I remember there was some buzz when it came out, and, aside from some regrettable graphics here and there, it remains a very nice airplane. Anyone else flying it? Just curious.

Inside the VC the graphics are not sharp around the gauges. It was bad enough I had to get used to them, but I'm glad I did. Did they ever have a forum, because I don't think there's one now. I love the sounds in the cockpit. I like the retro planes myself. Oh, and it turns every airport into a AES-equipped one, sorta. All sorts of carts, caterers, baggage, etc. Very nice and adds to the fun factor.

Thank's Tim, sounds really great I really have to get this one. :(

I have heard about this bird and I considered buying it quite a while ago. I never did in the end, simply because you can't save its panel state. I once wrote them an email asking them if such a thing will be implemented and they said they are working on it. Never heard anything of them ever again, so I have no idea when it'll come (if it will ever come...). But yes, if I could save the panel state, I'd probably buy it although I wouldn't know where I'd fly it. It's only operated in the US and Venezuela... Oh well. I always wanted to fly more in South America.

Yup, I fly it fairly often....love the older jets, as it takes me back to when I flew on them during the 60s for family vacations over spring break (KBWI-KMIA - BWI was Friendship Airport in those days). Eastern Airlines was the airline of choice, and most often it was a B727 or DC-9...great planes, and a superior airline at the time!(I love the Capt. Sim FSX versions of the B727 and most recently their B707, too! Their FS9 versions are good, but their FSX versions are awesome!)
