Whys this under panels!!!! It should be under original aircraft

This will go down as one of the greatest flight simulation add-ons of all time. RFP did more for me in terms of learning aircrft systems, and what you don't get to experience in the glass cockpit world, than you could imagine. Do yourself a favor, download this masterpiece, read the manual, have at least one flight where you program the INS and handle the fuel and other systems by hand. If you do this, you will have a greater appreciation for the 747 and modern heavies in general. The next time you jump in your PDMG 747, you will have a much deeper feeling of understanding of what goes on in the background automatically. It just gives you a whole better perspective on heavies. Let's hope the reason they are giving this away is because they are working on a new version:Ready for Pushback XRH

To the RFP Gods... Thank You!:-)

I am going to feel like an idiot for asking this but . . . I cannot find any comparison charts anywhere, including the RFP site. What exactly is the difference between RFP v2 and the payware VIP edition?Also another question:I found the loaders. The links are broken.Is there an alternative location to attain these files? I got the AC and the livery packs just fine but in the forum when I click for the loaders, etc, all I get is "page can't be displayed"

THe VIP edition was essentially a beta version of what might have been RFPv3. It was never completed.As noted above, the utilites are available here:http://41686.rapidforum.com/Ed GreenKCLT

Will we see a RFP 747-200 X?RH

Robbie, that's a question that currently has no answer. My own thinking is probably not anytime soon.Remember, not everyone is "sold" on FSX at this point, even if they do have it. Ed GreenKCLT

Same place i went before, but the links are working now. Probably like my forum is -- providor was down for nightly update at the time I was trying.Thank you. So there technically is no VIP edition then? That's where I got confused LOL. That's okay -- RFP v2 was a great birthday present for celebrating 32 :-)
