Yes. If installed already the 800/900 upgrades common files in the 600/700, so installing the 600/700 later retros the 800/900.I don't have the 747 series but I believe a reinstall is also required.Uninstall the 800/900 at least. Install the 600/700 followed by the 800/900. Go to the Aerosoft.com site FAQ patch section and get the CD patch used when you have both products. Also read the FAQ that pertains to a batch file that must be run when you install a new texture set and both the 600/700 and 800/900 are installed. I would think the CD patch to download would accommodate things. I used the CD version of the 600/700 as well and ordered both at the same time.

I don't see how this could be possible as the 737-800/900 is an add-on to the 600/700 and requires that the 600/700 already be purchased and installed.If you have the 800/900 it would imply that you already own the 600/700.C McCarthy

There is one for the 600/700 but not one for the 800/900.I dont think i need the 600/700 for other than that reason.Air Canada historically only flew the 737-200 , i dont think i can use the repaint from the 600/700 on the 800/900 , might as well save $40.00Pete

Didn't realize the boxed version was a stand-alone product, that would explain it.C McCarthy
