There is a very interesting and revealing "review" / "commentary" about that plane and the development that went into the sim in the latest issue of PC Pilot magazine (July-August 2005 p48-53) by real world Captain of First Choice airlines, David Barrington.

The "upshot" of part of the piece is that he and many other type rated real world pilots now use that plane (and other highly relistic planes) at home to practice some stuff... particulary in preparation for their required simulator sessions / exams.  His general take is that the plane is pretty darn realistic in all of the systems emulated and in the flight characteristis.  Numerous type rated pilots not only hadiinput into it... but did so from the "ground up" (pun intended  Wink).

A quote:

Quote:
"It says it all that my boss has installed 767PIC on his home computer and that the training school is curious about using the Level -D version as a teaching aid for our real world conversions."


Anyway.......... pick up the mag and give it a read... it is a long article and has a lot of info about the real aircraft.

best,

...................john
