I truly hope you are right Chris, which would you recommend for 1920X1080 27" display?

Thank you for your well thought and refreshing feedback guys.. As a pretty newly ported flight simmer from FSX I tend to fall into the bad habbit of doing comparasing parallells between the two. Guess this is normal to some extend, but nevertheless there is a genuine interest behind it for sure. Let me tell you a short story... When I was a "FS Guru" sort of speak I was frequently flying on VATSIM, I even hold a C1 rating as an ATC (for what's that wurth), and my primary aircraft to fly was the PMDG 737-600/700/800. This aircraft was the first "real" good looking and system simulated (again to the extend we can call it simulated) aircraft that was on the marked since FS2004. I bought my first XP at the version of 8 and I can honestly say i did not care for it then and the same did go for XP9.. I admit I can count on two sets of hands how many time it has been installed on my computer. Reason was all from bad terrain to horrible clouds etc.. Let me say this, I did not put in a huge effort to really get to know XP as the main reason was that it did not have a capable aircraft for flying on VATSIM (purhaps with the exception of the wonderful 767-300ER) Anyway, and then XP10 came out and It just took one flight to win me completely over, uninstalled every tiny pease of FS residue that was found on my computer and have never looked back.. But there is something missing!!!! I have tried to fly the x737 with the UFCM, but it does not feel right, the 2d cockpit is somewhat to large and to small for me.. And I really miss a truly good, fully working FMC, besides that I do not think the fuselarge is all that slick too. I do appologies to any fan or developer of this aircraft, it is not my intention to shit on it, but rather point out some missing simularity between that and PMDG.. And yea I do not it's freeware contributed and not payware. So with regards to the above line, it is a great airplane. Let me show you what I mean about the 2D panel size First PMDG Then iFly Then x737 (nice, but the developer should have removed the bottom part below the EADI and PFD's, and what is the overhead about? Where is the rest?) Ok, again freeware and payware... This was the main reason for my "Dear developer" notice on this forum. Day to day I see some insane looking renders of airplanes and scenery made for X-Plane 10, a sneakpeek into what to come. I do also know that 3rd party vendors spend a great amount of time making such an aircraft and a single user may not have the resourcess needed to even try to simulate and model such. But If we look at planes like the CRJ-200 by Jrollon and the upcoming 737Classic and 777-200, I am sad to hear we will not see a 737NG machine for XP10 I would bet a retail price of i.e 290.98 NOK would be accepted if such a develop aircraft was to see the marked sometime in the future, please do not under estimate the end users capability and willingness to buy. Therefore, my dream is still the same, I do hope we see a nice feature rich 737NG sometime in the future. PS.. As a developer I must say that I do not agree, there is allways a place for a payware vendor. Yea for sure, purhaps after the (guessing 1900D) will know NB! Excuse my bad english spelling, not my native language

Thanks Chris

X737 is a great freeware aircraft, but not the quality i wish for, the 2d cockpit is somewhat funny looking.. And UFCM is not all that good.. All in all a great alternative, but was thinking more in the rabge of i.e the new 737classic project and the above mentioned products

This is truly one of the missing links in X-plane, can't wait

Recently there has been a nice visual improvement in the quality of recent aicraft development. But as extremely nice this is I failed to see some renders of any 737ng developments out there. This aircraft is in my opinion the missing link in X-plane, an fully working aircraft with a fully working FMC is really a dream to me. I hate to see FSX has aircraft like PMDG and iFLY with such good quality and not have an similar airplane in XP. So while I wait for airplanes like 777-200 by Ramzess an and fly airplanes like the beautiful CRJ200 and the Dash8, i truly hope some one of you guys can make a 737NG aircraft soon.

Thank you sir

Just wished it had some picures, would like to see the aircraft

Is the photoscenery below the roads? Seems they do not allign up?

Cool

What is an review without pictures?

Thanks Chris for coming to my aid

How do i use this, set up?

Holy crap

Repaint or a new aircraft

Can't wait for this to be released, so that I can finally be out flying and 737 once again.. Been too long!

I dont want anything new in version 11, just want them to perfect what we allready have and make it stable and working with 64bit. Better to stop for a moment and establish the platform, fix the bugs and make sure it works befor introducing something new all the time

Made no sense to me, shift, shift shift

Thanks Kieran, you learn something new everyday

What about my question?
