Title: How realistic is the 757/67?

I know it is probably not quite up to the customability of the another company 737 but is it more or less realistic in how it flies and how the FMC behaves?

It's very realistic, it's only faults being that the electrical/hydraulic system is not completely realistic (everything works, but, for example, you can operate the control surfaces with no hydraulic pressure) and a few bugs. The bugs aren't too bad, though: they're just minor things like a couple false warnings that occur when loading saved flights (and by the way, you need to load saved flights twice in order to load the saved settings).

I know I made it sound really bad with that, but the truth is, I don't really notice those faults. I will say, however, that both are older products, so they might be just a step lower than what you're used to. If you don't own, say, the 777 yet, I'd recommend you buy that (especially because v1.0 is going to be released soon, and you'll have to pay full price once that happens), but if you really like the 757 and 767, they certainly wouldn't be a waste of money.

Boeing is right. I don't own neither the 767 or 757 but was able to fly the 767 somewhere else and it was really great. Model looks great and the plane flies just like it should.

Well at least on the 757 flight dynamics feel a bit weird and engine sounds are horrible, but I guess other than that it's okay although not quite as good as newer CS products.

In case of 757 I would recommend you to wait for new version, CS 767 is worth buying as it is now.

There's going to be a newer version of the 757? :D

All we know right now is that CS wants our input for a re-built 757 captain. It could be a long time from now before it's published.
