SP1 For iFly 747-400 Now Released

Featured Replies

I'm flying with it right now, approaching T/D after an 8 hour flight and my free memory is 1.55GB. I took off with 1.84GB.

 

I tried the 747 in YSSY, KLAX and KSEA (with airport addons), same thing. Your VAS issue is coming from somewhere else. Regarding performance, i can confirm that the 777 from PMDG has much better performance. I don't get serious issues, but it's noticeable how much slower the 747 is.

Hi all, thanks for your replies.

 

 

I am using P3d v3 and the tests I have done so far were confined to Aerosoft EGLL and default LOWI, both with FTX Global enabled. In both cases the VAS climbed slowly but steadily.

 

 

Like others here I too am seeing slightly worse starting VAS and lower frames than the PMDG 777 with like for like scenery. I am no expert but I do understand concerns relating to VAS and am happy overall with the compromises made to get a reasonable performance with a range of add-ons.

 

 

My worry here is not so much the level of VAS, more that VAS levels gradually increase with this aircraft but not others.
