I think the AFP is very close to realistic maybe a little floaty feeling but you can add weight to help that. Go download a smaller size plane if the 40% stuff flies to easily. The U cando an the Magic come to mind. Ground handling is not good but I believe thats something Ipacs knows about. Yea it would be nice to have great ground handling but the FLYING is what im interested in and the flying part is great. If you think its to easy go modify it till its harder. You get the best of both worlds with AFP a good 3D landscape OR if photorealism is your thing you can add that! Photo realism makes for some great screen shots but isnt that great for flying in my opinion. Oh and I guess I should add.......
I AM NOT ASSOCIATED WITH OMP OR IPACS IN ANY WAY.
