February 1, 20233 yr I'm guessing that refers to the Captain Sim 777 but honestly I've zero interest in watching a video to confirm if that's the case or not.

February 1, 20233 yr Buyer beware? It clearly states on CS's website what you're getting: " Some systems use default 747 (must be installed) to provide expandability with community mods You buy this, it's on you.

I can only imagine this particular developer makes their living off of newcomers that have no idea of what is good or bad or what they can actually get for their money. 5800X3D - Strix X570-E - 32GB 3600Mhz DDR4 - AMD RX 9070 XT- Samsung 980 Pro x2
February 1, 20233 yr What? This news is around 1.5 years old. The cut-and-shut Captain Sim planes that use the 747s avionics have been out at least that long.

February 1, 20233 yr Captain Sim were not always as bad as they are now. The Boeing 707 for FSX was a rather nice aircraft.

But that was back when hardly anyone had anything like what PMDG puts out. The quality of add-ons has almost universally gone up since those days, and CS never bothered to keep up.

February 2, 20233 yr CS makes such great external models, why would they ruin their reputation like this? Captain Sim is the George Santos of Flight Sim. Because flight sim has spilled over into Xbox, We have to pay closer attention if you are a PC user wanting Study Level Planes. I don't understand why Microsoft would let developer's sell the systems built into MSFS. Developer's should have to use their own models and systems. Why would someone buy a C130 with no Cockpit? I spend 99 percent of my time in the cockpit.
February 2, 20233 yr I remember about ten years ago, I bought an airliner for P3D. The airliner had no landing gear. While you were parked at the gate, the plane just levitated about eight feet off the ground. As it turned out, I needed to also have FSX installed to make the plane whole. Was this a Captain Sim product? It sounds like it.

I'm sure there's payware aircraft for FSX and P3D that also use default systems. 1 hour ago, Patriot3810 said: CS makes such great external models, why would they ruin their reputation like this? Allegedly they have no programmers left. Edited February 2, 20233 yr by Tuskin38
