Good to see the 777 getting an outing! I took mine off because of the lack of VC - and promptly forgot I even had it. It's a *huge* aircraft isn't it?

I recall looking at one before boarding the first time in Auckland , Malaysian Airways - only the back end was used and at request to see the cockpit mid-flight , because it was empty walk up there was WOW this thing is long - couple drink stops required on the way thru

I would love to get this plane, would make my Boeing fleet complete (almost!) lol
Just yeah, needs a cockpit really. Let us know when it's out guys
Awesome shots Ian, sold it for me..

Added with my new GSX and the wing flex of the model , I did believe I was on an International flight , impressive , did you see the Cathay Pacific 777 do the low level city flyover in 1995 ... now that was COOL

With the Captain Sim test Pilot module , the regular updates this is the one that will be handy for your airport taxi , this released SP3

To find gates , and even to have on-route charts to the airport , NZ being easy really only operate the 777 out of three CH-WN-AA

you can zoom , cycle and have a complete set to follow your flights check your nav as you go

Good looking NZDN scenery... though the hills on the eastern side of the airport (other side of the runway to the buildings) looks a little too close... there is actually about 1.5nm from the runway to the hills

[Ian Warren]

That's your NZSI scenery for you , it easy to replace the buildings later stage .

Course , another update

Well , over a Coffee we can discuss the goods and the bad's ... tho don't we get that conflict between a CS or PMDG model .... they always in and above the others , someone has to do the job of testing and comparing for you guys

[NZ255]

And we all appreciate it!
