Fly the Stock B737 from the DVC and pretend you're flying the FFX model ;D

Why should the exterior matter if your flying from the inside? ;)

Because the PMDG 737 is way ahead in the realism department in the cockpit aswell. Half the joy when flying the PMDG 737 is to program your route in the FMC and watch the aircraft behave accordingly. Going from the PMDG 737 to the default 737 in FS is rather depressing.

depressing indeed!

not to mention that i just love to look at my cool plane with the spot view when im flying it really high or when i just landed ::)

looking at the plane rolling down the runway with it's flaps down and airbrakes open gives you the feeling of accomplishing something

but the default 737 is so nasty you can barely see the flaps :P
