Hey Adam,

I find that the default panel you guys put in the fleet 777 pretty limited. There is a great panel at POSKY for the 777. But I had problems trying to get the gauges working. (772LR). SO I just gave up.

Is it possible for you put that panel in the fleet installer and have Luke update the 777 installer for us 777 drivers?

Thanks. smile

Adam,

Also, can you put the 772LR in the fleet 777?

You can try the Wilco package. It is a very advanced airframe package for the 777, but once you understand it, it's great!

I have tried the wilco 777 and to me they didnt put there all in it! The thing that gets me the most is how it doesnt fly on the line! i know a lil ocd but hey it doesnt. second the fmc is horrible. Especially at calculating speeds for landing. Vnav is not that great but this is my opinion i would have to admit i have been spoiled with pmdg and level d!

For FSX, you are out of luck when it comes to the 777. The Wilco 777 is a "fleet" aircraft, so its dumbed down and pretty much useless if you are looking for a realistic experience.
