LEVEL-D 767 FSX/FS2004 - 4.5 out of 5
The Level-D 767 is indeed for both fsx and fs2004. This aircraft has tons of features that enhances your flight simulation exprerience enough to make you think and feel like an actual pilot. The 767 has a realistic FMC(flight management computer), extremely realisctic aircraft systems sucha as a full TCAS logic, Aural alerts, Realistic AFDS, and failiures that can be triggerd by rough handling of the aircraft. You can communicate with basically everybody that the actual pilots could communicate with. You can even contact the cabin. If you put the aircraft temperature too high or too low, you will most likely get a call from the cabin indicating the complaints of the passengers. This plane even has RAT deployment animation. However there are some flaws to this aircraft such as the location of some buttons that makes them unclickable.
This aircraft is just awesome. Every aspect and button on this plane is CLICKABLE! You can interact with eveything in the cockpit even the books on the shelf. you can stroll through the cabin as well. It has a complete IRS system and the aligning time is realistic. Unlike some aircrafts this one has auto-start so if you can't figure out how to do it manually just press Ctrl+E. this aircraft can also do an automatic crosswind landing even in the strongest winds. the sound set that this aircraft comes with is just amazing along with the detail of the aircraft itself. This aircraft is truely all you need to enjoy a 747.
This scenery does enhance the looks in fsx very well. However it only covers bridges, roads and rail roads. this does not make the grass mesh of make the mountains look better. This scenery has an outstanding night lighting effect. This addon does indeed have an area that lets you adjust the quality of effects. You can set the settings to figure out which is best for your computer. Over all it does not take away many frame rates from your computer. If you use this with bloom it looks ultimatly realistic. This addon also enhances the look of beaches and river fronts.
This is the ultimate scenery enhancement. If you have a PC that can handle the amount of environmental enhancements that this product delivers, you would not want to get off your pc. WARNING! This product may cause your wife or girlfriend to be mad at you if you stay on for more than 12 hours. This scenery covers everywhere on the globe. It just focuses greatly on certain areas of the world such as USA and Canada. This makes the ground textures extremely detailed, mountains look awesome as well. as always the night lighting is even better. dont beleive me? fly over Vegas(klas) and look out your window, then you would see what i'm talking about. It covers all seasons and it has perfectly aligned autogen. everything in this scenery package looks super detailed and photo-realistic. If you combine Ground Environment with Ultimate Terrain you will have a remarkable flighgt simulator experience.
X-PAX - 4.8 out of 5
This addon is a an immitation of Fspassengers for fs2004. the only difference this time is that this one is fsx compatible! Finnaly something to make you feel like you are actually carrying 209 lives in a 737. This version has streaming video of what happens at the gate during boarding, take-off, cruise and landing. You also hear your passengers scream if your vertical speed is to high. this addon package features many things that you can toy around with. Hard landings reduce the satisfaction of the passengers by alot so try not to kill em. however X-pax is not as good as Fspassengers. There are some problems with the annoucements when you are in IFR mode. even if you stay leveld for 2 seconds they will announce that we are currently cruising so it's ok to unfasten your seatbelt
World Airports 2
World airports 2 is no doubt worth paying for, what i mean is you sometimes come accross certain addons which you pay for, then you never use it again. The case here however, is very different. I wan's sure what to expect from world airports 2 but i have to say, I'm satisfied. Not only do you get an airport vehicle to drive around in, but the included airports are very detailed and i'm sure you won't be dissapointed.
Commuter Airliners
Again, we have something worth paying for, although I only saw the FS2002 edition, if that's anything to go by, the FS2004 edition is brilliant. I live close to Stansted Airport, and I've seen it enought times to know if someone has made a poor attempt at re-creating it. But Commuter Airliners' Stansted airport was very detailed, and very accurate. the aircrafts included are also very satisfactory, and I'd definatly reccomend it!
Concorde (FS 2002 / FS 2004 addon)
Here we have something I don't reccomend. It's another one of those products you wouldn't even want to download for free, just terrible. although it has realistic panels and effects, the only thing you get for your money is 1 aircraft with 2 variants. The flight dynamics are wrong. Not reccomended.
