While SAX may sometime replace it's B747 fleet, that's not happening anytime soon. I foresee more B747 passenger and cargo flights for the immediate future.

World's Most Profitable Flights: This Airline Route Makes $1 Billion Annually

Guess we need passenger service flights between San Francisco and New York Kennedy and Los Angeles and KJFK. Perhaps we should add one more New York to London flight. How about on a B747?

New Freeware Scenery for Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, KPHX

New freeware scenery for Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (KPHX) is available in Avsim. It isn't as good as the Flight Beam Studios payware scenery, but it's the best freeware available.

You must register in Avsim to download.

For P3D
For FSX

Thank you Jim. I see Quality Wings sells a B787 for FSX only. The're working on the P3D4 version. TDS (a freeware group) has a B787, but don't know how good it is.

Re: Aircraft Upgrades

Hello Jim, We often discuss adding airplane types. For each airplane type we first look for good quality freeware and payware models for the simulators we support. We then talk about whether a new aircraft type would replace an existing type and what could be potential flights. We also try to keep t...

Re: Scenery Loading Causes Stutters in P3dV4

Assuming the problem started after installing the ORBX products, consider: 1. If you have a regular hard drive, defrag it. Do not defrag an SSD drive. 2. Look at these steps offered by Lockheed-Martin. 3. You could uninstall/reinstall the P3D4 client following the steps here . Consider also deleting...

Re: Scenery Loading Causes Stutters in P3dV4

Peter, does this happen with a specific scenery or with all scenery? Asking because there's a scenery loading setting for FS DreamTeam scenery.

New A320 and E19x Flights

Fellow Captains,

Just in case you missed it, we've just added 44 A320 flights out of Zurich and 32 E19x flights out of Zurich and Geneva. Will be adding more A320 flights out of Geneva next. Hope you enjoy them. I see SAX741 is already at it. :D

Re: Level-D 767 Ported to P3D

Peter,

So, how does it work with the ORBX scenery? Do you have ORBX Vector? I forgot to mention the A320. I have the Aerosoft A320 which isn't available yet for P3D4. I'm sure Majestic will convert their Dash8.

Sorry. There's a tool that may be helpful. See here, but let me caveat that with saying that we are not endorsing that tool nor provide support. I don't really know if it would work.
