I’m curious what others think because I was thinking recently: “this aircraft” is more awesome, top of the list worthy, than I had previously judged.
And then I realized the other immediate top pick, in my mind, was from the “other” big two aircraft builders.
But it’s related to how they feel and look overall within IF, I thought (including not a small amount: how the 3D cockpit feels, but not limited to…).
Similar here. At first I liked the A350 the most, because of how modern and aesthetically pleasing it is. Then I was even more impressed by the B757’ design and its engines, just to realise that the 777 has a monstrocity fuselage, capacity, the range, the worlds strongest Engines and so on.
Welcome to the community @joeyy !
Yeah, I’m with you on the A350. Actually, I’m with you on the B757 and B777 too.
Sometimes the last aircraft I’ve flown leaves a disproportionate impression. It’s especially hard when one has personal associations with each of those aircraft.
But I have an unforgettable memory of flying test flying the A380 when it was released with the look and feel of the 3D cockpit as feeling especially immersive, but also in relation to the handling.
What surprised me recently, was how the B737Max satisfied as far as 3D cockpit, exterior (including livery matching), and handling. What?: I would like the Max this much to crowd out some other strong candidates?
Just my subjective ramblings.
Thanks for your comment!
The 757 and 321.
The 757 is just awesome. If the fans did not turn pink, it would probably be the only one I use.
777 and 350. You can tell that I usually do long flight. But for sure 737max and 380 have more precise models but they are too big or small to me.
Yeah, good point about distance. I kind of forgot about that criteria when I was lost in the MAX exceeding expectations for 3D cockpit vs exterior and handling.
Seriously though. They both have animated cockpits, which I like, but way too big. I’d honestly like to see some more love towards the private jet world in the future updates
Welcome to the community! Once 787 is published, I believe it will take 777’s place to me.
Welcome to the comminity!
Yeah, a business jet with long haul range would be especially interesting:
To allow nonstop intercontinenral flights between relatively small airfields.
I’d honestly like to see the Global 7500 or g650. I plan to fly those IRL and I’d just like to see what IF can do
Yeah, with that aircraft I was thinking how one could fly from a municipal general aviation airport like Scottsdale in Arizona, non-stop to Singapore, amazing!
I was going to say no one chose the A320 series, but I looked back. One trivial bias I have for the MAX is simply the cockpit view instrument color contrast (not a good stand-alone reason admittedly).
A220 and the B757
