February 27, 201214 yr Link to the Avsim review of this aircraft :http://www.avsim.com/pages/0212/Wilco/737.htmlIn my opinion I think it's a fairly balanced and fair review.I don't know what it is with this aircraft, but I quite like it even though it was released with a few flaws. :( In some respects it's like flying the Level-D 767 (no critisim of this aircraft, it's just getting a bit dated), you just keep going back to it.Coupled with the FS2Crew addon it's not a bad overall package.Regards Dave
February 27, 201214 yr True and fully agreed. Very good review that is and the author took his time to come to a conclusion. I'd say it's very helpful if someone is interested in a 737 Classic and wants to know about the ups and downs, applying his own preferences then.I like the plane and the fact that it's there (plus FS2Crew) in FSX. Bit on the pricey side maybe.
April 2, 201214 yr I have Wilco 727PIC and their original airbuses but I won't be 'upgrading' to their 'evoluition' packages. The reviews I have read on the 737 Evolution have been less than stellar and reviews of their airbus evolution packages have been even worse. Furthermore, to be brutallyhonest I feel uncomfortable with a marketing srategy which seems to rely upon customers continually paying high prices to 'upgrade' to products with a few minor 'improvements' but which which remain buggy have dated vusuals and zero support.. The bar has been raised now by developers such as PMDG and Flightsim Labs. Accordingly I' m happy to let go of the 737 classic if PMDG don't develop one, and I'll buy their PMDG 777, reworked 747 and the Flightsiom lab Airbuses when thay are released in Q4 this year. I am no longer a Wilco customer and I won't return to them unless I see some radical changes in the company. wingsoffire
April 8, 201214 yr Im my opinion, the old PIC 737 had a better 3D cocpit, in evo, the armrests make proper use of the radiostack difficult, and in ex. the Speed knots/mach selector are inoperativ, so if you wish to use it, you have to switch to 2D panel... And when you turn (in 3D cocpit) the speed/heading/altimtude buttons, the numbers move way to slow, so slow that it is annoying. Now that i've spent the money on PIC EVOLUTION, i hope there will be more updates to come.. Otherwise, i will seriously consider to never ever buy Wilco addons any more. I have the most of them. Can mention, that i was dissapointed with Airbus Series Evolution too. So In my opinion, prices of this "updated" products are WAY too high! Amund Brakstad
