737-200 with C/F expansion
767 Base
757 base + 300 expansion
727F expansion

Very exciting!

How are people finding the 777 as I am sorely tempted. VERY keen on the PDMG 777 but who knows when that will arrive!

Thanks for the 'heads up'...I just bought 737-200 base and expansion.

Despite this being very flyable, realistic with nice paint jobs, I do miss the full 2D panel. so...having activated, there's no chance of a refund. I've tried inserting a generic panel, but this results in the landing gear disappearing. I'm sure there's a workaround somewhere...but just be aware that Capt.Sim think 2D panels are outdated.

26/12/12 Updated:
Just managed to find a workaround, using a generic panel. Landing gear shows up ok.

At this cost .. hells its great .. , course i'm a PMDG man but nothing like a GOOD stopgap

I like the Boeing 737... My first airliner ever was the Boeing 737-400 for FS 2002...
So here we have now the complete list of Modells. Boeing 737-100/200 (CS) Boeing 737-300/400/500 (incl. Winglets) feelthere/Wilco and Boeing 737-600/700/800/900 and BBJ 1-3 PMDG or Ifly...

I like these old variants. Lufthansa was initiator of the Boeing 737-100 and the first customer. But, this little bird was not successful. But, the -200 was and this in competition with the Douglas DC-9 and the BAC 1-11. Meanwhile the DC-9 is gone in Europe, maybe are some examples in Mexico and Africa, the last BAC-1-11 opeated by the Royal Oman Air Force is gone last year and the Boeing 737-200 is also a rare bird. Ironicly Some of these are flying in Russia (SAT Air) and Kirgistan... after the Tupolev Tu 134 was phased out.

Andreas , of all things three of the original Lufthansa 737-100s operated in New Zealand for the Ansett group , when they were striping and putting the livery on here in Christchurch around the doors still showed reminiscent of old Lufthansa Blue cheat line 1987 i guess it was .

Well you can always go the B-52 way , they are still regular visitors in the UK and boy its a lotta fun and you have the airbases for them

[deeknow]

B-52 multi-play Ian? How bout one night next week? We could even have some fighter escorts if we have numbers... how about someone in a refuelling tanker :-)

[Ian Warren]

Sound like an offer i can't refuse ... quiet a few good paints , get KAHU Gavs Ohakea in the mix course sure he'd be in for the run , I can set up and let every oneno IPs and we be racing

I was tempted but surprisingly stayed strong and avoided the 777. But.....come on PDMG
