I still think it's the best 757 that's been done thusfar for FS. QW's stuff got significantly more complex with their BAe-146/Avro RJ product too - I hope they revisit the 757 and redo it up to that standard some day.

 

I agree with this.

 

Doubt that will happen with their 787 and 737 both being current projects.

They've hinted at considering a clean sheet 757v2 before on their own forums. Wouldn't be too surprised if that's announced in a year or two (since their 787 and 737 will take time). 

i too learned in the qw 757,then moved up to pmdg products, then went back and bought the 146 collection,i have been pleased with most of my purchases, and use aerosoft for the airbus, and fly them all now

Agreed, Brett.  You can't go wrong with any of them and all should be in everyone's hangar.

I kinda wanted this to be a domestic companion to a 737/A320, the VC in this 757 looked very good and the "light" FMS wouldn't be a problem if not for the inaccuracy AP and low-precision programming, confirmed by some posters. It is "light" but it is veeeeeerrryyyyy difficult to fly, because you have to learn to fly this in a certain way to compensate for the inaccurate/unprecise AP functionality.

I did few 757 flights in the past few days, and... oh boy :-(  

- Enough, today I'm back to my NGX, just reached my crz alt FDFW-KDEN. Beautiful and smooth, sharp autopilot, sharp flying. Awesome fun.

 

The CS is probably better as far as programming goes, but that VC... it just doesn't have that 757 feel, I can't convince myself I am flying a 757. Have to give up on the 757 simulation.
