• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Commercial 747...?

Which 747 model are you thinking about?
There aren't really any good pre 400 models out there for FSX.
The CLS 200/300 is a lite model, but depending on what level of complexity you want it is pretty ok.

The best I think still is the PMDG 747-400. It is getting a bit dated, and a v2 is underway, which you might want to wait for. This v2 is also supposed to include the -8 models in an expansion pack.

Another option is the newly released ifly 747-400. I have not tried it but their previous release the 737 was pretty good. Though not as good as PMDG.

Thanks for the information and links. I have high regard for PMDG and will look into the v2 development.
