I tried Orbiter

Spectacular graphics but I didn't understand much of it :stupid:



Tonks was into it at one time :)

Got the two add-ons for the B707 - cargo & E-3. Shame they only have USAF paints for the E-3, but I hope someone will churn out a NATO/OTAN one before too long :)

Mind you - I think the expansions are always 9.99 Euro - so nought saved :S

PS - exchange rate by Paypal only 45p extra on 2 items - so not extortionate like some ;)

Well, I've actually got all the CS products I want now (707,727,757,C130). On the other hand, I can't resist a bargain so I've bought two that I don't want :S

I've now got a 767 and a B52 in the hangar. God knows when I'll find time to fly them, though!

What I really really want is their 732 when it's finished. I've got a bit of pocket money put aside for that one.

Ian :lol:

I've not bought any Payware for a while.

Too busy spending my hard earned in places like Mothercare! :)

Decided to treat myself to the Boeing 707. Thats my friday night babysitting sorted out.

Once's shes gone off, I'll go off myself and have a tootle in it. :rock:

On the right day ... easy peasy! 707 & 757. I'm now asking myself why I bought them, as I don't often fly airliners.

:S

Before anyone corrects me - there shouldn't be a NATO/OTAN paint for the E-3 as it's the 'B' model - and the NATO one was the E-3A.

At least that's how it was when I last had my beadies on them in Geilenkirchen.

TBH I can't remember what they have at Wadders - but it'll be easy to find out.

Had a look at CSIM -
the FS9 models are outdated and worse than the freeware planes I regularly fly.
The interesting models are still strictly FSX only - so I checked out with an empty basket.

Best,

Nick

Any half decent British liveries out there guys? :S

Scanned the usual places and most repaints are for the 300C.

Love to see a BOAC paint. :)

Have you had a good look through the FS9 Legendary 707 liveries, there is a way to convert them to FSX 707 Captain.

Hi Darren

No I haven't looked at any FS9 liveries as I wasn't aware you could port them over.

I always thought the FSX liveries were more detailed and of higher quality than FS9.

It never even crossed my mind. *-)

How is it done?
