There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Microsoft just replaced the a whole lot of aircraft, i geuss that is the same as it always has been. Probably a logical choice, since there already had a 737 and a 747, the 777 is in and between, so they replaced it with the airbus.

Don't mean to pick, but the 747 is sort of in the middle. Tongue

In between a two engined short haul and a two engined long haul? Yes. I'd say the 747 fit's nicely between those two. Grin

They probably replaced the 777 because it wasnt the most popular default plane. Just use the MelJet 777, it should work fine
