Would that be the card again Graham?I won't be bothering 'cos I have had plastic surgery.
For $9.99 you can't go wrong but I have the 737-200 series from them and although good I hardly fly it now.

Re: Capt. Sim----
Thanks for the heads-up, Graham. I can't think of anything I want this time round. It's a pity they haven't made the Boeing 707 P3D-compatible yet. By the way, I recommend the 727.

Re: Capt. Sim----
I'm sure I've read (and read today) that the 707 will work in P3D but it needs the fs9.exe (maybe the FSX.exe too) in the P3D root folder. Exactly how compatible it is, I've no idea.

Re: Capt. Sim----
I did try it Dave, but the frame rates went through the floor - 3 or 4 fps ! I see there are some updates to the 707 that I've missed, so maybe I'll give it another try, but I'd really like a proper P3D version.

Re: Capt. Sim----
Rgr that mate. I always found the 707 a frame monster in FS9.. better when the VC was hexed out but still heavy. Didn't care much for the custom AP code either. While authentic in operation, you couldn't fly the model to an FS generated flightplan using all 3 AP channels which made long distance flights on the VA impossible. For this reason, it turned out to be a waste of money.. one of the many
