Posted: Sun May 18, 2014 11:31 pmEvery time I'm home from a couple of weeks working away from my desktop PC with flightsims, I check up on the status of P3D V2. Although it looks really nice, I'm still not 100% convinced.
It needs some serious developer grunt before it's a replacement for FSX in my book, both from Lockheed Martin and 3rd parties to start bringing the complex simulations to P3D.
However, I did figure out the PMDG 747X is working in P3D without any issues so far, so that gave me a reason to keep it installed and test some more
. Here are some shots.
First off some NZ shots:
CS 707 over Christchurch rebuild

First landing in ages with the PMDG 747X, nailed it!

and as for that QANTAS 707, that is not far from the real last flight i saw leave was around 1978. That PMDG 747 is superb.
