You should try my New FSX True Model Boeing727

Got it sorted out now!!! I had to delete all the installs of the 727........go figure.

Thanks, :woot:

Wow! What a fantastic plane! I always wanted a good freeware 727 for FS. This one is nice. And check out the FSX 707-420 they have there. If anything, it has a nicer VC than the 727. Awsome! Oh, and for those wondering what happened to the 727 co-pilot babe, she apparantly got transferred to the 707 squadron!

Been flying that bird for awhile now--
Great to fly!

He does a great job with every release
 
Just downloaded and started to fly it. the Autopilot is described as quirky- Anyway, i've found how to select and change heading and speed. I can't see how to do the altitude. ( nor where the APP button is ) . I could use the Boeing 737 panel which I can bring up, but I'd like to do it the 727 way.
Can someone enlighten me please?
TIA

I'm pretty sure the AP Mode Selector has Heading, VOR, APP, and BC positions. The plane only has an Altitude Hold. You can set the Alerter for your desired altitude and it'll let you know when you're within 1000 ft. When you reach your disired altitude just click on the Altitude Hold. Make sure the Master AP switch on the radio stack in ON.

Very nicely done Alejandro! Modelling and painting excellent but I can't comment on the FM as I never fly jet tubeliners.:ernae:

futureb717makingfuselage.jpg
for a better one, And none of them will have the female copilot ,I have receve Too many emails people complaining about it.
People doesn't like it .
In the case of the 707 which is a true FSX model there won't be any change exept to remove the female copilot from the VC

Thanks you all for given me a welcome here and for apresiating my work ,this encourage me to make them better..

Alex
 
I'm glad your'e here. Not many people are willing to make aircraft this complicated for free. I guess the spirit of MSFS is still alive.:friday:
 
Jim

Thanks for that. And thank you Alejandro for the plane.

There's a fully-functional 737 autopilot "pop up" window..

EDIT : OOPS I mis-read your post... sorry *blush*
 
you can all laugh at me, today i realized i was flying the wrong model. today i uninstalled that one and installed this one.

it's pretty nice, but i have yet to land it without breaking the gear.
this one works far better than the other one that i mistook for this one. :applause:

You're in good company.. Many a real pilot landed them hard too.. even had a few fall out of the sky on approach.. That's the "feel" I was trying for, when I did the flight dynamics. The 727 has to be flown by the numbers.. Tube pilots of the day flew them a little too much by the seat of their pants, until new procedures were mandated.

Watch that airspeed like a hawk.. use only the last notch of flaps when you're sure you have the runway made.. This will mean holding some extra thrust for a good part of the final approach, too.. It's a little challenging, for sure.. but realistic.
 
that is exactly what i did wrong!!!! :applause:

funny, you hit the bull'seye 1st time!

i have a question though

is there something i can do with the sound? i can't hear the atc because it becomes like a wisper when i fly this plane. i tried to adjust the sliders but they had no effect

haww the sounds.....

I was going to make a new ones ,but Linus Osorio the guy who made the gauges for this plane told me not to,some people like it ,but they're so annoying,.. all I can say its to lower the sliders of the Sounds environment and engines to 5% (I did it just for this plane) or you can replace it for the B737 sounds my friend...sorry
