Is there a list of P3D v4 compatible add-on aircraft?  I think one has been published a few months ago but I can't remember where.  I have looked in the Just Flight list of v4 add-ons (there are 376) but they seem to be mainly scenery with a few aircraft scattered through the list.  A simple list showing just aircraft would make life much easier.

Do 32 bit aircraft work correctly in P3D v4?  I would like to use the v4 scenery but want to keep my 32 bit aircraft.

Thank you.

Hi,
If you select the type of aircraft you are interested in on the Flight Simulation Add-Ons section, you can then filter by sim and see exactly what you want. 
For instance, this page will give you all the P3Dv4 airliners - https://www.justflight.com/category/flight-sim-add-ons/airliners?sim=p3d+v4

No, 32-bit aircraft do not work in P3dv4. Well some of them do, but most of them don't.

Do not put non-v4 aircraft into v4.

Thanks for the advice.  I was hoping I could put the Iris Texan Driver for v3 into v4.  It is disappointing I won't be able to do this.

There are quite lot of add-ons which 'mostly' work in P3D v4.

If there are any dlls then these will not function. If you know how and what, these functions can be removed/ignored.

There is no such thing as a 32-bit model, only 32-bit gauges and control dll. If the gauge functionality is xml based, then there should be no issues.

I have the Iris PC-9 and PC-21 both more or less fully functional. Don't own the Texan II, so no idea with that.

Best thing to do is try them. I have a Test folder for anything I am trying, and never install directly into the P3D v4 installation. You can add this to your model folders list.

If you show reasonable care you just end up occasionally disappointed. If the model and interior model are separate there is a 90% chance it will work. Anything with these combined (FS9 legacy) will not.

One thing that does seem consistent though across many models is the fuel management functionality. Personally this does not bother me as I never fly any single aircraft for long.

Good luck!
