He sees to have just come across it.

To think so highly of what, in FS terms is an ancient model, in itself speaks volumes for the quality of Ricks work. B)smk

Yes, and more to the point.. he appears to have got it to install without any issues, something of a rarity in FSX in itself. I wonder if he hasn't come across the bits that don't work properly in FSX yet? :lol:

Kudos to Mr Rick :thumbsup:

The 748 would never have been made if it was not for the CBFS team

So credit to everyone on the Team :welldone:

Sometimes it's okay when things are said repeatedly -
so here's another "well deserved praise" for you, Rick!

And a thank you to all the great repainters too!

Your 748 (still!) is among the very best models in the flight sim world! :thumbsup:
And this review is just another proof for that's a fact!

Cheers & best wishes,
