Calling Bone

Just looking at some of the pics it seems OK. The EICAS synoptic pages looked about right, but you can't really tell much by a still shot since they normally show systems data as it changes. At least the overhead panel is intact, unlike the default panel which is missing some things. The real plane has more MFD pages than what they had screen shots for, and it looks like they added the FSX GPS moving map display...which is usefull in FSX, but the real plane doesn't have it, lol.

I may purchase it and try it out, but it'll be next week before I'm able to mess around with FSX.
 
There's a single review for this one at simMarket, which is a 1 star from early 2008, complaining:

"It is a shame that this panel is incomplete... you can see through the dash at night with lights on, the VS knob goes crazy after takeoff, the VC has missing gauges and the lcd are black.... all in all this panel is a mess. I have e-mailed for support on these issues with no replies. I have learned my lesson with NPSIMPANELS and will never purchase from again...."

To me, that sounds like a major install issue and/or missing textures, but beyond that, I can't comment. It does look very interesting, though. I quite like the default CRJ, but the default panel and avionics are definitely its main weakness.

Mind you, I have the ISG1 FMC set and have never installed that for the CRJ. Probably should, before complaining about default avionics. ;)
 
I have there 737 panel and have no grips. Works wonderful in the Default 737 and even the Tin Mouse 737-200 Port over. Im like Bone waiting till next week, then im going to buy the CRJ. FSX needs a quality CRJ badly like a Dash 8 series. In RW I don't fly as passenger unless its Bombardier or Boeing 737.
