June 4Jun 4 For those who like flying the Guppy, it looks like FlyJSim's version 4 will be released soon. I haven't flown one since the Tin Mouse in FS9. Might be worthwhile.

June 5Jun 5 AH the Tin Mouse now there is a whole set of old sim memories. The 737-100 was a real pocket rocket with the gravel kit so originally Boeings version of a small heavy capable of going in and out of dirt runways around the globe hence the stone guards - no doors for the UC etc. 200 just got a bi fatter.
June 5Jun 5 I loved the 737-100 and 200 Airfix and Aurora kits :-) back in the late 70s of the last Century.

June 5Jun 5 Seems Q8 got himself an advance copy to do a promo. 737-100/200 conceptualised 1964 out the door to the customers in 67-68. You can move 100 sods 1500nm, Still
Friday at 01:53 AM3 days Thought about it in the meantime as one cannot get enough Boeings so decided to get the FF Boeing 757 as it was the NG replacement for the 727 in its day. FJS will have to wait awhile maybe about 3 months before I think about it again.

Still getting regular updates.I kinda giggle every time I see the angst on the other forum About the pending Bluebird iteration. 😂Edit: fwiw, I’m holding off, as well. Too many new releases for me to keep up with: DCS F-100, DCS Tomcat “advanced”, IL2 Korea, plus all the other recent addon purchases. But I’ll get around to it in good time🤙 Edited Friday at 02:03 AM3 days by UrgentSiesta
Friday at 03:51 AM3 days Well so far quite happy with the FF757, A really interesting Boeing being that first iteration of the NG aicraft by Boeing. As I understand it the 757 was positioned as a 727 replacement - same seat capacity, range and general performance but with the NG systems and layout, Two engines as opposed to 3 but hey it is too the high Flight Factor standards Sure someone will want to disagree. Did not get many out the door to regular operators but I am sure Boeing leant on a few to tickle the order book. Not sure about the Trump skin but hey the Trump has stuck with his 757 for a long time, so it must work, be cheap to operate and a reliable ride.

United Airlines alone is still flying 60 of them today.In any case - agree that the FF 757 is an enjoyable addon!
