FS2004 freeware addons and mods

[Canman99]

Hi, I am a relative newbie to Flightsimming, but I am really enjoying it.

 

I was wondering if someone could list some of the best freeware mods and addons out there. Screenshots would be nice, too. Like everyone, I want to make my flightsim realistic and fun.

 

I am interested in finding the best runway texture, the best Canadian scenery and also AI aircraft.

 

I have AI aircraft from Project AI. Are they the best, or is there something else? (freeware)

I love in FSX & 2004 the big Plane selection.

Specially this Website:

The better look of the FS:

 

New better clouds (after install you can choose many different schemes):

RealityPack (many visual enhancements, textures, objects, water etc):

Default Airports upgrade (I'm not sure if something similar isn't included in reality pack above):

Glacier bay Alaska/Canada (there are 2 parts of this scenery to download):

Here is a database of almost all sceneries for almost all countries so go and find something :)

Aircrafts, here is my favourite freeware trio:

 

The best from the best from the best of freeware:

Tupolev Tu-154b

(a bit photoshopped screens, but I like them)

 

Boeing 747-400, with complete avionics including FMC

Saab J-35J Draken, in my opinion the only military jet worth playing in FS2004:

Unfortunately these aircrafts are hardcore ones, as real as it gets, so if you can't fly the default planes included in FS2004, don't even touch them :)

 

There are also many good addons which were given a reward here (check also previous years)

simviation.com , flightsim.com , avsim.com are the pages where you need to go when you want new addon for FS.
