To help discussion, I've tried to list all the contemporary "airliners"
and give some idea of how much functionality (for flying) is
implemented.
Aircraft = model name (not necessarily exactly same as FG model name)
Status = 0 - basic flyable model, 1 - basic animations + some cockpit,
2 - 3D cockpit + quality fdm + AP, 3 - complete 3D cockpit + fine-tuned
autopilot and FDM + extras, X - failed to load with git or CVS build
V2.0.0
Owner = authors name
CVS = not in CVS (none), work in progress with commits to CVS (WIP), CVS
doesn't match latest download (unsync), otherwise assumed Up-to-date in
CVS
License = assumed GPL if in CVS, otherwise download location
Aircraft Status Owner CVS License/Download
Notes
737-100 1-2 BARANGER
737-300 1-2 Culp, Cunningham, Schulz WIP
737-400 2 updated 737-300 NiTuS, Bisutti none iEspana team
(apparently still WIP)
737-800 1 Culp, Cunningham
737-900ER 2-3 xsaint, Adams none UnitedFreeWorld
(appears to use 777 cockpit components)
747-100 1 Jim Wilson, Andy Ross
747-200 1 uncredited
747-400 2-3 Gijs de Rooy, Jentron WIP
(latest CVS update has .ac errors from pilot view)
777-200ER 3 Justin Smithies, Syd Adams unsync personal site
787 X (3) Joshua Wilson
(YASim SOLUTION FAILURE)
A319 0 Malik Guest none from forums
(fails to load sound)
A320 0 Ampere, Jonberg from forums
(seems based on A320-Family)
A320-111 0 Culp, Bouvier
(A320-family)
A320-131 0 Culp, Bouvier
(A320-family)
A330-200 0 Djeferson, Isaias Prestes none personal site
(unable to start, errors with .ac from pilot view)
A340-600 0 Liam Gathercole none personal site
(currently being developed)
A380 2 Ampere,Cunningham,Dalvi,Hamilton unsync from fg wiki
(WIP available outside CVS, dependant on V2.0 features)
CRJ-200 2-3 Joshua Wilson unsync from forums
(Nasal errors with V2.0.0)
dhc8-300Q 1 Alex Park unsync from forums
Fokker50 2-3 Hofman, Andrews
(malformed autopilot definition with V2.0.0 Git)
Fokker70 0-1 Erik Hofman
(malformed autopilot definition with V2.0.0 Git)
Fokker100 0-1 Erik Hofman
(malformed autopilot definition with V2.0.0 Git)
Concorde 3 uncredited
(Nasal runtime error in autopilot, low frame-rate)
MRJ-90 0-1 Tatsuhiro Nishioka none personal site
(WIP still??)
MD-11 0 Ampere Hardraade
(malformed autopilot definition)
Tu-154b X Yurik V. Nikiforoff
(aborted load with "No node found for gear/left-brake-cmd-norm")
tu-154 0-1 Pavlenko, Moderau, Okan, Savchenko
ATR42-500 0-1 Bourgeois, Kenning, Foster none from forums
ATR42-600 0 Bourgeois, Kenning, Foster none from forums
(doesn't load very well)
So the most complete are; Concorde, 777-200ER, and from memory the 787
(I couldn't load the 787 with V2.0.0, and the 777-20ER is from Syd's
site)
the next level of completeness are; 737-900ER, 747-400, CRJ-200 and
Fokker50 (the 737-900ER is from UFW, 747-400 still in development)
and then the next level of adequate functionality; 737-400, A380 (both
are in active long-term development and not committed to CVS)
Now comes the subjective part, which aircraft are nice to use, nice to
look at and popular. My votes go to;
787 (needs updating for V2.0.0)
777-200ER (needs updating for V2.0.0)
CRJ-200
Fokker 50
747-400
A380
737-400
and in the interests of transparency, I am one of many co-authors of the
A380.

Throughout its 18-year history, RSA Conference consistently attracts the
world's best and brightest in the field, creating opportunities for Conference
attendees to learn about information security's most important issues through
interactions with peers, luminaries and emerging and established companies.
