Horizon 787-9 v1.0 released

I wonder if the Kuro 787-8 will be updated now. 

the 787-8 is a separate project not by Horizon. While Kuro did apparently help a bit with the -9, he wasn't the main dev like the -8.

That's also why the 787-8 is not on the headwind launcher.

    Please read the relevant topic on AVSIM, there is no such problem, only an inadequate input of weights and fuel. We are a bit hasty in blaming without checking and slow to be laudative sometimes...

  • if you have an issue, go to their discord and be constructive.  people did this aircraft for free and don't deserve to have their work slimed as 'just rubbish.'

Which is preferred, HW Installer or FS.TO?

as others said, use the installer. easy to use and does also incremental updates, so e.g. just the sound files or html or whatever is updated, no need to download the complete pack every time one line of code was changed

Pardon me for a dumb question, but I have not yet used any of the 787 models yet. Is this new offering from Horizon of near pay-ware quality? It sounds really great from what I have read, and to offer this free of charge is fantastic. I am just curious, and I am thinking more along the lines as to how it compares to the QW 787 for FSX, which I really enjoyed.

Cheers, Pete

It's modified from the Asobo 787-10, that some people around here have said is very close to the QW787 quality.

But I haven't personally flown the -9 yet.

But I'm reading there are issues with taking off. If you have 49% load or higher, the plane just refuses to pull up until a certain speed and then it just goes full tilt with your stick/yoke.

Thanks! I think I will give this one a shot. You sure can't beat the price!

you still need to download the livery pack from fs.to though

Hopefully one of our talented painters is already working on an Air Canada paint!

Is there a Simbrief profile > I couldn't see one so just added the standard 787-9 Airframe for now

Does the GE version come with the custome engine sounds or do I need to download those from somewhere else? The way some streamers explained that it sounded like a separate file.

Forget this nonsense.

The official livery pack comes with three (IMO) well made ones.

It's certainly pay-ware quality and thanks to the underlying WT systems much more solid and non-glitchy avionics-wise than e.g. the CRJ or ATR. It's not on the level of the PMDG or Fenix, if that's what you ask, but it's not far off and most likely the best 787 we will ever get for that sim.

For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.

Thanks, this sounds more than adequate for my purposes. I will have to test this bird out later today.
