Looks real good.  Screenies could use some more AA though... but I think that's the nature of XP with HDR.

Wow, day 1 buy for me.....love the old birds.

Defo defo getting this one...it looks fantastic......wow!

Have been watching this bird since it was announced and really looking forward to it.  Used to load MD-80's and power them back for NWA.  Will be good to have a nice model in X-Plane.

FMC Progress Update!
