beautiful but not a useful piece of simware. Heavy FPS loss... apparently.

FSX = Very bad FPS

FS9 = Ok FPS


PMDG always do a great A/C but I don't think it is due any time soon

I dont know if the 757 has a FMS or not. If it doesnt, I would wait or get something that does. Btw, Happy Bday Bluebird

I don't think it has as advanced systems as some other airliners you can get on the flightsim market, for example the PMDG 737s/747s or the Wilco 737 classics

Happy Birthday Bluebird B-) ...... for what sim FS9 or FXS ?
I posted a few screenshot of the CS75 as it is a powerful frate user . I have a maybe 80 % top line for FS with 8800GXT card , there is some noticeable change using this model :( All my PMDG's have run smooth , 747 better than the LD767 , Their MD11 will be interesting .

The PSS 757 does have a FMS and all the extras (TCAS, WX Radar etc etc) ;) .

Yea, or the PSS 777 as well - so much choice with these Boeing models eh. :P

Its probably a good idea to have a look around all these websites (wilco.com | phoenix-simulation.co.uk | captainsim.com etc) to see which one looks the best to you. ;)

I have the Wilco 777, It is NOT PIC is in between the default FSX aircraft and A PMDG, PIC 737 / A32X ect. Also the model is not great , not bad but not great.

If you don't have it already the Wilco 737 is (I think) the best FS aircaft out there (along with the PMDG 747 and L-D 767) ( the patch for FSX will be done soon)



Regards, Scott

Go With PSS 757, I have CS and PSS, I use PSS 1000x out of 1000, CS = 0 times lol (In otherwords, I think its rubbish- FPS wise!)
