December 29, 201114 yr Hi,I am a new convert to PMDG and I now wonder why it took so many years to do it.After diving in at Xmas and getting the JetStream 4100, I was so impressed, I ended up ordering the boxed 747-400X two days later.Already an owner of the Level-D 767, I had a benchmark to compare PMDG to. It seems, just not with the aircraft, but the support and official feedback, etc. has already put PMDG at the top of my list.So thanks to the guys at PMDG for some quality payware. Now I understand why products like yours cost more then many competitors, but they are clearly worth every penny. I see a long term fun experience with excellent return on the investment.I am already hankering after the MD-11 X but the 737 NGX does have it's attractions. Imagine I will not post much here as I am not a hard-core simmer, but I will be reading through the posts and trying to keep up to date on things.Regards Hugh Boyle - Amateur flight-simmer since 1989 and still learning.

December 29, 201114 yr Simply put, the 737NGX will blow you away. Finest plane I've ever owned. BTW, nice hardware!!Oh, and welcome to the forum. Jack Urie
December 29, 201114 yr Just now?!!, every plane that PMDG made is superbe. you missed a lot!!Anyway the NGX is the ultimate add-on Matias SorcinelliCHECK MY CHANNEL!!! - http://www.youtube.com/user/masneoquil
December 29, 201114 yr I would go for the MD11. Almost everybody on this forum might likely recommend the 737 but if you really want something different the Md11 should be your choice. Not as shiny but still excellent. :( Roland Schmalzl
December 30, 201114 yr Author I would go for the MD11. Almost everybody on this forum might likely recommend the 737 but if you really want something different the Md11 should be your choice. Not as shiny but still excellent. :(I understand that the 737NGX requires a powerful setup to run maxed out, but is it a resource hog compared to the MD-11 X, such to the point that will affect performance a lot, considering my hardware?

December 30, 201114 yr With your hardware, you're going to run the NGX and MD-11 just fine. Lukas "TIN TIN -=9th Shrek=-" Mathijsen
December 30, 201114 yr I have both the MD11 and the 737 and I can't decide which is better. My suggestion: get both! Manfred G. Ships are cooler that you think.
December 30, 201114 yr Anyway the NGX is the ultimate add-onYeah, I´m flying it for several day now and I still disceover new things in it! Truly the best one I´ve ever bought! :smile:The only bad thing about the NGX is that if you get used to that standard, you can hardly fly any other addon. Everything else looks so poor against the NGX. Best regards, Steffen Fight time: NGX 737-700: 37,0h; -800: 47,2h
