Sky Simulations DC-9 under Win7?

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

has anybody experiences with Sky Simulations' DC-9 for FS2004 under Win7, especially with a late copy of Win7 including Internet Explorer 11?

 

I can't find any specification about supported operating systems neither at Simmarket nor at Sky Simulations' website.

 

Furthermore, I'm interested in your experiences with this plane in common.

 

Thank you very much in advance

and best regards,

Harald

Hmm... The Coolsky DC-9 is way better if you want to buy a DC-9 addon.

Oops... you want one for FS9... Then the Sky Simulation one is your only choice. I guess if it does not run well, simMarket can get you a refund.

Hello Herald,

 

I did use the Sky Simulations DC-9 on my last PC with Windows 7.  It worked great.

 

As for the add-on in general, I enjoyed it.  I shelved it after the release of the Coolsky DC-9 because of it's more accurate system simulation (but the Sky Sim was fantastic I thought).  The flight dynamics are believable and for an FS9 DC-9, it's the best representation.  Personally I feel the price is a bit too steep but if you're trying to scratch a DC-9 itch, I'd go for it.

Hi,

 

I have two other questions which I found answered inconsistently or not at all so far in many threads about DC-9s and particularly the SkySim model.

1. Did DC-9s have Inertial Navigation Systems? Some say yes, some say no...

2. How about the flight dynamics of SkySims DC-9. Zach says they are believable but others report problems handling it for instance here.

 

Thanks for your opinion and best regards

Harald
