February 18, 20224 yr I would really luv to see a Boeing 727-100, followed by a Boeing 727-200. These jets were big in the 70's and 80's. When I was on FSX Captain Sim made a pretty nice 727 model. I am sure this would attract a lot of simmers who have been doing this for a while, as well as somew of the newcomers. 10700kf, 3080 nividia, 32gbs 3400mhz, 1,000 watts power, M.2 DVMe !tb, boot, 1tb 7200rpm, storage, windows 10 home
February 19, 20224 yr Yes please! I was fortunate enough to fly on a Singapore Airlines 727 back in the 80s. Edited February 19, 20224 yr by Paul K Surely not everybody was kung fu fighting. https://rationalwiki.org
February 19, 20224 yr There's a group working on one. There was a rumor that they'd stopped development, but they came out recently and denied the rumor. I can't remember what the group's name is, but I hope they're successful. I'd love a good '27 to fly around in. Ryzen 7 7800X3D/B650 X AX | 5090 | 32gig | Win10 | Pimax Crystal Light
February 19, 20224 yr An aircraft that you have to actually pilot? The horror! lol Think of the moaning that it doesn't have a one button AP to do everything for them. 😉 i7-13700KF, 32gb DDR4 3200, RTX 4080, Win 11, MSFS 2024
February 19, 20224 yr 727-200 / 200 adv would be great. Also a 737-200 adv. Milviz had a great one for FSX. AMD Ryzen R9 9950X3D | Asus Astral RTX 5080 OC | 32 GB DDR5 6000 CL30 | 3440x1440 G-Sync | Logitech Pro Throttles Rudder Yoke Panels | Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS | TrackIR 5 | Oculus Rift S

February 19, 20224 yr Commercial Member 707 Paul Grubich 2017 - Professional texture artist painting virtual aircraft I love. Be sure to check out my aged cockpits for the A2A B-377, B-17 and Connie at Flightsim.com and Avsim library
February 19, 20224 yr This would be great. Only thing that occurs to me with older aircraft is how we get around navigation without the FMC? In all previous FS iterations the autopilot simply followed your flightplan once you hit "Nav", anything with a FMC was the cherry on the cake. I guess we could just chase down the aerial lollipops, the other option is having to actually tune in VOR's as we go and dead reckoning over water, but I can't see the joypad/arcade players wanting any truck with that.

February 20, 20224 yr Used to fly as crew on the B727. A rocket ship ! They are a classic. But you will need to brush up on VOR, ILS and Inertial Navigation systems, like waiting at the gate for the inertial to align. Bring it on!!

February 20, 20224 yr +1 Even I am willing the launch of the X-Plane 12 for the best 727s ever built for a simulator, I only miss a decent FMC like they have nowadays in real life.
