Thanks Dean really appreciate that. No I am surprised as well they have not updated the ATR. Is it PMG the best for the 737-300 ?

I would say without a doubt the PMDG 737 is the best out there for the NG 600 to 900 , for the earlier 200's the Captain Sim aircraft is my choice, as for the 300/400/500 series I simply would not know.

The QW 737 is good for a classic 737-300

Do you mean the Wilco/FeelThere or maybe 50N models? I have both of those and they work fine (2D panel for the Wilco) on P3D.
The QW 737 hasn't been released, dev has stopped on it for the time being sadly.

For the 100-200 series there is the CaptainSim and Milviz are both excellent and both P3D compatible.

I did a post on the payware 'Texan' , it is very much different to the default but the same .. after all from the same stable that built the default only seriously upgraded , if you don't have moneys .. shrug ya shoulders and say close enough .. :)

Who makes the Paywear Texan I am interested in checking it. My Old FSX fleet had a good fleet of RNZAF aircraft including C17 but need to try and track these down.

Huge difference, the P3D is a give away for FSX , the very uprated version , I would say a must for the RNZAF Texan fan ... best example is comparing it to the freeware DC-3 to the original default.
