If it had to be one or the other I would take the Lockheed over Douglas but I really want a CS 747-100, 200, 400 and F.

I recently got others 747-400 and I like it but CS could do it a lot better.

At some point, when CS has released base packs for the next two, we should have another poll.

polls are fun!

I think it should wait, thats all.

Good evening everybody,

dear Markoz, in France we says " les gouts et les couleurs, çà ne se discute pas ". For me it's a beautiful widebody trijet. The third engine is  well integrated in the tail like the 727. And he as very good technology inside. That's why I vote for the L1011.

I really love the look of the DC-10 and MD-11. I always have. For me, it is the way that the engine is mounted in the back that makes the L-1011 look ugly.

The A380 is one ugly bid. Sorry Airbus fans, but to me it is uglier than many aircraft, but not the L-1011. I think the Airbus A318, A319, A320 and A321 on the other hand are the most beautiful looking Airbus aircraft. Too bad they will ruin it's looks with the new sharklets.

I don't really like the look of the A340 or the A330 either really. I find them odd looking too. Sleek? Maybe. But odd looking.

I have said this a few times, but for your benefit, here it is. I would love Captain Sim to do the 747-100/200/SP. It will be interesting to see what Captain Sim have decided to do after the 737 and 777 are completed. I guess they will be looking into the overhaul of the 757 (v5.0) and 767 (2.0).

I remember when I first saw the 747. It was a strange looking aircraft, but within a year or two, I got to like the look. A lot! That just has not happened with the A380. Quite some years after its release, I still don't like the look of it.

My wants for Captain Sim was.
#1 The 737-100/200. And I was lucky they chose to do it. The freighter didn't matter too much back then, but I'm quite interested now, as I am with the 737-200ADV. But I love the 737-100 the most for some strange reason.
#2 is the 747-100/200/SP and any other 747 model (like a freighter) that is part of that original series.

I was never interested in the 777 and knew little about them until Captain Sim released the 777-200 Exterior. Since then I am keen to get it for some of those extremely long flights.

Until some really nice Airbuses get released, I won't buy them (excluding the A300 and A320/321 X which I already own). All the talk I have seen in the forums is about the difficulty with replicating the FADEC control, so it is hard to "get it right". I see that a few other developers are have been doing one for ages and sounds really good doing Airbuses, but most want to do another A320/A321 series so it will be another aircraft with an oversupplied in FSX. The AS Airbus X is really nice (I love the simplicity of it), but I do look forward to the release of the Extended version as it sounds like a good improvement and a bit more complex to fly. But I still want to fly version 1.xx because it's simplicity is a nice break from all the complex aircraft I use. The developer of that great SST-X, has been working on an A320 Series for quite some time now, and I hope it will be a good complex version. Perhaps more so than the A320/321 X.

Maybe Captain Sim would be willing to give it a try, but it could take a long time before it got released. We might even get an Exterior Model to tide us over for a couple of years or more! OUCH!
