The original base package was the 100 series , they have now changed that to the 200 series , like few off us we already have these versions so probably what they are sorting out so release may only be weeks/month away .

On a side note, I see they've switched the -200 model, so that is now the base model. winkyy.gif

Which is good. Not really interested in the -100.

Strangely yes already mentioned another thread , ironic of the very small number produced , four off them operated in New Zealand , and course one off those chosen to sit at the Boeing Museum , ... End off the day if Captain Sim launched its product a 100 series at the 39UK pounds , people probaly would not but it .

Strange ? the tail fillet has not been replaced nor has the nose , maybe a rush to the competitors for the dollar .

Just Flight's aeroplanes are decently functional, especially when there's no alternative, but they're usually not in the same league as many of the other payware developers.

Yeah, it all depends on whos actually built the model, they're just agents for other peoples work mostly right? This JF 732 is from BlackBox who I think are some staff from the former PSS crew, and their addons I always found were nicely detailed and good value. I'm picking this will be the same

Yeah that's true, they're a publisher rather than a developer. You could certainly do a lot worse, but when you've been flying LotusSim and RealAir and so forth they always feel a bit basic in comparison. Nothing necessarily wrong with that though, sometimes I just want to fire up an aircraft and go flying straight away without wading through hours of checklists!
