New B777-200ER

[SteelBlades]

XPJets is close to bringing a state-of-the-art Boeing 777-200ER to market (Version 3 of XPJet's 777) - a major upgrade from earlier versions. With a full compliment of features, this aircraft will please even the most demanding simmer. The aircraft is available in about 25 liveries, but most importantly, it's available in Air New Zealand colours (ZK-OKE in fact).

Key features include 3D cockpit, fully animated engines (including reversers) plus the three different engine types, along with fully animated gear, flaps and spoilers. As well it has very high res' graphics. Possibly the feature many will be most intrigued by is wing-flex. As the aircraft strikes turbulence, the wings flex. The heavier the aircraft is, the more the wings curve up to the tips. The x737 by Benedikt Stratmann has shown the way, now XPJets show they can do it too.

Enough talk, let's see what this version 3 looks like:

I think between the XP in XPJets, the links to the x737 site (which is clearly for X-Plane) and your comment, it's probably covered now.
