Can anyone recommend a good freeware AI package for the south pacific region? Freeware only please! I mainly fly in NZ, with some hops to the Sydney / Melbourne, and the pacific islands, so I'm looking for something with good light aircraft AI as well as the heavies.
Also... and I know this may be asking a bit much? Is there a heli AI package around?

Im going to get corrected here ... go to the ORBX site , they have a freeware AI that really suits New Zealand and course land in Melbourne/Sydney still all there .

FTX AI would be the more up to date , it wont hurt if you install both .

Does the FTX AI have Domestic Air NZ flight plans? If so, I'm there.

Might have a go at that. I seem to recall combining AIs a while back though and had aircraft doubling up etc... hmmm....
For me the big thing is the small aircraft AI, because I mostly fly in and out of places like Tauranga, New Plymouth etc.

Sweeeet. As soon as the broadband comes back, I'm going straight to the download section

Gotta give it a go.
Also, just a quick tip, I have my AI set up so the BGL files are in their own folders as if they were scenery. Then I have them activated in the scenery library. This means if you have two types of AI like FTX and VOZ, you can selectively activate either one (or both if you feel like getting a bit crowded) and pick and choose the packages that fly around without having to disable or move files.
