    It’s fine in my copy. Do you have any addon scenery installed?

    …Personally, I see nothing wrong with 797, though thatΒ΄s the last available in that series obviously.

    What’s wrong with the Boeing 7107?

    Peugeot did it with the 1007 (Sorry, One-thousand-and-seven. you can’t say “One-double-oh-seven” for obvious reasons pertaining to a series of movies)

    Define…”is great”…?

    I spent Β£600 (Convert to $ as you wish!) and it runs FSX terribly. I know people who spent twice that and it runs acceptably.

    I suppose it depends in whether you want it to look good or not πŸ™‚

    I fear, being 19, I am too young to enter into this topic. However, even over the past few years, I can see just how far Britain has gone downhill.

    Yes, it’s not a resource hog! It’s like Windows XP to Vista, Vista was newer, but didn’t run on low-end PC’s like XP did πŸ™‚

    Again we’re back to limiting destinations to only a few places. If I wanted to fly to New York, I’d have to go to Heathrow, then to Dubai, then to New York. Right?

    To say “I’d only fly on an A380” is preposterous (Sp?) – That’s like saying “I’ll only walk on black pavement” when 99% of the pavement in your locality is grey paving slabs!

    In that case, next time I fly on American to ORD from Manchester, I’ll request an A380!

    All you’ve done is prove the point of the passenger knows nothing, did hey really think they could “request” an aircraft for a flight?

    Not sure if that question was directed at me or the OP, but I’ll give my answer! Because I have about 100FPS in FS9, to have those setting in FSX I get…ermmm…12 πŸ™‚

    FSX has stunning graphics if you turn them up, but you need a powerful processor, a lot of memory and a fast graphics card to run it!

    I spoke with an Australian couple who were flying on an A380 for the first time and they said that they would always request the type in the future.

    I’m going to try that next time to fly with BMI to Heathrow! After all, the A388 is quieter than an A319! :confused:

    [QUOTE=PMN;1704671Incidentally stretching the upper deck on the 747 had an unexpected advantage – it improved aerodynamics and increased the cruise speed slightly, so maybe the further stretch of the 747-8 has its advantages aerodynamically.[/QUOTE]
    If they keep going they’ll have the first super-cruise capable airliner then!

    The -400 can reach .93 if needs be, .889 usually, so I can’t wait for the -8I’s (Now stands for “Incredible”, by the way!) figures.

    Paris should be good, if it comes (The -8F will do!)

    If I am flying long-haul, I will only go by A380

    How on earth have you got around the plants for the past 50-odd years previous?!

    Paul, I agree with you analogy 100%, shame the damn thing looks so ugly! (The -100 at least had a nice look to it!)

    Yes, it does.

    Looks something like this, too.
