Boeing 787 Dreamliner gives you the opportunity to pilot
one of the biggest and most exciting passenger airliners in
the world. With more than 400 of them on order now from airlines
around the world, the Boeing 787 looks to be a true 'next
generation' aircraft. Although not scheduled to enter service
until 2008, Boeing's latest offering will carry 300 passengers
up to 8,000 miles at Mach .85. Its high-tech design will also
make it the most fuel efficient jetliner in the world...
Millions
of passengers each year traverse the globe using many of the
major airlines. Now you too can join the airliner service
by piloting one of the biggest and most exciting air-passenger
planes in the world - the new Boeing 787 Dreamliner - before
it's even flying commercially. The game's developer,
Abacus, has painstakingly recreated the Boeing 787 Dreamliner
for FS2004 and FSX users to give them some idea
of what this new aircraft's cockpit will look like, how the
engines will sound, and how well the aircraft will handle
in the air.
The
new Boeing 787 is designed to carry close to 300 people
a distance of up to 8,500 nautical miles. In addition to the
outer aircraft and various liveries, there is a full 3D virtual
cockpit. The special instrumentation includes a customised
Flight Management Computer (FMC) similar to what is found
in the real thing and complete easy-to-follow documentation
to learn how to use it. The FMC works with the Flight Simulator's
built-in Flight Planner and allows you to fly virtually hands-off
except for takeoff and landing. This package also includes
a series of flights for you to fly that represent authentic
passenger routes and schedules.
Liveries
include: Icelandair; All Nippon Airways; Boeing House Colours;
Sucaba; Lynx Airways VA; Air Florida VA; Pinellas VA; Air
Tampa; LSA VA; West Wind Airlines VA; Fly UK VA; Noble Air
VA; Atlantic Skies VA; and Boeing 787 Paint Kit with blank
textures.
While
this release shows all the attention to detail that Flight
Sim fans have come to know and love from developers Abacus,
the fact that only one plane is available in this release
makes it a rather expensive investment, but one that I'm sure
die-hard fans will find worth splashing out for.
