Feelthere 175/195 (Read 650 times)

I saw the Feelthere ERJ175/195 in the Justflight sale and thought I'd treat my self.

I've now got the Feelthere ERJ175/195, QW757, Carenado 152 and the amazing VRS Superbug.
I'm impressed with the ERJ175 so far it's very complex though! Well beyond the complexity of the QW 757.
I was worried it would kill my frame rates but to my suprise it runs at high FPS that any of the other  payware aircraft I have.

The only downside I've found so far is that parts of the VC could be prettier and more detailed but that's all.

I feel like I've got quite a good payware fleet now but can't help but think I'm missing a long haul aircraft.
I have the ERJ for regional flights, the QW757 for medium hall flights but I don't have anything for long haul.
It seems there is a gap in the market here, of course there's the PMDG 747 but I couldn't run that on my system and the CLS A330/340 isn't complex enough.

Does anyone have any suggestions of purchases I could make to fill this gap?

Anyway here's the ERJ175 by Feelthere.

Thanks for looking  Smiley

It's not long haul though. And you need a i7 to get anywhere above 15fps with it. My i3 couldn't run it at that speed and anything less that 15fps isn't worth playing.

I'm running a dual core Pentium, with REX and everything on Medium High, and I'm getting about 10+ in the VC.  I would go with the Captain Sim 767.

And trust me, I run the 747 on the same set up and I'm getting around 20 in the VC, full cockpit settings

I had it on my old intel dual core imac, and it ran fine with good fps. Ive yet to plop it on my i5 mac but its a fantastic 747. The LevelD 767 might be worth a look, also.

The feelthere A330 series is also a sound investment if you want to take the airbus route, also complemented by the A320 -  I have both, fly them regularly and can vouch for them Smiley

How about Level-D 767?  It's very good.
