Repetition makes you better and better at the task at hand. It is the difference between a professional and an amateur.

The intermix comment is interesting. My friend is a 777 Captain that owns a 185. He intermixes weekly because he uses the 185 to commute. He can't wait to retire and be flying the 185 only.

If everyone of those PS5 buyers purchased a PMDG 737-800 and 777-200, PMDG would have additional revenues of $37,291,450. There is money in them there hills!!!

I like both but prefer Airliners. Basically I am a virtual Airliner pilot that owns a TBM and Hondjet. Many career ailriner pilots have their own private plane. Fly airliners for money and GA for fun on days off.

Which do you like better? Yes, you!

Good job on the screenshot. That looks like some corrupt installation files. Did install go smoothly or did you run into issues and have to do an install on top of a previous install? Have you tried zooming in or out on that camera view?

With an NVIDIA video card Alt+ F9 takes a screenshot.

Can I get a screenshot of what you are talking about?

PMDG needs to forget the quest to be the 737 variant add-on King. First add-on developer with a high fidelity 787 wins all the marbles. They will have massive cash flow to become the MSFS 2024 behemoth.

MSFS 2024 classifies Stansted (EGSS) in the United Kingdom as a world famous airport in their precision landing challenge series. I though great let's go see a famous airport in London. It was a long boring approach over farmer's fields. Can someone please tell me why anyone would think Stansted is famous? Admittedly the agrarian scenery was beautiful. Is this what Stansted is famous for? The approach in was so boring that I almost fell asleep and narrowly missed crashing into a farmer's field.

It is very sensitive. One of my yoke buttons is a camera button. I press that button softly and the AP disconnects.

I think PMDG will drop the price wants the run out of FOMO/Early adopter buyers. The 700 shouldn't be the same price as the 738.

Are your settings and monitor 4K?

What do you expect the price to be? My guess is $49.99.

I guess you don't know the difference between "Major" and "All". No biggie. Not an important life lesson. Just wondering why you feel the need to tell us that you don't know this.

So now we know why the 600 is PMDG's cheapest 737 and why the 800 is PMDG's most expensive 737.

737 sales by variant up to January 2025:

Looking at the current carriers that fly the 737-700, it looks like I do in fact need this add-on. Dang you PMDG!!!!

Who is excited and has their money set aside for this??? Major Airlines Operating the Boeing 737-700 Southwest Airlines: The launch customer and largest operator, with roughly half of the world's 737-700 fleet. United Airlines: Operates a significant fleet of 40+ 737-700s, primarily for domestic routes. Alaska Airlines: Uses the type within its Boeing fleet. Avelo Airlines: Utilizes 737-700s for its low-cost, point-to-point service. WestJet: A Canadian carrier that includes the 737-700 as a key part of its narrow-body fleet. Air China: Operates the 737-700 within its network. Copa Airlines: Operates the 737-700 in its Latin American network. GOL Transportes Aéreos: Brazilian carrier with 737-700s in its fleet. Other carriers that have used or currently use this aircraft include Air Algérie, Tassili Airlines, TAAG Angola Airlines, KLM, Luxair, TUIFly, and Turkish Airlines

Nice job man!! Any plans to upgrade those pedals? I had those pedals. They use potentiometers instead of hall effect sensors. When the pots go, flying becomes wonky, unpredictable and disrupted. Also, the brakes break very easily as the springs are anchored to thin plastic plates. Your dog is lovely.

Yes they did withdraw the navdata. Navigraph doesn't have the charts but will give you the RNAV-15Z routing. This can be seen at the 32 second mark of my video. All the RNAV waypoints are there and will load into to the FMC. It is a crazy ride into that valley. 15 is a hard approach. 33 is very easy and not a challenge at all.

@Mike_CFII_MEL can you please do this route in your 737 Sim??????

Very cool! I love the retro flight sim video. Awesome media from the archives.

For the westerners, a crisp is a potato chip.

Thanks for this. I guess I will wait for the 320 Sim Pilot review, as he is 777 type rated. This was his 2024 review.
