PMDG Aircraft

Recommended Posts

I am looking to buy a good quality aircraft and am looking at the PMDG 737 8/9. $70 sounds like a fair price for quality.. is it as good as advertised?Thanks

It has the most features I've ever seen in an FSX addon. It will tax your system a bit though - recommend a recently built system...And I'm a general aviation flyer most of the time - just buy it!

Thanks guys, will pull out the old debit card tonight. Just rebuilt the gaming PC and put on 64 bit windows. When loading FSX it defaulted to all sliders maxed out. I think the PMDG should be ok, I meet or exceed all of the reccommendations on their website.

Yea, the NGX is the pinnacle of payware aircraft, IMHO...at least until their 777 comes out. ;D

I am looking forward to getting this. I assume that I can move the default 737's out of FSX and into a temp dir for safe keeping. I hope the 777 comes soon, but will get the 747 too while waiting.

It's a world apart from any other payware aircraft, save maybe the 377 from Accusim, which comes close. The J41 is also a fine addon, with FS2Crew, i might be tempted to say i enjoy the J41 more than the NGX.

I would also endorse ANY PMDG addon, especially the J41 & NGX.The NGX has, in my opinion, raised the bar SO high in FSX, that I don't see how any other developer could match it any time soon.

Its a great plane, def one of the best tubeliners. Almost as good as the Maddog!
Although I agree there are a few areas where the Maddog is nicer, such as the config/route planner and multi-crew, there are many areas where the NGX surpasses the Maddog, particularly in the visuals, performance, and documentation, and if I could only have one it would be the NGX. Still, considering the age of the Maddog, it is quite a compliment to say that it still competes with the NGX. Both I believe are essential airliners for FSX.

A handful of developers just off the top of my head that are definitely on par with or depending on your simming style exceed PMDG.Leonardo, VRS, A2A, Dodosim and FSLabs just to name a few.Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkJB Edited by Buzz313th

The same to me. Every other plane I have looks somehow poor against it. It totaly makes you addict to it.
