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 smile.gif

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 cool.gif

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 cool.gif

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
