  1. To all those who entered this contest, good luck! What is your favorite aircraft to add-on we reviewed in the past twelve months? I never created an account here before but I always read the reviews. The review I chose was for my favorite aircraft: The 777 Worldliner. There are multiple reviews and previews here, but I enjoyed reading all of them. Why? Reading a review is like getting your questions answered by a friend. The review for this aircraft addresses [like every other review] not only the looks, the interior, and the exterior of the aircraft, but the function as well. The FMS, the features, ground services, and especially the experience flying it. When I read a review I don't want it to advertise the product too much, which is precisely what happens most of time, but I want to know how it handles, the features, the system, I want to learn the experience of someone who has flown it, who can honestly tell me whether or not I should purchase this, or download this. That is exactly what I get from X-Plane Reviews. Reliability. Flying the Boeing 777 Worldliner, my favorite aircraft in the real world and X-Plane. Congratulations on a successful first year!

  2. Hello X-Plane Reviews! Congratulations on one year of great add-on reviews! Of all your reviews, I must say that my favorite review of your is the 747-8, mainly since it is one of my all time favorites. The author put in a great balance of information and visuals that give a the reader a great idea of they're buying along with the pros and cons. The first few paragraphs explaining the history of this graceful bird really gave me a sense of her long and storied history. It also made slightly sad realizing that this will be the final form of the Queen of the Skies. From there, the cockpit review and the start up procedure is simple, and easy to to follow with a good number of pictures to show you what you get to work with. What truly got me hooked though was the explanation for the FMS. I'm pretty awful at using any FMS, including the default one , but I could quite simply follow what was going on. The actual review of the flight was pretty much what I expected, but I was grateful that the author put a note about the frame rate hit. The night lighting was shown well, and I impressed with the way that SSG managed to implement it on such a big aircraft. In conclusion, your review persuaded me to get the aircraft, I was not disappointed. It was exactly like the review said. The accuracy of this review has convinced me to continue reading review from you guys and will surely tell other readers what they getting if they purchase this aircraft. Thanks for all your reviews, and happy birthday!

  3. Hello! Congrats on your 1st anniversary! I'm new, not only to X-Plane Reviews but also to X-Plane itself. Last Flight Simulator there before was FSX, but I never was really serious (only some VFR Sight Seeings, mostly flying aimless through the world). X-Plane Reviews was for a Beginner like me actually an invaluable aid, deciding for my first payware aircraft. Although I decided at the end for another first aircraft, my favourite plane is actually the "". I loved it from the first glance and my mainsource for information was aside the Planemakers Website your review. After reading your review I decided that I definitely need this, but also, that I maybe should have a bit more flying experience, before I try to fly the Albatross. Together with the fact, that there isn't much more to find about the Albatross on the net while Carenado is a well known brand, I preferred the Carenado King Air B200 on my first purchase, but the Albatross is on top of my List and is for certain my next Plane after that. - Arestris

  4. REVIEW OF THE 727 - in review One of my favourite planes: the Boeing 727. And one of my favourite reviews too. With excellent choice of graphics and easy-to-follow insights, this review covered all of the interesting angles. A good mix of interior and exterior closeups kept me glued to the page and wanting to read more. I loved the fact that the review was in two parts. Giving more details and insights was a great way to engage the 727 enthusiast - as it takes two parts at least to really discover this fantastic plane. After reading the review, I was very satisfied. Simple to follow, engaging graphics and text makes for a great review. Congratulations on your 1st X Plane Reviews anniversary. It's off to a great start!! I'm looking forward to a review of the Boeing 777 as good as this.

  5. Happy birthday X-plane reviews ! My favourite review you have ever done is the VMAX 777. That review is the best! The detail of it is incredible just like the time you put into studying and learning the aircraft to make the review. You outlined all of the aircraft's features, and all of it's capabilities and made me switch my favourite aircraft from the JARDesign a320neo to the 777. It has all the real 777's features and all of it's flight characteristics (at least from what I've seen on Youtube) you really nailed that one . Although I was an Airbus fan, the extreme detail of your review has won me over and I really want to spend time and experiencing for myself this great bird. I decided to enter this competition in the hope that I could possibly win the 777 and start making my wish of becoming a real 777 pilot a reality. I am a junior with plans to become a pilot in a few years time. Again, happy birthday and good work guys. Keep it up and take care.
