There is a Hurricane Hunter for FSX that was done by rsgunner. I think it was a J model. It is either at AVSIM or Flightsim.com

I deleted the 767 and the 757, reinstalled 4.4 of the 757. Same problem with VNAV not controlling speed or altitude. Both must be dialed in. I was wrong about dialed in speed not controlling.
Went back to 4.3 of 757. Same VNAV problem. Very strange since VNAV was controlled totally by the fmc before. I uninstalled the 767 and 4.4 757 files so something else is hiding in the background. I would not think it would be fsuipc.:isadizzy:

Me... I bought a flaming four engine jobbie! A Herkiebird. I must be mad! But I am impressed with a plane that I have ridden in as cargo quite often...
I even slept on Harry Secombe's luggage in one of these.
But for all those who think I have gone over to the dark side, fear not! It'll take more than the venerable Herkie bird to convert me...

Anyone got the 727 working in FsX (W7-64 bit here)? It asks me if I should add a module (Captain_sim.p727.menu.dll) to the 'trusted' list, but when I click 'yes' FsX hangs on the loading screen. If I click 'no' FsX will load, I can select the aircraft and then FsX hangs..... :isadizzy:

It does, but not very well from my experience. It also looks a little dated inside for certain.

So there is a framerate hit indeed.
Not sold.
All of my AI is eating up my performance already, so I can't tolerate any framerate hit anymore.
After uninstalling and reinstalling everything VNAV continues to have changed from the previous 757 action. On the reinstalls there were no windows indicating gauge acceptance, so perhaps it is in the gauges that the fmc changes were made so that both the 757 and 767 essentially use the same fmc. Just my guess.
The big change is that VNAV will begin controlling speed and altitude and at some point, perhaps T/D or other point, the VNAV switches off and SPD controls. Now the pilot must dial in any speed change which is then controlled. Speed and Altitude are not controlled simultaneously as with the early 4.3 version of the 757. Instead, once the speed is achieved, a new altitude may be dialed in, and controlled by pressing the V/S button and quickly pressing the VNAV button. One must alternate between dialing in speed and altitude changes manually. Perhaps this is more like normal procedure. Don't know, again just guessing.
Downloaded both the 767 and 727 at midnight and installed this morn. Glad for the cost saving for two very nice aircraft. Liking them a great deal now.

That's not normal procedure...
You should really buy the LDS 767 and try it out. All you should have to do is put in your speeds and altitudes into the FMC and hit VNAV. No switching between things manually or guessing. It should just work. The real life pilots aren't up there pressing random buttons, at least I hope not.
I don't see how so many errors got past CS's testers. In fact I wonder if they test at all.

Not that I know of G. It's no longer supported by Capt. Sim so I don't think they'd even tell you. It's a shame they won't set it up for FSX, it is a nice vride in FS9 just the same. I am a bit partial to the 21 tho, as I ground crew for the real thing every Sunday morning.
Check in my sig for the WoD site and look in the Photo/Video Gallery. There's some good photos there, and videos too. There's a couple of photos of the ground crew at KILG..... I'm the second from the left for the Mig-21 and on the left next to Capt. Joe Gano in the L-39 photo.

Got my 727 installed and running with no problems.
Well I did have a problem with the repaints I also downloaded direct from CS, took me over an hour to get the half dozen I got working as the aircraft.cfg sections for them are a total mess and I practically had to redo them from scratch.
Other than that I love it. Should be fun learning to fly it as my only previous tube experience is with the default 737 and the A2A Strat.

On all the flights I have done with the CS 767, the VNAV and LNAV functions have worked in exactly the same way as the LDS and the Boeing FMC manuals/crib sheets I have. No guessing, no manual changes required. I've never had that problem with the B757 either, although haven't got that installed at the moment.
That's the weirdest part of it all. Some people it works all the time, other people it never works at all...
