FS9 747-400F Upgrades

[level7 175]

Please note: Common 747-400 family features such as system and display updates / additions and sounds contained in this product will automatically be updated in your base 747-400 Queen of the Skies installation to reflect the changes.

on the site it notes that the 747-400F upgrade includes the above. can someone elaborate what system and display updates / additions have been made? i'm wondering if it is worthwhile to get the cargo model.thanks,simon tam

You do know the FS9 is no longer a supported platform? http://forum.avsim.net/topic/273567-pmdgs-position-on-fs2004-development-21jan10/

i recently got 747-400 for FS9. it does not include the cargo model which is an extra $29.99 on the PMDG site.In the description of the cargo model there was the note that i copied shown above about improvements to the base passenger model as well. i was wondering what specifically they are.thankssimon tam

Simon,The biggest benefit of the -400F upgrade is the addition of engine variant support. The freighter update will add custom Sound/Engine instrumentation to the PAX -400 version.I found it to be well worth the money by creating a more complete 744 model for FS9. Cheers,
