-200 a couple issues.

All in all the 200 is good. However, I did notice the cowling on engine 2 is oval, should be round on the -200. Also, it could just be me but she seems a bit underpowered, it. took the entire runway(and I mean the whole thing) to get it off the ground with a moderate load @ KSAN. The last thing is not a problem but more of a question/request, is there any possibility of a 2 class config on the 200? Other than the above mentioned thank you captain sim for an outstanding bird!

Are you sure you had a -200 model loaded when you noted the #2 engine inlet?  The screenshots for -200 on Captain Sim's website clearly show the round inlet.

Also, if you had a Freighter loaded, be sure it was a -200F not a -100F.

Hope it helps.

I am positive it is the -200, unless you are looking dead-on it can be a bit tough to tell.

This -200 is a beautiful model in every way, but Todd is right.  The #2 engine has an oval inlet cowl which really needs to be corrected if possible.
The round cowl is a defining feature of the -200 and Captain Sim has been so pain staking on ever other detail that I'm surprised this was missed.
The cabin on this plane is unbelievable with even the air conditioning inlet over head and ventilation ducts at your feet. 
It seems like nothing was overlooked except that glaring oval cowl. Wink

I don't know what was my problem with the power of the aircraft leaving KSAN, in the flight today from KOAK back to KSAN she seemed just fine. Sure is a pleasure to fly

I noticed the same on the FedEx -200F last night. New engines and an oval inlet on a 200F...

I'm not a 727 expert by far, but I have never seen this.

Indeed, the #2 is oval on the 200, has to be round.
2nd: LufthansaD-ABHI, name of the plane is "Mönchengladbach" not Monogladbach.
