(hopefully) The first airliner I ever learned to fly properly in FS was the Dreamfleet 727 in FS94, back in about 2003. 🙂 Happy about this news, and I'm personally delighted that Raul is involved, given the clear passion and dedication to the Sting S4. PS.. Fantastic to see a true legend of those days, in @Paul Golding in this thread, and still around in the community.

And she had a mixed reputation I am sorry to say, pilots loved the bird, the pax a little less : dutch roll supposedly making them sick at the rear, noisy P&W engines. When I flew to London, it was in 66 I reckon, London airport was just...London Airport not Heathrow. I flew to spend a month in a Croydon family as a teenager to improve my english. 😉 Croydon? Was there anything left of the old Croydon airport at that time? Or was it gone already by 1966? I happen to love the Caravelle, I believe it is a beautiful airplane, far better looking than a 707 or Comet, for example. What we REALLY need is a Breguet Deux Ponts, if you're talking French classics. My first flight was in July 1990 aboard an American Airlines 727-200 (adv?). The food service was excellent -- an actual meal with tasty pasta -- unlike anything I get today in airlines for a flight from St. Louis to Cancun. Today I'd be lucky to get a box of animal crackers and a ginger ale. Rhett 7800X3D ♣ 96 GB G.Skill Flare ♣ Gigabyte 4090 ♣ Crucial P5 Plus 2TB

Just like the 737....100's of airlines flew the 727, I'm so glad with MSFS there are dozens more great painters contributing to the hobby...In P3d there were only a small handful of us. I'm pretty sure you'll get your AC AND CP 727s to fly in MSFS. 🙂 Regards, Steve DraGet my paints for MSFS planes at flightsim.to here, and iFly 737s hereDownload my FSX, P3D paints at Avsim by clicking here
