You seem to have an interest in airline ops and flying, but if you have any broader interest, the RealAir Duke is the best GA add-on I feel I've ever installed and worth every penny. It works great in FSX and as a high performance twin can handle most flights in the 100-500 mile range. I love flying it between city pairs such as London-Zurich, or Paris-Frankfurt, or Los Angeles-San Francisco. I haven't got it, but I suspect Eaglesoft's new version of the Citation X might be worthwhile if you like being immersed in systems while flying at Mach .9+. My general experience with Eaglesoft is if they are going to do a project, they are going to do it as best as they can.Regards,John

Level-D 767 is my all-time favorite. A few updates and mods in the members download area make the sim most unforgettable.Regards,Robert

As far as I know the Level-D 767 is download only. Level-D is due to release their long-awaited 757 which will be a "must have." They have been working on it for a few years... the 767 was released in July of '06 so my gut feeling is they will release the 757 by the end of the year, I could be wrong though. Make sure to visit their forum to get latest patch and upgrade info (pinned topic), simple to do just follow the instructions.PMDG 747, MD-11 and their new JS41 are all excellent aircraft.All run extremely well on Vista64 and if you can afford it I would not hesitate to buy them all.Best,Robert

I'd also suggest the MD-11. It's very easy to deal with, especially if you use the full automatics. I prefer it to the same company's 747, which is heavier on framerates. The LDS 767 is also good, but slightly more dated. Of course, the world awaits a comparable Airbus product. I was really hoping that the Airsimmer A320 would be available by Xmas, but that looks increasingly unlikely. And it's the FS9 one that will be released first in any case. Then perhaps we'll see a decent A330 and A340. Who knows..Ian

The MD-11 imho is the best airline release for FSX. Absolutely love it. I also own the Captain Sim 767, PDMG 747, PMDG BAE and the Ariane 737 900ER. I keep hearing the Real Air Duke is fantastic. I may pick this addon up this weekend.

Ariane at least in my opinion is not quite there yet. They are close. Their activation process has been interesting for some even though I recently re-activated mine in less than 12 hours. They have a VERY nice aircraft but you can't get navigraph updates for it yet. The liveries are all payware so you have to spend some money just to add that alaskan airline skin you always wanted. The aircraft is flyable from the VC and out of all the payware airlines I own, I actually get the best VC performance with the Ariane. But....The little things that PMDG did like being able to get liveries for free and they are all packaged in an installer. Their FMC is wonderfull where you can initiate refueling and pushback. I have the latest navigraph updates installed so all my SIDS and stars are updated. The systems modelling is fantastic. The model comes with wingflex and the aircraft flies like one would expect(I am not a real world pilot). They added a bunch of little things that really make the MD-11 worth the money.
