Very nice SP

(no wing flex on the 747?)

BTW if anyone missed the news, the www.projectopensky.com website will shut down on Aug 31, and all the downloads will disappear then also I believe.
So get in while you still can.

That 747 looks like some of the photos I took standing at the end of the runway at CHC a few years back. Nice

Having a little read on another forum , one compared the A380 to a Zepplin with wings , further mentioned just how well designed the Boeing 747 and its looks , if it looks right , it fly's right so must be right .

I do like the CS 777 model, but I think I'll "invest" in some regional metal first. Great shots!

Don't think so Ian. POSKY just went their separate ways if I remember correctly.

Thanks Connor , i cant afford the C/S model (777) and it sounds like it still has a few teething problems , so the POSKY one is more than adequate for my needs. Busy downloading more of their stuff before they disappear.

Next time you stop here Marty you can take the triple seven out for a spin ... the process now off the build is continous almost weekly upgrade and update .

Will do Ian thanks .... just a bit crook at the moment. Im good friends of a young fella whose dad flys the 777 for ANZ (Roger Read) would be interesting to get a real drivers input on the model.

That's the best deal you can get , had many here who'd have the steering wheel and are simply impressed - the best deal to show a FS near real simulation .. the PMDG would grab his attention .
