Essential FS9 Addons

[ScottyB]

Hi guys,

I am reinstalling FS9 and going to get both freeware and payware addons. Up until now I have only used freeware; but have finally given in as I want to make my sim as realistic as possible.

So this leads me to my question: What are the best/most recommended addons for FS9 (Freeware and/or Payware)?

Out of the freeware addons I have used thus far in FS9 i think the best have been:

- Red Baron 75m mesh
- Real Environment Pro
- Glacier Bay
- All POSKY models

Let's compile a list! Preferably with links and prices (if payware).

Cheers guys,
Scotty

Scott , id go directly to http://www.windowlight.co.nz/ for all FS9 scenery , add this to many freewares you should have many off these already .

[Bazza]

If you're reloading you probably know about Lawries airports via : http://fs-snowman.com/

This will cover most of NZ in realistic airports, payware quality for nix...

[Fozzer]

...don't forget, if you haven't already got it...>>>

Payware...

REX for FS2004: http://www.realenvironmentxtreme.com/fs9.html

For all the lovely Cloud, Water, Ground, etc, effects... ...!

Tip: If you decide, get the CD Version rather than the Download version, to avoid any possible Download "re-installation difficulties?" in the future.... ...!

Paul....FS 2004...REX...GE Pro...VOZ 1.8... ....!

P.S. I find VOZ 1.8 wonderful for obtaining a variation in the Scenery effects for different parts of the World, from sandy deserts, to lush vegetation; "colours".

Wow, I see a night of downloading and installing in my near future. Awesome list mate!

[SeanTK]

Ian pretty much covered the ultimate FS Scenery list with the freewarescenery.com page (formerly known as the "Walhalla Mine" listing), but if you want some specific recommendations from me, I can make a list for that too!

Enjoy the aircraft list!

Scotty , forgot to mention this link - http://www.freewarescenery.com/fs2004.html

Robert-Jan has now updated the dead AVSIM links, pointing them to Snowman's site instead.

Sean, your aircraft list is world famous, I haven't managed to catch you out yet!
Absolutely go for a scenery list, in the local context complemented by
