737 NG going "Toto".... :-)

[jcomm 5,440]

In my native Language - Portuguese - this would have a depreciative meaning :-), but the "Toto" here is the developer of the astounding Challenger 650 for X-Plane, probably the most advanced, detailed, precise addon ever built for any of the generic flight simulation platforms I've been using since decades.

Emmanuel dedicates the video linked bellow to this SUPERB CL 650, and I guess he'll soon fall for it - yet another fall in X-Plane's land 🙂 - Emmanuel has good taste, and he surely knows what he picks 😉

I honestly expected a long haul to somewhere in Africa. Well, looks like I should have held the line. Anyway, back to Rosanna.

You better run, Manuela run and supply some love, or it's gonna be goodbye girl, goodbye right before they shoot you in the back with your own gun!

I thought this was an X-plane web-Paich and not music...

Paich? …. no, that’s CS80. This is about CL650 🙂

Having to wait for their A220 is killing me.

Ugh…I have been trying to resist this plane, but it’s so good!

I know this will draw some groans, but I’d love to see a CRJ200 version adapted and release from this platform…since my company doesn’t look like it is ever going to retire our fleet and I apparently just can’t seem to get enough of them 😂

You will love the Hotstart. All audio warnings are from the real aircraft and sound exactly the same as the CRJ “Jet Pipe Overheat”.,, 

It probably wouldn’t be difficult for Hotstart to build a CRJ-200 from the foundation they have made with the 650, since so many aircraft systems are the same - but there probably wouldn’t be enough demand to make it worth their while.

any word on the 650 getting some VR friendly features? makes me so very grumpy VR wasnt a priority

For the god's sake of clarity can you guys stop referring him as "737 NG"? That's a well known aircraft series and been represented in X-Plane with multiple instance. Please use 737NG Driver or maybe NG Driver for short.
