Featured Replies

H all, I am going to purchase a Boeing 757 for FSX this afternoon! I want to know the pros and cons of the CS 757 and the QW 757. I have the CS 767 and I really like it! I want to know which one has the most realistic FDE.All feedback welcomeAaron G.

I have both.Much as I love the crisp textures of the CS version, the QW 757 is by far, way the better addon. Although considered light in systems depth compared to say the PMDG737NG, what systems are simulated are OUTSTANDING!The QW support is also nothing short of OUTSTANDING!EDIT: The sounds are also brilliant by the way!

Is the QW FDE is realistic?Aaron G.

I agree with Dougal, and for exactly the same reasons. While I was flying it, I found the QW 757 a much more pleasant experience. The systems were deep enough for me (getting back into airliners after a break of several years), and it looks pretty good. The CS version looks great, but I could never come to terms with flying it, and I found their documentation a bit hard to get through. QualityWings does have great support, too.

Okay, but not too many people visit that forum unless they have an issue. That's why I recommended it as you'll see what problems others encountered with this aircraft. I think the latest version is very well done.Best regards,Jim
Is the QW FDE is realistic?Aaron G.
Sorry Aaron, but not being a 757 pilot, i can't really answer that.All I can tell you about the FDE is that it FEELS better than my CS version. I do still fly the CS version from time to time as I LOVE the visuals. If it's visuals that floats your boat, then the CS version WILL NOT disappoint you.If its overall quality and FDE that does it, then I'd say the QW version WILL NOT disappoint you;-)

Go have fun with it Aaron.You won't regret the purchase. Even if you do get any problems, the QW team are usually super fast at responding to questions on their support forum.EDIT: Hey Ernie, I'll claim commission later :(
