Looks good! Is this FS9 or FSX? I presume it's for the default 747. Is there a NZ repaint for the IFly747 (for FSX)?

Nice mate thumbup1.gif
The 747 SP looks really weird. Much to short.

This is FS9 with the POSKY model, textures adapted from the POSKY B744. Can't wait for their B777 to be released.

Their modelling is so good - hope they get the FDE right too.

Oh really? I didn't even know they had one in development- any links?
EDIT: found this on the POSKY forums... wow!

As for the 747SP... just look at the size of that vertical stabilizer, it looks completely out of proportion with the rest of the aircraft- bit of an eye sore. I'm glad ANZ don't fly them for real!

If you use the same system though, if they add another few metres to the 380 will it pretty it up? I doubt it. Yet to see the plane, hope it gets to Perth one day.

laugh.gif LMerraine... painters with a stutter.

The A380 is a bit on the ugly side, I think it might be the forehead.
Making it longer is a bit of an improvement and it somehow reminds me of a double decker A340-600 or something.

Yeah I agree it is with the front, looks like when they were wheeling it out, the top whacked the hanger, and they thought, stuff it, we're already behind schedule, let's leave it this way.

I understand why they did it, but yeah, I can't see her being the ugly duckling that the 747 was, which of course now is one of the prettiest swans that grace our skies.

Having said that I thought the 340 was one ugly mofo, but I've seen a number of them in Perth, and think they are gaining popularity on my list.
