, top 5 FS9 add-ons in my honest opinion. Some of Virtavia/Alpha models are not worth the money (as they are mostly freeware now), but this one is so much worth every penny. I fly in VC 99%, so it reigns top 5.

PAINTSIM - HD REALISTIC CLOUDS FS9

PAINTSIM - HD REALISTIC CLOUDS FS9

I'm using the 512px version to help with frame rates but it's still such a huge upgrade I can't imagine what the higher quality version would be like. This is a very simple but big upgrade, and it has practically no effect on FPS even on my underpowered laptop. I would recommend this, even though there is similar freeware and I have tried them, this is such a nice upgrade to simply drop in.
