From the loading screen and the descriptions there, I thought about a fake or something. But up came the good ol' 737NG, which is NG since 12 years or so.
However, really nice detail pics to look at. :) Thanks for the HU. Notice all the marketing phrases in the descriptions there (which isn't a Boeing special of course, but an industry standard). Full of 'up to' or even no numbers but tons of nice sounding phrases. 'Position for future success now', a masterpiece of 'by the book' advertising texts. Says nothing, sounds .. huge. ;D And those charts just using 'lower costs' arrows but no numbers .. great stuff. Don't read this the wrong way, the competitors do it exactly the same way. If you follow those texts, trees actually start to grow faster when you park aircraft beside them. ;D More seriously. I'd say the new Sky Interior really is a treat for passengers. The site invites to click around, e. g., me was landing at the 787 details. A great read about a really new plane. And the ANA guys will get theirs first. |

And don't forget that one of the next CS releases will be this impressive thing. http://www.newairplane.com/777/#/204

The fuselage on the aircraft in the first shot looks bigger than that of a 767 fuselage to me. The engines are the right shape for the 777 too. But I could be wrong too! ;D

My main focus was the gear. Is that a triple setup there?
I'm not good at this though. |

It's defiantly a 767, I could tell at first glance, to me in sure looks like there are only two gear, and the engines look to small to be Trent 800's like AAL using on their 777's. Also the wings look to short to be on a 777.
Also a big selling point to that it is a 767, look at the side of the aircraft. There are only two large doors instead of four as on the 777. ;) |

I was looking at those too, and they look like the windows of a 767. |

Yeah, those look like 767 windows. There's defiantly a double gear setup there, if you look at the left gear very closely you can see it.
