The flight models for the aircraft are completely unrealistic in every regard. As a pilot who flies a C152 at least once a week, I can tell you first hand that the C152 flight model in Flying Club X is completely ridiculous. It flies way faster than any real C152 I've been in; it 'crashes' in calm air from overstress well below Vne; the engine sounds more like a powered parachute engine and nothing like a C152; the trim behavior is totally unrealistic requiring full down trim for level flight; you can't slip the plane; the yoke gets in the way of being able to see the VSI in virtual cockpit mode; the autorun program doesn't even work - which will be your first indication that shoddy programming awaits you.

If you are the type of sim pilot who could care less about how real the planes behave, and only care about adding more 'pictures' to your airplane selection list, then by all means get this.

However if you care about sim realism even a little bit, then steer clear of this product - it will teach you nothing at all about flying the planes represented.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Helicopter Addon for FSX, June 14, 2011

The Schweizer 300 in this addon is the best Helicopter addon for FSX for VFR flight. The performance hit on the sim (FPS) is not noticeable at all.

The flight model is decent enough (FSX is noted for a so-so helicopter flight model) and the 3d cockpit along with the outside helicopter modeling is excellent. Sounds are good too. The rest of the planes in the package are decent but not the best out there....

This addon is worth the price just for the Schweizer 300 alone which you will wind up flying alot if you like helicopters!

Buy it for the Schweizer 300. You won't be sorry.

Good product, considering that many of the aircraft types included I have flown myself, in real life.

However, I was not happy with the shipping. In big green letters, Amazon said that if one ordered next day shipping before a certain date, one would get it before the weekend. Well, it came a week later. Should have paid for the cheaper shipping option.
