Is it just a HD graphics repackage or are there improvements to the overall model?

There is a huge difference since from the original CLS, they hooked into the cockpit textures and the externals have really been souped up , just playing around with on landing it give a impression it a totally , "pilots aircraft" , tho been a while since I'v used an INS , something I have to go back to school on.

I'm not one to live in the past, but I do think that was one of the best liveries ever.

I hope this isn't Sunday morning -- at 10.30am all I want to hear out my window is the local church bells...

Yeah, what he said..... :hesaid: The cockpit has a lot more functionality now as well. The flyby (And general sight seeing) was not done with autopilot, she was hand flown and it,s a huge difference. All the interviews I've seen with DC-10 pilots say she is a real pleasure to fly, quirky but fun, and this aircraft is, she is a pleasure to fly and one you really have to monitor or she can get away on ya.
