They operate the -9

Probably explains why no one has done it.

Ah good point I didn’t realize that.  There are some fictional paints out there (delta for example) so hopefully we’ll see a copa paint at some point.  Thank you for the paints that you’ve contributed!

I don't know why that didn't even cross my mind.  Thanks kindly!

Same for Alaska, only the -9 (40 in the fleet as of today).

I still find the autopilot turns to be a little too agressive since the update.  Really hope they can put the door controls in a more easily accessible spot in the EFB of cdu as well.  Simbrief and gsx integration would be icing on the cake. But I’m really enjoying flying this plane thus far.

I can't honestly see any difference in autopilot turns with the update. Still seems as it was previously - too aggressive.

I ran the SP file. No problem with install which shows correctly in FMC IDENT as 1.0.0.1 (U13.0)

How is your external sound? There seems to be no sound from the engines.

External sound is fine for me, although I have increased engine sound in P3D to 75% from 50% after seeing a recommendation somewhere to do that

External sounds are lacking which I believe has been acknowledged by the developer and will be addressed in a SP. the cockpit sounds are great I think.

This aircraft looks outstanding, but I have two questions:

Is the vertical awareness display available when pressing the CTR button three times like in the PMDG 737?

Will a freighter version be available?

There is a VSD button for this function on the EFIS.

Speaking only for myself since I'm not related with the devs in any way, considering there is not even an announced real cargo version of the Boeing 737 Max, I doubt iFly will develop this.
