I just got into flight simming with the release of FS2002. I have had it since January of 2002, and at the end of May I wanted to try out bush flying. It just happened that I had downloaded the Huey from planesimulation.com that had the BFU logo on it. I typed in "Bush Flying Unlimited" in a search engine, and that's how I found BFU. When I got into it, I found out that liked it, more than I expected. I like the Beaver because it has very good STOL capabilities, and symbolizes the bush more than any plane I've seen. I also like the C185 because it is faster than the Beaver, but I mostly just fly the DHC-2.
