No idea what y'all doing... in my case the 787 flies like she's supposed to, No major flaws like the ones reported here.

Perhaps it runs better since your on Windows 3.11

I am still not convinced by the answers given in regard of the "jump to" function. That's why I ask again:

- does this "jump to" feature work with external ATC software such as ProATC/X or if not, is there an easy workaround (Like creating a flightplan in ProATC/X that actually does not contain the waypoints intended to be skipped)?

- does this "jump to" feature get along with current weather addons like ActiveSky? Do the weather addons get along with it?

Thanks for clarification and any hints.

Regards,

Can’t help you with Pro ATC but if you jump to a waypoint further ahead I’m fairly sure that active sky will just re-download the weather at the point you jump to, so don’t be surprised if you see a big shift in the weather that would be very gradual over a real time flight.

When you jump to another waypoint, you will also have to go into ProATC/X and go to the Menu and make a request to ATC to go directly to [the next waypoint in the list of waypoints] just like you would do if you missed a waypoint.

Folks,

 

What is the verdict for the plane? My understanding is that it's similar to AS Bus in terms of functionality

I dont have AS but i think you are on track.

At least it is the latest from Boeing and we should support the developers. 

Thanks

Personally, I’ve shelved it until they issue another patch. Wish I had just refunded it when I had the chance.

The verdict on this plane seems to be wide and varied depending on the simmer's experience (as expected).

Here is a link to a post I did replying to a fellow simmer having issues with the plane.  As you'll note, I've been fortunate in that I've not experienced the issues others have reported (major issues anyway).

Note the part that the best thing about this plane when deciding whether to purchase is that Flight1 is the vendor....and we know what that means. :)

 

I hope their version 1.2 drops very soon.

If you mean the new Aerosoft Airbus Pro 318/319 (and forthcoming 320+321 expansion), then the functionality of the Aerosoft 'Bus is greater than that of the QW 787. But having said that, I do think both of them are two of the better airliner add-ons we've got at the moment.

Thank you, folks...it seems like there is 50-50 split in opinions, so I'd rather wait for v1.2 and then make a decision (a positive one I hope). I used to own QW757 and I was pretty happy with it.

Seems like the latest news on the update was just a marketing stunt to plug in the RealLight, I was hoping they were close. 

I am gonna try my first passenger flight tonight from KLAX to ENGM with my new 787-8 fueled from factory at KPAE with about 100tons. Had a Virgin flight down to Los Angeles with reporter and now i am goeing to pick up passengers as NAX7084. 

After a rather mixed start things are better but comming from 747-400 and a A 319 its a little step down in sim but 2 step forward in aviation history. 

Btw. Replay version 4.0 works pretty good with 787.

Thanks Michael Moe

Overall a pleasant flight until ADOPI3M star was insight. During the descent a climb of 8000 feet and overspeed was initiated. Luckly i was able to recover. 

Some other small bugs that hopefully will be issued along the road. 

Other than that its a great product for the buck i would say. 

Thanks Michael Moe

You better believe that! 3.11 and the WQ 787 is a perfect match. Why should I update? 😛
