Sure? I can't see an announcement on the main page and the shop prices for e. g. the 707 are in the normal ranges too (29.99 for the base pack).The currently promoted CS 777 is the exterior model only, having 9.99€ as a standard price.So if there is a sale, it's upcoming. :(

Yes on July 5th. That's what it said in the email I got.

You could get their 777, which normally retails at nine..., oh, that doesn't really work does it? :( Joking aside, their FSX B-52, 707, 757 C-130 and 727 are all well worth picking up for 9.99.Al

Seems like they are reacting to some wishes then. Nice touch.
I was actually going to buy the 707 yesterday but then I couldn't make up my mind. The a2a stratocruiser+cots or 707 ?Good I didn't buy the 707 yet. I will prob end up getting both ! Looks like i can't resist.

Yeah, I'll be getting the B-52 and the 707 :)Not sure what else to get though. Is the C-130 any good?

Flying the 707 right now which is a lovely bird. Hope their 777 is done with the same care.

Yeah great. JUST after I bought the 707 2 days ago.

I know how you feel Jack, this type of scenario has happened to me at least twice that I can recall.

I'm actually thinking about picking up the 757 since I have the C-130 and 727 package already. At 9.99 its hard to beat, but at the same time with the NGX probably not too far off in the distance and the LDS 757 being worked on (who knows how much longer it will be), i'm not sure how much I would actually use the Capt Sim 757. Plus I am not sure if I am ready to scour their forum to get all the recommended user tweaks for the 757 like I had to do for the 727.

Just a quick question, can you select just a 767-300 vc model without the full passenger cabin? I can see fps taking a nose dive....Thanks,Todd

If one ignores the lack of undercarriage, it's actually quite a nice landing.

Definitely yes.
Is the C-130 as good as it was in FS2004? Looks like with some others,I've been caught out after paying the original asking price for the 707Captain.And is the 767-300 as good as the LDS version as I prefer 2D? Or does the B-52 come complete with working interior,i.e panel,etc,etc?

I think I don't have a single one on the 757 except for another sound set which I bought later. But from the experience then, it wasn't really necessary.But you are right, the 727 is a base pack indeed. Throw in the FDE mod, something for the instruments, the INS and that ship rocks. Additional docs from Avsim then give you a complete and spot on package following the numbers.

Yes, the 767 has a cabin check/uncheck option in the ACE.

Too many questions limit exceeded. LOL.gifMore seriously, the CS130 still is a fine thing and the price will also include all additional packs when the sales have started. I got her on the last sale and was amazed how good the old thing looks. I don't know the FS2004 version though, but the FSX one still is nice to look at, only the newer 3D gauge planes exceed the pleasure there. Since there isn't much available when you want to go cargo + STOL in those sizes, the CS C130 stays a tip in my eyes.But she seems to have some trouble with the sounds on some systems.I'd say that the LD 767 is more accurate on the systems than the CS one, while the CS optics really please the eyes and you don't have to miss much on the details itself, if anything. One thing to mention would be the missing fuel dump feature though.I found myself more often in the CS one later, leading to abandoning the LD ship. I'm flying her VC only, but there is a 2D panel too.I'd say that for those 9.99 she's worth a try. If you like her, the optional packs give you some more variants and the exp. pack price will remain at 9.99 even outside of sales actions. So no hurry then.Be aware that older systems see a performance hit with the newer CS 767 in relationship to the LD 767. The disabled cabin gives you back some fps numbers though.The B-52 is a blast and latest tech. I've just realized that quite some work there was done by Milviz and you will really like those 8x engine instruments running then. Expect very latest gauge techs there, same on the optics of the whole plane.There is some more accurate FDE available in the forums and the official CS 1.1 update may arrive soon, maybe already including those FDE tweaks.Remember that the B-52 is a Fun Line product, so don't expect too much system detail, although quite some guys were complaining about too much depth on especially the fuel system.I like her and have no trouble with operation when sticking a bit to the manuals on the first few attempts.
