B377 worth it in 2021?

Post by ADFGVX »

About 2 weeks ago I purchased the L049 from A2A,which is just amazing with its COTS system. Now I looked up the A2A B377 and was equally impressed with it, therefore I am considering to buy it. However it's just available for FSX,which is very dated ( and I have not touched it for a long long time), so I would be glad if someone could give me their opinion if the B377 is still an investment worth spending

Hi, Only you can ultimately answer that question. How often and for how long are you going to continue using FSX.
Those of us who know the 377 will all answer the same "Heck Yeah!!" as far as the plane goes.
It certainly is my favourite complex aircraft. I love all the others but this plane is something special.

Store price is $60, so if you get 60 hours out of it, thats a dollar per hour. Thats 10 x 6 hour flights.
Cheers

Good on you mate. It will be interesting following your progress.

Be aware this plane likes to lift off the main gear before the nose wheel, so don’t pull up too early or rotate too much.

The B377 is an absolutely incredible experience to fly. I still use the Flight Engineer so not tried to start up comletely myself.
Flown it a lot, had engine fires, the modelling is just incredible.

I am sticking with FSX because I own all A2A planes and Air Craft Factory planes. For me the planes are more important than the sim. A2A planes on FSX are incredible.
