January 23, 200620 yr I usually prefer planes without VCs (exept from the Ariane VCe) because on my system VCs usually have a severe impact on performance. Now one could say, if you don't loke 3D cockpits, then just fly from the 2d panel. But it's not that easy, because VCs definitely have an impact also on the perfomance in 2d mode. For instance, when I fly the PMDG 737Ng or the LDS 767 "VC Models" in 2D mode I'll get approx. 20 - 25 % less performance, than flying the PMDG or LDS "Non VC modells" in 2D mode. So VCs have an impact on performance, even when they are not used. This fact was also discussed here in the forum a couple of years ago.WolfgangMy raw sys specsP4 2.4 Ghz1024 MB DDR SDRAMATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128 MBWin XP Pro

January 23, 200620 yr Author For me, like in a previous post: 1) Airliners--- absolutely no VC. I prefer to pop up the subpanels as I can get to them much easier and do what I need to do. Also, with the workload, the 2d just works better for me. 2) GA --- Guess what? I never fly WITHOUT the VC. Less complex cockpit, smaller plane, the VC just gives a better feel of flying that sort of aircraft. I really want both available, and really like the manufacturers who provide the option in their models. Mike
