Goodbye, we will miss you.

loved your amazing reviews 

also some lovely photos- I see you finally bought the 767

I feel like as long as x-plane can get some good scenery, clouds, etc., it can beat MFS. It’s already stronger in many areas, especially physics, thanks to Austin with his blade element theory.

Is it safe to say that the 350 is 100% ahead now with 1.6.8 (SID/STAR]?

Is this good? I am interested because my favorite airlines operate A330-300 but jar is A330-200.

i have jar but interestedly in this.

but have or not have pilots inside the cockpit and the doors are painted? if this questions agree, what big trash

Those are barely needed. Even ff a320 don’t have pilots models.

and I heard IXEG733 doesn’t have doors.

Nice! I might get this if I’m starting some regional flights.

The developer (ramzzess) says the ff320 should have similar framerate to ff757 FPDS modern avionics. I went for it, and sure enough they sure are similar.

not that good in FPS, but alright for me (constant 20 FPS with some drops to 15). Very surprising actually considering my specs...

Thanks I got both before you answered and I totally agree!

Bit of a headscratcher is this one... I saw the comments on users saying they have appalling framerates, but I never had that? It is heavy on framerate, but really only the same as the usual comparative to say the FF B757/B767, and I have had a few hours on it now. I run xEnviro and WT3 alongside, but a reason might be in the texture settings... I only use "High" and not maximum and my objects down a click, you really lose nothing visually but gain in framerates, X-Plane weather is another factor.

 

To prove my point here are three screenshots...

 

The first is Aerosoft's EDDF with WT3 and Xenviro running and setting up the A320U...  I get 26frames (box in corner enlarged) ? EDDF is pretty heavy and complex scenery

 

 

Second is on approach to ENGM Oslo, again Aerosoft scenery but with some pretty heavy weather around me, I get 28 frames....

 

 

At altitude (say FL340) with no scenery it is around 32-35 frames to a top of 40 frames...  the numbers don't lie.

 

 

So are the users being too greedy in what they want? I think so, I never found the aircraft in a marginal framerate position, so nothing worse or nothing better than the rest with the same complexity...  SD

 

 

Hey Stephen, How does the framerate on the 320 compare to 757 with same settings, weather, scenery and location? Thanks.

Is it worth it to get both? Thanks.

Hey Stephen, I’m interested in this plane. Is it worth the price?

thanks.

There is more value with the "Extended" pack as you have not only the two extra variants, but the PW/RR engines as well. The Avionics pack is just the FPDS avionics.

Alright, I got the 757 modern avionics, did a flight with it, and I’m quite happy. Now should I get the 767 extended (nearly identical), or toliss 319 (I have a really good freeware a321 already)? I do like the 757/767 in real life, but a change would be nice. 

Thanks!

i think I’ll go with the extended pack on one of the 757/767, and the FPDS on the other.

the FPDS might be helpful to me because I really despise the tony readings and displays on he regular version, as well as the fact that the altitude is on a steam gauge by itself.

Hi, is this worth it more than the extended pack if I want modern displays more than 2 extra planes?

also does the regular/modern avionics 757 come with PW And RR engines? Thanks!

Probably you won't have any problem with the 777-300er. If you can run the 767, the A350 shouldn't be a problem. Note that the 767 minimuns are 3GB Vram, and the A350 only 2GB, this way the A350 should work just fine.

Thanks, just sometimes the required specs are misleading... toliss needs 4GB VRAM they say... works perfectly fine on a rusty iMac. FF320 needs 2GB VRAM? I doubt it would even give me 3FPS on my old machine...

thanks anyway!

Hi, most of time the the 777 has a higher frame rate. Actually, frame rate won't be a big problem with both aircraft if you have a good PC, but the 777 is a little more FPS friendly then the A350, especially in the cockpit.

Thanks, I have a really old iMac, only 2GB of VRAM... Can run the 777 and JAR330 quite well, along would ff767. I’ll get 777 extended then think about the 350.

Hi, it’s me again. I’ve used the 777 on a few flights now, and I’m very happy with it. I love the -300ER from Emirates and Cathay the most, so I’m looking to upgrade to extended pack. But I’m considering buying the 350 as well, because CX also operates that. How does the frame rate of the 350 compare to the 777? Thanks!

Welcome to the review site! This was a really helpful comparison, and I finally got the 777!

Keep one making these great reviews/comparisons!

Comparison idea: 757vs767  

hello stephen. I'm considering this aircraft, but people have different opinions on the FPS of it.

Some say it is similar to the FFA320 Ultimate in FPS, others say the FPS is better than the FF777.

Which one is true? If none of them are. true, then how does the. A350 compare to the A320 and 777 in frames?

thanks.

hi. stephen. i tried opening the doors in. this plane. only the middle 2 pairs (3 pairs on. the -300ER) open? i can't seem to open the front two and rear two doors...

also there are no cargo doors on the passenger variants?

Just now, Stephen said:

ToLiSS A321-231 is a no brainer, more range and a bigger aircraft..

ok, thank you!

Probably waiting for Vulkan!  the B747-8F really needs Vulkan

can't wait for the 747F!!!

hello, i am looking for an A320 family aircraft for KA (cathay dragon) routes, because I'm obsessed with cathay and their secondary airline.

The. JAR a320 has too shallow systems. The FF A320 is too frame heavy and too pricey for. me. So my choices are the Toliss Planes.

KA operates the 320 and 321, but I found fictional liveries for the 319, so either would be fine.

So which one is a better buy in general? Does one have any extra features over the other one?

Thanks.

hello, great review! i like doing cathay pacific flights, so naturally, i would need the planes that cathay uses. i have the jetsim a330 and ssg 747-8f (freeware).

cathay also operates the 777 and a350. I am looking between the two, and wondering which I should get first – the a350 (with the april MCDU update) or the 777 extended.

Which one is recommended more? the 777 extended or the a350+april updae?

btw how do the fps compare on these 2? thanks!
