5.0 out of 5 stars Just as real, August 29, 2008

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

I studied Aerospace Engineering in college. I've found all I wanted from this software. The flight characteristics are extremely real, together the same with the Avionics. However, you'll need a powerful video card to get it work to its full capacity, and the virtual cockpit at night doesn't look as great as the Microsoft version. I would also prefer them to give us a more detailed manual to operate the Flight Management System. Q&A assistance at JustFlight is very helpful. This is not a "computer game", you'll need to plan your trip before making the full use of all the systems.

This review is from: 737 Pilot In Command: Expansion for MS Flight Simulator X/2004 (Video Game)

If you are new to flight simming or have a lot of time in your V logbook this sofeware title is a fun and educational tool for all. It has one of the best documentation publications of any of the add-on titles I own. It explains the operation and function of CDU (FMC) using a setp wise procedure which is easy to follow. Its author, Airline Captain Mike Ray goes over the flight routines for the "737" series 300,400 and 500, so every thing makes sense. There are lot of liveries and tons of realistic working items in the simulation. The folks at Just Flight, Wilcopub and Feelthere have produced a gem of an add-on game for flight simmers. I have several Just Flight titles and they always hit the ball out of the park when it comes to realism and fun. As an avid simmer and Pvt. pilot (slg. eng. land) I recommand this title for any one wanting to have fun and learn some real life lessons regarding flying jet airliners.(from a simmer in a v world) Also, Amazon is a great place to do business when concidering purchases of flight sim software and hardware.

While this product strives for realism in it's 737 300/400/500 series jets, the hardest part is making it stable on your machine. Since it is the only 737 series add-on for FSX (at the moment) I was left with little choice. I have had a lot of fun with it, but not without pulling my hair out as well. After pouring over the support forums it seems to me that the developers really don't care for Vista OS and have a 'funny' attitude towards people that have problems with their product and Vista. If you have the time and patience I would wait for the 'other' add-on people to do their own version... it is in the works.
