Thanks John,

well there's one in the work from DF but release date still unknown and ofcourse the one from CS.

We all know how we think about CS

That is a roger on the CS Peter.

By the way, did you notice another review of the CS 727 at

http://www.avsim.com/pages/1109/CaptSim/727.htm?

This one praises it up so much I had to email them to find out whether the author, Laurie Aston, was envolved with CS. They recon not, but you have to wonder. If this review is compared with the one at

http://www.flightsim.com/main/review/capt727x.htm

Which I mentioned a few days ago. This, Kevin Glover, reckons it ain't much good as does the former real 727 pilot in the site mentioned towards the end of this one.

You have to go right to the end of that to get the 727 review.

But in the end, I suppose, some are just looking for a "pretty" aeroplane, while others want something that has as many of the flying characteristics of the real thing as FSX allows, even though we know it is still a simulation.

I would like to add here the piece quoted from that last review which includes a quote ffrom the CS support.....

"An admin on the Captain Sim message board put it this way.... "But we keep receiving comments pointing some differences between the real B727 aircraft and our product. Please be reasonable, it is not the real B727, it is just a software game!" PMDG and Level-D don't take that attitude so if you want a real attempt at an accurate flying simulation go to them instead.....

....and that is what we do, and wait and hope for the Dreamfleet.


Unreal ,they don't even bother to try, as the others do, and succeed for the most part.

Hi John, thanks Nathan,

I wasn't aware of that other review, you should think indeed that he should get a part of there profit or something. But everybode has his right of his own opinian. I don't buy it, just for the reason they give themself as you quoted, lack of respect for the costumers

Nice catch Ralf, wish I had a home build cockpit like that. I'm planning on starting to build a home build cockpit but don't know yet for which airplane

The TITAN repaint is for the FS9 Dreamfleet version only. I will update it when the FSX version comes out.

[John Khan]

AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHH.

The more I read here, the more I think of going back to FS9!!

You only have to look at the "Hot Files" for the year, or for the last month, on Avsim.com and Flightsim.com to see how many are still showing for FS9. and getting back the beloved RFP, Dreamfleet, Aeroworx B200 King Air and especially seeing the 743 on the home page........damn.

There ae great things in FSX, - such as the ORBX and other sceneries for Aus., but still......

John

[PKlijnstra]

I understand your frustration John, but why not use both FSX and FS9?

I use FSX for the B744 and B763 flights and FS9 for the other aircraft I fly. They work along side each other and more and more add ons will come out for FSX.

BTW I'm still finding out if I should buy the FSX version of the MD-11 or the version for both flightsims.
