747-200/300 Series for FSX and FS2004 is scheduled for release in 2008 as an addition to our growing F-Lite range. This new add-on will be released as both a Download and on DVD-ROM, and will feature highly detailed versions of the regular, combi and cargo 747-200/300 models.

The 747 is probably the most recognised airliner in the world, with its distinctive hump on the forward fuselage which houses the cockpit as well as the upper passenger deck.

Having been in service since the 1970s there can't be many air travellers who haven't flown long distance in this icon of the airways.

The experts at CLS (Commercial Level Simulations) have worked their magic to design superb models of the 747 in both the -200 and -300 variants, and included in this package are a massive 67 liveries from around the world along with different flight models for the different versions. As well as being superbly modelled, these aircraft are also great to fly without have to learn and operate complex procedural systems.

The panels will feature full analogue Pilot, Co-Pilot and Flight Engineer panels, as well as the overhead panel, throttle quadrant and radio stack. The Flight Engineer's station has expanded pop-ups for easier viewing.

A limited function F-Lite FMC allows for SIDs and STARs in the Flight Simulator database, Radio and Navigation frequency entry, V-speed calculation, 'direct to' waypoint features, progress display, estimated fuel on board and more.

Looks great from the pics Martyn, but a) i have not flown with a 742/3 so dont really find "the need" to fly one! (i only buy addons that i have flown on before, or are going to fly on)
b) F-Lite version IMO is not all too good on the 2D panel or sounds (A340-500/600). Would maybe buy it, as it does look good, but only about 50% atm.
 
Would it be possible to make the 744 from Justflight, but made the same way as the 737PIC? I think 737 is the best addon around at the moment, and it would be awesome to be able to stroll around the cabin in a 744! Just an idea Tongue

Looks good Martyn!
 
I have never flown on any 747 but have the 747-200 RFB so I'm buying this!

Looks like a nice product.  It says 'limitted function FMC - AFAIK the 742/3 didn't have an FMC it had an INS?  That leads me on to my next question, like the DC-10 CLS product, would it be possible instead of the limitted FMC to embed the CIVA INS system into the panel so you have a more realistic fully functional INS?

Have you seen the PMDG 747-400?  That's a bit like the 737PIC in terms of level of detail and accuracy.
Kind regards,
Tom

I have, but i hear its a bit of a Frame eater Cry Also fairly pricey, where-as Justflight more often than not are cheaper and better!

I think you mean 742/3 Wink
 
Also, excuse me if I'm totally wrong, but what is the deal with JustFlight and other companies models/ aircraft?
Like could JF actually edit the 742 to have a cabin?
Or do you borrow CLS's models, or any other companies for that matter or what!?
Just always interested me to know!
Best Regards,
Kelvin Chilvers-Jones

We are a publisher as well as developer. We publish products that CLS/Captain Sim etc develop as well as developing our own(Rescue Pilot/Traffic/Flying Club etc)

We don't normally 'edit' other developers work but we do add our own bits and bobs

Cool, so for example if you didn't like the idea of a 742 fmc you might change it to an INS nav?
Or by bits and bobs do you mean stuff like liveries etc?

Ok!
Thanks MartynSmile
 
Just wondred, what's the advantages of say this compared to the 747-200 ready for pushback?
Apart from the 300 model and fsx support/compatability?

It looks much more detailed than the Ready For Pushback one.  As far as I'm aware the Ready For Pushback one featured some default FS gauges in the cockpit, it looks as though this one uses all custom made ones to better replicate the real world classic Jumbo!
Kind regards,
Tom

Great shots! I hope the CLS 747-200/300 has a VCabin, as I use F1 View to see the cabin!
