Just a few shots showing off the details on CS's latest (final open beta for now) release. Still a few bugs to iron out and some features to fully implement, but it's already promising to be their most detailed model yet.











Some close ups showing the work on the finer details :






(notice the 3D passenger model looking out the window...)




(now with fully animated thrust reversers)

And as usual with CS, a whole lot of useless but pretty cool ground animations :







But pictures do not convey the aspect of this new release I'm most impressed by : The sounds. The JT8D finally gets the sound it deserves.

The plane itself handles as I would expect it to. I still need to get the hang of it, for now it brings me back to the old days of taming the 727 (and crashing a lot as a result of my failure )

Cheers

Nico

Nice! I love the -200. Such a nice looking plane. Captain-sim did a great job on this one.

Thanks. Not meant to be beauty shot, but it's hard to take a bad picture with a CS plane biggrin (although I see Photobucket had some fun re-sizing my pics again...) . I love the 737's looks, but don't they get uglier as they get longer ?

Cheers

Wasn't too interested in this until now.

The cockpit looks great, perhaps a fun change of pace from the PDMG 737

Nice shots! The 737 also flies crappier as they get longer. The -200 hand flew like a dream.

Makes me pine for my youth. ;-)
