I won the wizzsim SS contest and get to choose any Captain Sim product I am choosing between 757 and yak 3... what do you think is better?

Depends on what type of flying you prefer. Both are high quality models, but the 757 is not as systems intensive as many tubeliner junkies had hoped, so if your looking for an FMC equipped plane with completely realistic systems, this is not it. I imagine it is also more of an FPS (frame-rate) hog, than the Yakolev. Still seems to be a good airliner though, for those that are not hung up on having all the complexity.

In the end, think of what type of aircraft/flying you use/do the most currently, and I would base my decision on that.

I'd go with the Yak, out of those two.

However, if it's ANY CS product, Go for the C-130!

By far one of their best, if not THE best product offered by them. Tad bit of a Frame-rate hog, but amazingly detailed, and handles just as I imagined it would.

Only downside, is that the JATO effect is just that. An effect. No working JATO =(

I had them all in FS9. To include all but the float version 130. Gotta say I am partial to the 130. Especialy the AC-130.
