Yes i mean PMDG and yes i know that you can get other variant´s too with extra price.

With 737NG i can recomend both Ifly and PMDG NGX. Maybe if you want more value for your money it is Ifly cause you get all the variant´s while PMDG only give´s you 800 and 900 series. System wise they both are fine. With graphics PMDG is the winner thoug Ifly doesn´t look bad either. With flight dynamics i think PMDG feels bit more realistic. There might be other opininion´s to that. I have them both and if i now have to choose one i would go with PMDG one. After all i only use the 800 series.

That Emirates livery just look good. And probably going to be mostly used by me when it is released. Just wondering if i have purchase Flytampa´s Dubai. Aerologic is another welcomed livery. It´s hard to wait to get it and fly out from Frankfurt and Leipzig.

Get yourself a joystic with throttle and it work´s fine. And it is also a lot more fun flying with joystick rather than with keyboard.

There are many variations between companies on many thing´s. Some airliners prefer to disengage AT and AP at the same time and others allow to use AT during landing while pilot are flying manually. So it is your choice which way you want to do it, either way it is not wrong way to do it.

I disengage A/T at the same time as i disengage A/P. When i disingage those depends on weather. I´m used to fly manually to fl100 after takeoff and during landing i take over before IAF if there are enough visibility.

Certainly my NGX will get most of the flying time still after T7 release. Most of my flights are short hops in Europe. Majestic´s Dash took off some hours from NGX though. Probably the plane that suffers most from my hangar is the mighty 744.

Well not judge L1011 yet. They have succeed a lot better with their older plane types (and i´m not saying that they are bugles). And i think that this conversation is more wether to buy cs777 or to wait PMDG`s one. PMDG have set the par very high and the expectations are huge, so there got to be quita a lot pressure to hold on their level or even pass it higher. My opinnion right now is that CS777 is not worth of 50€. Whit that price you should have a lot more functioning system´s and a lot less bugs. Also their support is worse than few other producers. When i need support i´m expecting receive in reasonably time. They don´t participate in conversation in their forum either. There are few users who try to give support even when they are cs crew members.

They were and still are quite heavy on frames. We have to remember that both of those have quite a few years on their belt. Offcourse most of now days computers can run them over 30fps, but take some other as old as those are and you hit 100fps. I´t really seem´s that they have optimization problems. But don´t get me wrong, i think 757 and 767 are fine products and fully flyable and those few bugs there are is something you can live with. I really hope they sort out the problems with their T7 and they keep producing fine planes.

Yes it can be recomended. It is fine add on with good price. And probably the best one available right now. Yes there is also BBS one, but it is still unfinished product. And yes FSLabs will eventually release theirs, but when, who knows? By the way A319 isn´t included AXE now at all, but it will be added later.

For me the CS 777 was huge disapointment. System´s are far from finished and frames are way lowen than NGX. I know CS have unsolved problems with their previous releases but i actually like´d their 757/767/707. So i thout to give 777 a chance, and it was cheap from their christmas sale (9€). But after version 1.0 and 1.1 which they claim to be finished product made me uninstal it. I probably will reinstall it when (if) they release version 1.2 or what ever it will be (or will it?)

Finally there´s two major releases coming and this the other one ( you probably quess what the other one is :rolleyes: )

Guys, guys no fighting. These are matter of opinnions the other one likes mother and other daughter. Few other developer brought us high system´s and visual´s. So our demanding is growing. I complained the looks, well i´ve used to operate NGX and AXE wich looks great. I´m used to those. So when i jump A330´s captain´s seat it looks pretty ugly. But i think system vice it is already good and they are working hard to get it better. And i think it eventually will wipe floors with AXE when concidering systems. BTW the exterior looks good, hope just someone will paint swiss livery to it (wink wink)

Well i can´t throw a VC pic here right now, but it is pretty uqly. I would say it´s about Wilco´s level at graphics. In systems it look more promising. I made only a short test with it, so i don´t say here what´s working or not. Let´s just hope while they are progressing with system development, they would also make some better graphics to it.

If you want to fly the mighty 747, go and buy it. I did a month ago. Though it´s not as superb as NGX, it still is one of the best in the market. Making a quality addon takes time, i don´t know how far PMDG is with their 747 v2 and i don´t know which one come´s first in their priority DC6 or 747 v2. But i quess that we have to wait v2 for a while.
