Just as we were talking about it, POSKY splits up and members start to regroup.
Everybody is aghast, but of course, life goes on, witness Project AI and the good that eventually came of its many woes.
I just hope the 787 does make it out as an FS9-also project in some form.

Meantime...this ANZ paint popped up on their excellent B777-300.
Has it been delivered yet? it's due around now IIR.
Not too sure about the new livery without the Wave

Great model, lots of attention to detail.
See how the ailerons droop together with flaps out

It tends to fly nose-up, and approaches nose-down while flying straight past the localiser!
I always end up manually landing the thing.
Maybe the New Group will finally sort the FDE

Awesome screenshots. I miss the wave as well. Its a shame they are removing it.

...............................................[Looking at the length of the 300 made me think , ......... maybe they should try this mid 1980s idea

..........................................................A = North Island - B = South Island

I've seen that picture! just can't quite place it.

But, you know, there will be this really big guy, totally blocking the aisle roughly midpoint over Cook Strait, insisting he jam his oversize hand baggage into the overhead locker, but it won't quite fit...

Charl , Air International Volume 27 , a combined yearly issue ... but year , maybe biking lanes through it

As for that big boy , not sure he,d get done that 15 mile walk getting him half way without a lotta pushing ... just think tho the fuel bill saved

Cheers Alister, if I'd known that, I might've gone round and done it again...without the little bounce!

How did you find this out?

by **NZ255** » Sun Nov 28, 2010 5:10 pm

Cowpatz is a ANZ 747 pilot

As I said...life goes on, and it does so at the FSPro Site whose name I also find more palatable than the old.
A portent I hope of great things yet to come.

Your screenshots made me want to install that 777

so ...

All looks pretty good so far! Which 3D cockpit did you install? Is there an FMC for this one?

by **Charl** » Tue Dec 07, 2010 7:26 am

Bearing in mind mine is an FS9 install...the VC comes with the model - if you know which bits to put in.
Having said that, "building" a POSKY plane requires a measure of patience I don't usually have, so I usually go looking on AVSIM or wherever for a repaint that also includes a fully-blown model with updates and VC.
Then I install the repaint of choice over that.
There's no functional FMC, I don't know of any freeware one.

The FDE is also slightly dicky, I've just downloaded the Version "G" update from the FSPro site, perhaps it works at last.
