PMDG Boeing B747-400

Post by AirBlue »

Here are some shots from Montreal to Toronto (CYUL-CYYZ) of the PMDG B744. The FMC is visible. The aircraft has an original cockpit and is great to fly!

No i dont think so raihan - they just have the B744 and the B737 - also the Beech 1900 - thanks for the comments

Is there anyway to get a PIA livery on this aircraft ?

assalamo aleikum,

there was a livery in PIA colors I will try to get it for you, I can't promise I found it on flightsim or avsim one of the 2

But I have a Q: is the 744 frameratefriendly with the VC model ?

wassalam,

safeer

I know of at least 2 PMDG B747-400 in PIA livery, both of them available at http://www.avsim.com

File names for both the files are as follows:
1) pmdg_piaold_repaint.zip (Wears the 1990s livery)
2) pmdg_pia_repaint.zip (Wears the flag tail livery)

yes it sort of is - as long as you dont zoom out completely - mine works fine till 0.50 of the zoom in VC - but again - i dont have a gaming laptop - its just for regular use

No doubt - PMDG makes the best VC i have ever used

Maybe, as the textures are not being read by FS. I copied and pasted the textures folder in the PMDG aircraft folder, but no joy. Lets see if hit and try helps me eventually!
