I forgot, does the 737 gone out and DEAD ? (in spite of the coming 3D cockpit , Heiko working hardly on it). Wasn't it said that the 737 was the most popular. i have nothing against the 787 the model is great, but the real one has not so many hours. I vote to keep the 737 Regards -- Gérard http://pagesperso-orange.fr/GRTux/ << Less i work, better i go >> ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
