I wish they would have chosen the 757 this time, or else make a dual model PIC with two different .airs and 2 differrent models plus the subtle differences in cockpit equipment that really only a type rated person would be able to spot. The 767 is so heavy duty. There is a lot more hub to hub action that happens with the 757. I guess thats why we have 737 NG and now ERJ PIC.

The 757 will be done by PSS, aswell as the 777.
Don't forget Captain Sim will also make a 767, as their new member in the "legendary" series, I really doubt though, that it will be able to match LDS.

Also remember that the 757 is just like a 767 (or so it was told to me) except for some minor changes

Well for the untrained eye it may look like so.
But in reality they are quite different.

While both airfoils are superciritcal, the 757's wingspan is some 10m. shorter. And wings are not as swept back as the 767 (25 vs 31.5 degrees)
The 767 is generally more stable, but is oddly more sensitive to aileron inputs.

They also behave differentially in some autoflight segments, but those are just minor things, really.

O I can just imagine the technical difference between the two but I was just refering to it as a source..since the PSS 757 is not going to be out for 10 months

I had the first Wilco 767 out for Fs2002...I added textures of a 757...it looked nice but when I landed it was a really high flare...and my final approach with full flaps had the nose about 3 to 4 degrees downward
