Yes that is correct Jim but then it very quickly changed because of
everyones attitude towards MX (rightly so at times) stating that his
aquired 'familiarisation' of a certain aircraft through a simulator/
game would have NO bearing on what sat forefore you on the real
flightdeck and this is where I stepped in to partially agreeing with
MX's views (not his methods of response as others here just talk back
in the same manner). I personally have FSX, a default installation is
pretty **** for aircraft systems and flightdecks to put it bluntly.
The default 747 bears virtually NO similarity to what is on a real 747
flightdeck with hardly anything modelled and most switches having NO
effect. Good quality payware aircraft like PMDG 747-400X HAS a
photorealistic 3D Cockpit which you can look around with the right pc
hardware (TrackIR). Every button, every switch, every panel, every
display on the glass cockpit IS the same as the real one. You can
Google for real images till your heart is content or use the official
Boeing sites or the likes of Airliners.net to compare sim to real.
Most ppl on this forum just denounce it bears ZERO resemblence to the
real flightdecks for which they model yet somehow the Trades
Description Act has yet to be brought in and these Vendor's prosecuted
for 'pretending' they bear a similarity.


You're even more lame than Mxie
