Does anyone know why the JustFlight boxed version of the Wilco 737 is £21 whilst the actual Wilco one is £30?

Technically when sales dropped prices dropped to.  They just never updated their site and people overcharge too, I guess! Grin

I'm guessing that Justflight buys them in bulk at a substantially cheaper rate than what we pay for a single copy, and then when sales slow down or need a boost, they can afford to knock a bit off the MSRP and make it look like a great deal.

Whereas the Wilco site one is more aimed at the newbie payware buyer who doesn't know they can get it cheaper at places like justflight or the pilotshop and such.

For JustFlight version it says "For FS2004 and FSX." but for Wilco version it says "For FSX.". Probably a mistake.

Is it any good?

I wouldn't say it's great, but it's ok... just too bad it's only 300/400/500, and we still need to wait for PMDG's 737NG X.

PMDG 737NG was my favourite airplane in FS9... ever! I can't wait for the FSX version. That's why I didn't buy any 737 for FSX so far.

The interior model is amazing.  The exterior well, could use work
