And the 707?

Perhaps they will change tack with a complex cockpit but no wings or engines?

Let me make a suggestion to our CaptainSim friends to help out: There are two MSFS existing  airplane addons they could use the four-engine cockpit with their old FS9 707 skin: The DC Design Concorde and the JustFlight Bae 146, they both have four engines and old steam gauges so that should do the trick...

Come on, this is neither funny nor charitable, crawl back under your stone BD!

I would luv to see a 707 or even better 727, I had a lot of fun with these in FSX, probably not a strong enough market.

No law says you can’t reinstall FSX and pull your favs out of moth balls to play for a while.

True, but seeing those old birds shiny bare metal skin and smokey engines in the MSFS environment would be an experience for sure.

Wouldn't be surprised if someone came up with one once for X-Plane once 12 comes out.  I'd love to see one.

I wouldn’t be surprised if anyone cared for X-plane 12 here, or anything you would love to see there lol

Would rather have a decent DC-8 70 Series, but that's wishful thinking. But with glass cockpit it should be doable I guess.

Why bother with those folks at this point, just seeks the attention where unwarranted. 707? no not for me, I would fly it once or twice than like in RL would be resorted to the scrap yard. Tempted for a 727 though which I may fly 4 times a year.

You can flight the first transatlantic Queen of the sky Redwing Super Constellation while you wait for the 707, now my favourite plane, you get bored less in cruise jumping to the enginner´s seat mangeing fuel pumps etc.. Do it all yourself, for me the AI only serves incredible well for check lists, do not ask or rely too much time on the engineer to control the power or the pilot managing climb altitude and speed etc. by the moment till new updates.

Me, I'm looking forward to XP12.
Different sims with different focuses (foci ?) are a good thing for simmers.

100 percent agree with you. Flight simming doesn't have to be one sim only.

I am saying "What about the 707 for MSFS?" in the forums since MSFS began. Nobody still hears me. I'm sure there's a lot of crazy boomers who'd be very happy to have the plane on which they received the Airliner Baptism when kids or even youngsters. I propose 5 versions: 707-120 A&B, 707-320 B&C and E-3 Sentry. There you pretty much depict the whole story of the plane.

Plus a B720 / B720B for me!

Someone needs to convince these guys to head over to MSFS. I'm actually surprised that they are still around. Great stuff back in the day. Their external models merged with a Paul Golding 2D panel was the way to go.
