Too be honest, the CS 767 nose looks fine to me, so what is the problem you are talking about?

What is it that is wrong with the nose? The Captain Sim 767's nose looks perfectly fine to me.

Isn't that heavy seam, between the fuselage and the nose cone, cosmetic? Can't it be added using the repaint kit? Or does it only need bump mapping?
I'm guessing that the "lines on the nose cone" only need to be added using bump mapping.

Either way, it has never bothered me.

Exactly, the shape is fine, the detail might be added with bump mapping or paint maybe...

Yes, the plastic nose with the typical lines would make a huge difference.


See my picture in the Topic "A real Boeing nose". For some reason I cannot upload pictures anymore. I always get the complaint "102kb cannot be uploaded"!?

Thanks Markoz, I tried it but it won't work.
Well, I have just found an approach/departure video of a EuroAtlantic 767 on youtube. Near tailstrike!
In these colours, the 767 looks really sleek and elegant. The engines look smaller than the CS ones. On approach, the left and right main gear look less apart than with my CS one. Maybe this has to do with the difference in size of the engines?
IMHO the trouble is that there is a difference. It is just very hard to tell what it is. Something is not right. For that reason I only bought this particular add-on about half a year ago. Of course, apart from that, it is really good. I just wish CS could change the outside so that it feels just right to the eyes.

Here's the link to the video I've mentioned:

On the nose radome those lines are lightning strips as far as the lines behind the windows that is where they build the flight deck and attach it to the rest of the fuselage.   I think Mark was right when it could be something painted on.

Hi AirCanadaGuy,

No offense, but I think Don is right.

As far as I know, the radar domes are almost entirely made ​​of fiberglass, an electrical insulating material, so, most fiberglass radar domes have metal diverter strips to form a path for the electrical current to flow to the metal frame of the radar dome and then to the fuselage in case of a lightening strike to the radar dome.

Pinatubo.

I think they do, I guess they don't think the shape of the winglets is good?

I pretty much see them too small from all angles, it's not hard to realize by looking pics of real aircraft... or even another FS 767WL. I won't post pics from another payware but just look at this World of AI model, if I could copy/paste that into the CS 767!  

I think we have not heard an usual "thank you we will get it to our development team for consideration" also, but it's ok I guess things are going rush on the 777 models. Or they do actually have new winglets but can't release them alone, I mean, maybe they'll wait to have more new features to include in an update release... who knows.

Also, repainters have put details in some liveries, what will happen when CS release new winglets? will they be white? I don't have a problem with that either lol
