They’re effectively the equivalent of a cosmetic skin. Even if you buy just a singular airplane, there’s no difference between all of the different paint schemes when it comes to performance.

That said, you can either buy each of the classes as a bundle for $22.49 USD each, thus nabbing you all of the paint schemes for each class, or you can buy just a single airplane with one custom paint scheme on its own for $7.49 USD. Keep in mind that these aircraft, the Pitts S-1S, P51 Mustang, T-6 Texan and L-39 Albatross, can be used in both Race mode and also Free Flight mode to go anywhere in the world. However, you won’t get all of the paint schemes for those planes. There’s also the standalone Expansion Pack for $9.99 USD, which includes the race airport, all of the race modes, and also the four classes of race planes. You can buy the Full Collection for $42.49 USD, which includes the entire expansion (the race airport in Reno and the Air Race game modes) along with all four classes of race aircraft in all of their custom paint schemes.

The Reno Air Races content is spread around in Microsoft Flight Simulator across different bundles. Until September 19, customers can buy the expansion in several forms for 50% off. The first part, Techniques, provides accessible instruction on methods for designing and analyzing computer algorithms. Microsoft Flight Simulator‘s Reno Air Races expansion pack is now currently on sale for a discounted price to honor the recent start of the real-life event.
