July 2, 20169 yr Hi Folks - I know i read something about this a while back but can't remember where. Seeing that the 787 is on sale for $17 at the X-Aviation store, I was thinking about picking it up. I am still mostly FSX and P3D so I don't have much for X-Plane, but can anyone recommend this plane? Also, I can't quite tell if there is an FMC included (even if it is a light version like the one for the Aerosim model for fsx) since it refers to the X-FMC addon which I would not want to purchase just for this aircraft. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Pete Pete Solov - Lake in the Hills 3CK and Schaumburg Regional 06CProud AOPA Member - PPL 2001Real World Piper Cherokee Pilot
July 2, 20169 yr I have this back in my hangar somewhere. Personally, I was disappointed. The FMC is the standard X-Plane FMC, which, while it will work, is not very realistic. Overall, I think you might want to save your money to apply to something better. John John Wingold

July 2, 20169 yr The 787 is one of Ramzess (Flight Factor) earlier models. By today's standards I'd have to say it falls far short of the top drawer airliners we're now getting in X-Plane. It's nowhere near the FF 767, IXEG 737, or even the older FF 757. It's more like airliners in X-Plane used to be......... :smile: Bill 😎FS2024 • Currently in 'GA mode' : A2A Comanche 2024 & Aerostar • Black Square C208, Bonanzas, Barons, TBM850, Dukes • COWS DA40 & DA42 • FSW Legacy, C24R Sierra & C414 • Echo Falco F8L • FFX HJET, Visionjet and P180 2024 • Got Friends A32 Vixxen • FSReborn Sirius TL3000, Sting S4 and Piper M500 • Flyboy Rans S6S • Skyward DA50RG • SWS Zenith CH701, RV-8, RV-10, RV-14, PC12 • Milviz C310R • Air Foil Labs Bristell B23 TrackIR • BeyondATC • PMS GTN Payware • RealTurb • Axis & Ohs • FS Realistic Pro9800X3D • RTX 3080 • 64GB DDR5-6000NPPL licence holder in the UK
