A few questions regarding AS2012 and FSUIPC

If you only use AS2012 weather engine, then keep Active Sky Evolution. -
Captain sim 737-200 Base pack has been released

Does the first variants of 757 including GPS receivers? Personally I'd say the first variants means less work, less chance of hard core disfigurement. I know my comment is controversy but this is my conclusions after being a CS customer for so many years. Yeap, that's my favorite bird, I have flown it since the 2004 SSTSIM version released, after a few years of study I dedicate most of my hours on Concorde now. Others are just too low and too slow. ^_^ Now she takes away most of my flight hours. -

Thanks for the work, that's a very useful mod. -

Lovely, Lovely, and thanks for your post regards to the RXP integration.

Skill of navigation is just a part of flight operation, not everything. Beside letting VOR/DME takes most of my attentions during the descent I'd rather spend them on the energy management and perform a smooth descent. The art of flying vintage won't disappear by just adding an INS or GPS. Just like adding a GPS or INS to those Russian aircraft. It won't take away the spirit, we can see them on tu154 and even Yak42. I have no idea why my words lead you to think of flying a FMC equipped add-on. Yufeng -

No, more practical, has nothing to do with realistic. You didn't get my points. Yufeng -
So far only ORYXSIM's Canadian airports pack one, you can operate Kelowna RNP procedures, which fly by Westjet 736. Turbine Duke's GNS can certainly do so.

I am disappointed by CS' responds regards to the INS and GPS implement. CS insist that they won't model because, "There's no INS in the original 737-200. So no in the model." However I disagree, here are my reasons. 1st, at present time, there are more and more advanced RNAV procedures that require an aircraft with GPS and FMS based to operate. in most situation the RNAV procedure is the only way to operate. On the other side, even I want to fly the old fashion way, where shall I obtain the old and outdate charts. And, during the online flight, especially when airspace is busy and ATC positions are limited, Radar vector certainly increase ATC friends workload and may not be welcomed. 2nd, workload, in flight simulation, it is a one man cockpit for most flyers. For an aircraft like 732, which only provide basic autopilot function, the VOR/DME only navigation method is definitely a nightmare when flying into some busy or complex airspace that involved frequency commands associated with calculations. 3rd, similar to my first reason, the radio navigation needs more time on flight planning and monitor, I don't believe people will enjoy this if every flight needs to do so. Sometimes I just want to relax myself during the cruising. By adding INS and GPS could certainly extricate these workload. If CS insist no INS support and we are not able to DIY one. I can still fly this aircraft, but I believe I will just leave it in my hanger for most of the time, which is a really petty. -
There are so many theories, reasons, evidences that can be used to defend, for both side of customer and developer.However, my suggestions are1. For the customer: Everything has its drawback, and nothing is perfect, sometime you have to find compromises. Before type your words, make sure it goes though your brain and sensibility...2. For the developer: Admit your products have simplifications and limitations are better than defended them with "reasonable" excuses

It's 737 Classical not Airbus.Worth a try, but keep in mind this is Classical made by Wilco not NG made by PMDG. We need to wait for SP, at lease this is an icon of Wilco previous product(s).It's got be some compromise, but, at least some characters of the sim-old style are well reproduced. You can dig it if you like, however this is a personal preference.

I return my F1 C182 after dig it around for a few days. For me, I bought it just for the G1000, but same like Mustang, too much simplifications. Using Garmin official G1000 trainer and Reality XP's GNS WAAS as references, the F1's just too simple for my standard. I didn't expect the full feature, like safetaxi or build in chart. However, no VNAV, no Checklist editor, no worldwide GNSS procedure for such a long time. Then my answer is NO

Short answer for the system programming, NO, there are limitations. CS product is not target on the hardcore simmer, the system programming and logic is simplify. you can't expect CS to be better than the Dreamfleet 727. At least EPR Setting gauge is missing.You can search the avsim's review. It is a detail review..http://www.avsim.com...10/JFCS/727.htmAlso, you may take a look at the CS forum, there are some topics regards to the fix and issue with current version of their 727.However, if you don't care(or can live) about those some detail and don't need those hardcore stuff, CS727 is the way to go. The price is well worth.
