Yes.. the one in the 3rd shot is kinda funky with the front and rear RH side not loaded!

I'm gonna have to try and find my details for the QW model and see if that's less hungry. Doubt it somehow. The gauge file alone will bring lesser PC's to it's knees

Very impressive Mr. B. I do like the QW models, but they've no interest in bringing them up to P3D4 standard by all accounts... Not surprised given the size of the gauge file!

Their 757 is lovely too.

TA Mr W
As I mentioned in another thread.. the QW 757 Collection holds a certain fascination though I'm not sure I'd ever get much use out of it. And there's always the problem of QW upgrading it should I one day go up the do-dar tree to P3D. If the 146/RJ's are a non-starter.. I doubt the 757 will be

You're bang on Dave, they've stopped updating it a while ago and have categorically said there will be no updates for it. They do seem to release, patch and then leave you to it. I seem to recall the user community battling with them to update it for P3Dv1 as initially it wouldn't install at all.

Well mate..
I've just jumped through hoops of fire trying to get the 146 down from F1 and in doing so, have exceeded my activations

To add to the mire.. both my password and email address have changed since I bought it and the system won't let me change them. I have the .lic, the PoP.htm and key files and their system lets me get so far then says no. I've had to open a ticket and send them the 3 files above.. whether they wanted them or not. I DO have an F1 account there but the 146 and the vast majority of my other F1 purchases weren't purchased with the account.
I've just said to Alison it would be easier to break into the Tower of London!

Hiya mate its good to see you up an about in real aircraft
The QW 146 is a bit resource heavy even in non hd liveries. I can get about 2 hrs before out of memory
I prefer QW 757 over the jf freemium it looks better IMO and has a bit more functionality. Still you get what you pay for. Its much lighter resource wise. I sometimes fly it as a substitute for the 737. FSA just sees it as a 2 engined Boeing. Uses a bit more fuel but not been pulled for it yet

Hello mate
Are you saying the QW757 is lighter on resources than the 146 or the Freemium 757 (or both)

QW only use the F1 wrapper don't they (worse luck)

The 757 uses esellerate from memory mate, not Flight1 (unless that's changed)
