I expect the Ariane 737 would be up there ... Would be interesting to know though ! Presume you're just talking software add-on aircraft ?

Erm, which I own BTW and never use...yes, software.
EDIT: FS9 version which was perhaps a bit less than the current 85 pounds!

breath of life left in the just-about-to-become-obsolete flight simulator.

Heck! its only money and the way i knocked myself around this last week , hells 'you only live twice'

now where did i hear that !

The Most Expensive Package , you may be right Charl with the AlphaSim C17 .. really very basic for its NZ81.$s , least the Captsim shows class and that,s every model .

Following Tony and his followup post , his 727 and dang the expense would course Captain Sim , PMDG , LevelD , A2A , Vertigo no hesitation

Above is the reason why .

Pocket change. The Majestic Q300 Training edition is 199 euros, that's between NZ$ 340 and 350 depending on who you ask.

Top that !

Well the Version 1.1 has been released - The Captain Sim Boeing 707 , well walked away from another Simon

Be ideal to try and put into Queenstown

Ian - love that shot of Equatoriana! That's the livery of the 707 aircraft that we flew into Quito on in 1979! Ah, memories...

by **Charl** » Sat Oct 02, 2010 8:26 am

John, Oprah, meet Ian...Captain of the Sim.
Whew that is a beautiful model...I am so tempted.
Early SAA livery won a design award, rightly so.
Was Ecuatoriana the first edition of the "vomit Comet"??

More so from the piloting than the paintwork!

Pete , This 707 is a real joy , the noise - the operation off the auto pilot ,

i was starting to fly it like the "vomit Comet" since i crashed every thing last week the yoke needed to be recaliabrated .

Charl , many photos show the old PAN AM parked up in Auckland , many other paints with this and they are all highly detailed , yet to explore the cabin and views , typical CS quality .

Given CS has - how can I put this - less than 100% commercial bedside manner

it's a tribute to how good their models are, that they are still in business!
More pictures please, PanAm especially.
I may still have a little 45rpm 7 single vinyl disk, imprinted with a photo of Jet Clipper 101, which is a recording of radio chatter into Idlewild International Airport.
You have to be of a certain age, even to know where that is...

Chari , i do have a few issues with ' less than 100% commercial bedside manner ' a Yak , F104 yeah .. must try that again , .. Idlewild International Airport.
