Advice needed: Which payware airliner?

'Lo all!

OK; I've been going down this forum for a bit as well as the Payware Screenshots; and I've come to the decision it's time to try out the payware. :)
Now; there are a lot of good ships out there; spectacular-looking aircraft, etc.
So...
Which one should I get?
Not jokin' here - I don't like buying things online; never have, and I'm more than a little leery about sending money orders off in the mail to an online group. (No CC - I got too friendly with de plastic years back. ;D ) So I want to be sure that the one I get - dipping the toe in, as it were - is topnotch; and wholeheartedly approved by the payware freaks here. :)

OK; so what I'm looking for is a good airliner; preferably in Air Canada colours. Not too heavy on the framerates - my system ain't exactly ace - maximum realism on both flight parameters and controls. Controls as complex as possible - I view dummy buttons as a personal insult. ;D ;D ;D

You'll be looking for the PMDG 737NG then .........  It comes in many flavours ...... with loads more to add including Air Canada as a free download.
Working FMC, with or without VC and Virtual cabin, so it can be as framerate friendly as you wish.

I'm sure that most of the other guys that frequent the payware forums  will agree, that for the dosh you can't get much better.

cheers

I'd also vote for the PMDG 737NG. One of the best add-ons for FS, well worth the money!

You'll have controls coming out your ears, it's so damned complicated....!

That is a good one!


I would suggest the Citation X from eaglesoft. Great plane! 8) :o

Although, that wouldn't be in AC colours............. ::)

I have the 737NG and recommend it highly.  It meets all of your criteria.   Got mine from PC Aviator. Great service and no hassle.
