TFDi Design - PACX & 717

Recommended Posts

This is a bargain. Too bad P3D is no longer my primary sim.


A pilot is always learning and I LOVE to learn.

PACX is 30% off

717 is 50% off

via Orbx

https://orbxdirect.com/partner/tfdi-design

Sale ends in roughly 4 days, 19 hours. Definitely picking up that 717 and probably PACX as well.

Note there's only P3Dv4 support available for the B717. The v5 version is in beta but not released yet.

Is this bird full study level with failures etc like PMDG/FSLabs?

I made a video in two parts (ESSA to ENBR). I had also made the script for B717/MCE.

The stutter was due to the video capture and editing software...

If you are familiar with the MD11 you will not be disappointed with the procedures.

Also, if you buy from Orbx, you don’t get access to the v5 beta.

Purchased. With this, the Aerosoft A32x Pro and the Q400, I'll need a lot of days off just to enjoy them.

Anyone still using FSX and this aircraft know how bad the VAS hit is on windows 7? Could I successfully fly from Orbx KSBA to Flightbeam KSFO without a PC meltdown?😀

Thanks for your help!

I'm having a problem with using this aircraft after purchase and download from ORBX. It will not activate properly and so far TFDi hasn't been much help. Anyone else have this issue?

Just checked out the 717...the interior textures look pretty bland for that price tag, gotta pass on that one.

The 717 is a steal at that price tag.

Absolute steal.
