Nice! I also didn´t know that they´re developing it but here it is. It seems that the currently sell the exterior model only and the rest will come later.

I quite like captainsim products despite the criticisms they often get.But I have to say I'm not keen on this buy the exterior then the interior etc. But I suppose thats their thing.It's just nice to get a complete package.Tom

Why not read some useful tips and tricks - http://forum.avsim.n...22#entry1965722

Funny the beginning of the video says 707.I wonder if they will come out with the other models. I really just want to fly the 777-200LRF

They will. They will release the 777-200, the 777-300 and the 777F as a package like they did with the 757.I also like their 757 very much but I can´t fly it because of the weakess on my system. 3 GHZ aren´t enough...

Very nice external model. But based on my previous experience with CS products... no thanks.
You'll be 'shooting yourself in the foot'. I too had several 'bad' experiences with Captain Sim. However, I am now purchasing their products again. Their customer service has COMPLETELY been turned around. I've been very impressed.Just ask those who know me... I've done a lot of past moaning about Captain Sim. I'm now quite happy to praise them! Seriously!

Windows 10 (x64) - X-Plane 11 - M/B: Asus ROG Maximus IX Hero - CPU: i7 7700k (@5.0GHz) - RAM: 32Gb Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 @ 3200MHz - Video: GTX1080ti - Cooling: Custom water loop (EK 140 Revo D5 pump/res combo, EK EVO CPU block, EK XE360 Rad)

While the airplane looks nice, it has the default 747 VC and panel...no thanks. From looking at the product page, it doesn't seem as if they're going to model any systems. Seems like you could save 10 Euro and just get a freeware 777 model.

For now, it is this way. They initially release the exterior, and then later when the interior, vc, systems, and FDE are ready, they release them. That is what they did with the B-52. This external model release is for all the screenshot/video makers to have some fun while the complete package is still in development.

Wow, surprising thing since the PMDG announcement is already there since some time. Although a possible PMDG one may come with some more system details, the CS one seems to arrive "soon" (in the true meaning of soon, not that other one Big%20Grin.gif which got stressed for 2 years or so).Interesting thing to watch in my eyes and really a niche to fill since all current 777 in FSX are either very lite or somehow very outdated.Just wondering, can't find anything about the placement in the market. Will this thing be a "Pro" or a "Fun" line product? Where did you guys get the information about the external only start?The forum section is called 777 Captain, so it sounds like a full detail thing like the 707 for example.

I will likely wait for the PMDG version, but I would really like to see Captain Sim get the pressurization system and the FDE right, and it would be really nice if it comes with first officer callouts and crew interactions.

This is how they released the 757.... in blocks is what they called it. It took months and months to get each piece. Stupid way of doing things. No thanks CS.

I don't understand what the issue is here, if you want the complete product just wait until it is finished to purchase?

Shane Gavin

CS has changed, they don't flat out insult you any more. But any bug you report they still think is your fault.Over a year and I still can't select winglets on my 727 freighter at all. Not in the aircraft.fg line or in the ACE configuration.Maybe in a few years I will? Some customer support!
