JustFlight and Flight1 are just publishers arn't they? Aeroplane Heaven sell through JF.

All the above ..... very true Andrew with AH they now go thru JF , early days independent .

sorry if I missed some. Though I was really only going to include the main publishers/Developers.

PMDG and PMDG for me, I own all there FS2004 stuff

I'd say Level-D was the best. Eaglesoft do some excellent work as well.
I think Flight1 do make some products, like the Flight1 ATR, Ground Environment, Flight Environment etc etc. JF is just a publisher I think; a recent addition was the PSS products.

I suppose you must also ask, why have the option "I don't own any" in the bottom section; if people don't own the product, how can they really tell how much they like it?
My latest addition has been the Aerosoft DA Piper Cheyenne, which I enjoy immensely and can wholeheartedly recommend; so that's who got my vote.

Although PMDG make some good products for sure, I feel that they are overpriced, and some are starting to show their age whilst still being sold at that high price...

Flight 1 and Just Flight do develop their own products as wel - Just Flight Robbie 44, Piper Warrior/Seneca/Archer/Tomahawk Cessna 152 amonst others. Flight 1 products (some were made in conjunction with Dreamfleet) include Cessna 172R/152/421/441, Pilatus PC-12, ATR-72 etc

I'd count Carenado/Alphasim as 'main' payware makers, they just don't do airliners.

Always liked PSS, don't know where they have ended up. PSS made the best panels and there aircrafts were the best too.
Never been that impress with PMDG panels to be honest, there panel/gauge bitmaps have always been pretty crappy for a payware company.
Its ashame because everything else like aircraft models are fantastic.
Really like Flight 1's Super 80 (love the MD-80 and DC-9) and Wilcos 737pic - which is cool to fly the older 737's and Level-d 767.
