I'd rather see a 747-400 from CS, but nobody has ever mentioned the Dash-8. That's a great aircraft that is not well-represented in FSX.

What is a Dash-8?

Yeah. I meant Dash 8, not Dash-8.  Wink

Though who manufactures it? I've heard DeHavilland, Boeing, and Bombardier...

The Dash 8 was developed by de Havilland and is now produced by Bombardier. Check our the link provided by Edwin.

Not to be rude or anything, but I would say the 747-100 led to the 747-400/8 series not the A380. I agree with you though. I LOVE the 747-100 it is an amazing aircraft! I saw The City Of Everett prototype 747 last year and it is a beautiful aircraft with an amazing history!

Yeah, if I remember correctly, the 747-100 wasn't used for that long. However, the 747-400 is the most popular variant.

I flew on a TWA 747-100 series in August 1987 R/T between KJFK and EDDF. I don't know how long or how many were produced but the 100 series was used for a long time.

Yeah, the 747-100 was used for awhile, so I didn't really say that correctly. What I mean is: The -100 wasn't the only variant around for long. There are wider gaps after the -200, -300, -400, and -8 than there is after the -100. Also, I'm pretty sure the 747-100 got the least amount of orders.

just a small mistake. but its always a good idea to look at the past to find our future. what in mean is that the production numbers should set the order in witch cs puts them out
