FS Berlin has a Dc-4

Russian planes: IL-76 (all standard length ones), Tu-154 and Il-62, Tu-134 and An-24RV&&&&AI flightplans and repaints can be found here

The 727 is a beaty.
And while it might not qualify as a plane from the "Bygone" days, it will recquire lots of old school know how and quite advanced navigation skills.
Basically, it's a modern day jet without the advanced auto-pilot..you don't have auto-throttle nor an Altitude select function, the AP can however maintain a selected altitude, but it's your job to get there

VOR navigation at its finest 8)

If you're able to find one, the Hawker-Siddeley Trident series is (or rather WAS) a great aircraft. The backbone of the British Airways medium hauls during the 70's. Don't know if there is one available for FS though Sad

There's a FSDS Trident 2e by David Maltby at AVSIM - just put 'trident' in the search.

Don't forget the DH Comet also. And the VC-10 - now THERE was a plane!

BAe ATP for FS9 now available! www.enigmasim.com

Besides replacing the CPU fan, try increasing the size of the secondary cooling fan located near the front of the box. Then make sure all fans are installed the right way round.
