Title: Re: Buying worth it ?

Bought the plane yesterday, performance is okay I have a very high spec computer and noticed a small drop in performance when using all the lights (with dynamic lighting on) this isn't uncommon so that's Gucci!The plane performs FPS wise on the level of another company 737 in P3Dv4.

In terms of systems it is actually rather nice a few early teething issues with panel states etc and the engine start bug but aside from that its okay. Some real nice features such as a simulated pressurisation system (found this out by leaving a door open).

Visually it looks like a 757 and that can't be a bad thing! I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised with the VC really well made. My only gripe is the MCP panel looks a bit flat, would be nice to add a little definition on it. Also the CRT display on the PFD and ND look almost perfect I have no idea how they did it but you can really tell its a CRT.

Sound-wise it's a little gnarly and some improvements to be made there.

With regard to utilities I think the old Shift+2 system is a bit outdated and a fs actions system should be added to the CDU much like what another company does. A fuel loading tool would also be much appreciated.

Handling is rather nice and it does feel like a big aeroplane and this is something I think it does far better then other Boeing simulations.

I'm slightly annoyed I'll have to buy an RR expansion but that's business really and can understand the possibly financially motivated decision to release the less desirable PW in the base-pack.
