August 14, 20214 yr By definition, PMDG. iFly comes close. Their 737 and 747 are very good (and are now the best available for FS9 and FSX) but PMDG are indeed better. Personally, I never simulate abnormal ops, so I could have done fine with iFly. However, I never liked how did they handle the accelerated simulation rates and for P3D I went PMDG instead.

IFly would likely do well for me. I only have an hour or two for sim time a week so airliners aren't a good fit unless I just do hub and spoke hops like Harrisburg to Charlotte or another hub out of my local KMDT.
August 15, 20214 yr I feel like PMDG has more people making livery's also. the ifly is way more limited. Especially on newer paint schemes 5800X3D, 4090FE, 64GB DDR4 3600C16, Gigabyte X570S MB, EVO 970 M.2's, Alienware 3821DW and 2 22" monitors, Corsair RM1000x PSU, 360MM MSI MEG, MFG Crosswind, T16000M Stick, Boeing TCA Yoke/Throttle, Skalarki MCDU and FCU, Logitech Radio Panel/Switch Panel, Spad.Next
August 16, 20214 yr Hi, Having owned the NGX in FSXSE,P3D,i was more than happy with the flight dymanics of the Aircraft,so i took the plunge a few weeks back and purchased the 737 NGXu,missed the sale,but never mind,i like to use the auto land feature of the planes on a regular basis and to my surprise and disappointment the autoland on the NGXu is terrible compered to the previous NGX,it is the worse on the market of payware aircraft,light years behind the QW787 and the Aerosoft Airbus range,just wish they had not have messed around with it and kept it the same as the old NGX,that is much better than the new NGXu.

Gary Jones. If authenticity is PMDGs goal then could it be it was Boeing who messed up the real plane's autoloader between grounding and return to service?
