August 13, 201213 yr Well, PC Aviator's Deal of the Day includes Wilco's 777 for only USD 15. http://www.pcaviator...productid=18274 How good is it, considering the price for this week? Specially the FS9 version. PS: I'm not sure if this should be here or at the Bargain Hunter's Shack.

August 13, 201213 yr If you need a relatively nice 777 for FS9, go for the old good PSS one. Leave the Wilco alone. 15 USD can be spent much better.
August 13, 201213 yr Author 15 USD can be spent much better. Those words mean a lot, Rafal, thank you very much. I guess the next step is merging it with Posky, isn't it?

August 13, 201213 yr I guess the next step is merging it with Posky, isn't it? SInce 2010 I have been flying only in virtual cockpits, so I lost interest in merging aircraft. That's why PSS 777 is a VC aircraft for me, especially after the freely offered VC textures lift-up available in some libraries. But if you fly 2D and care about your plane's external visuals very much, then you can merge, as the Posky models l-o-o-k great (way better that the original PSS). There is even a VC merge possible, as Posky offers its own VC model which can partially be integrated with PSS gauges, but the VC clickability is not full, which is a no-go for me. Keep in mind good merges are not easy (I remember it from the times I did some for myself), but if you search the Forum, you will find more than a few threads about it. And I don't know if you're still on a 4:3 monitor but, as far as I know, there is officially no widescreen version of the PSS panel, so take it into consideration as well.
