There are thousands of usermade aircraft out there, so I was wondering if anyone cares to list a few that they think are of the highest quality, meaning a well made 3D model, skin, and a flight model that feels at home in the world of Third Wire sims.

I would say

1. MiG-29A from this pack http://combatace.com/files/file/12489-the-mirage-factory-mig-29-fulcrum-mod/

2. F-14's from this pack http://combatace.com/files/file/12327-tmf-f-14-tomcat-superpack/

3. ...and of course the Flying Bannana http://combatace.com/topic/67892-blackburn-buccaneer-released-for-sf2/

I enjoyed the Buccaneers. I haven't worked much with the more advanced aircraft. I have a strange
liking for the early 1960s Mirage IIIs of all sorts.

TMF's Mig-29 are great and have a gorgeous cockpit!
I love doing CAP or a fightersweep with them!

That pit is amazing. Probably the best user-made I've seen. And the MiG-29 is a very impressive plane. I thought it was "cheating" in SF2 until I looked thru the data.ini . All that stats seemed spot-on. I did a little test just to make sure there wasn't some hidden advantage. I reduced the fuel load (to about 25%) on a F-15A so that it matched the weight of a fully loaded MiG-29A (which has a slight advantage in thrust). I then took them from parked to 50K feet. The times were pretty close, with a slight advantage to the MiG. Too bad it has such a short range.

The Buccanneer wins by a length, but don't forget Bobrock's modern Harriers and his Tornado ADV. They are excellent.

Best pit is for the TMF Mig-29 for me.
Awesome, and really functional, nothing bothering or sitting in the way.
Perfect made!

My best regards, Kodiak.

That Buccaneer is nice . . . but seems extremely sensitive/weird in the roll axis . . .
