"HJG 2ND RELEASE FOR 2025 - UPGRADED DC-9 SIMULATIONS"

Continuing its 25th anniversary celebrations: HJG (Historic Jetliners Group) have pleasure announcing its 2nd release for this 2025 FS year .... a total of some 42 "UPGRADED" files for both FS2004 and FSX.

This latest release is entirely focused upon "a major upgrade" of HJG's DC-9 simulations .... composed of 25 upgraded aircraft/engine type specific aircraft base packs containing FDE enhancements .... and also including 16 similarly upgraded aircraft/engine type specific panels too along with their supporting panel gauges/core files components.

The oringinal HJG DC-9 Aircraft Base Packs were both FS2004 and FSX compatible as has also always been the case with regard to their supporting customized DC-9 type P&W JT8D sound packs too (separate FS9 and FSX specific audio offerings) .... BUT .... the original HJG DC-9 Panels were only ever FS2004 compatible.

Be advised the "new/upgraded" DC-9 panels included within this latest HJG release are now both "FS2004 and FSX compatible". As part of their upgrading some not previously represented features are also now included within these "new/upgraded" DC-9 panels too.

For further information concerning these latest HJG offerings refer to the groups following forum announcement .....

A little extra information has also now been added to the supporting and following-linked new HJG DC-9 MANUAL for this entire project .... and a few informative clarifications applied also ....

Always nice to see HJG still actively updating their classic fleet.
The DC-9 has always been a favorite, so having updated FDEs and now FSX-compatible panels is a big plus. Really appreciate the work that goes into keeping these older aircraft alive and improving them.
Looking forward to trying these out — thanks for sharing! basketball stars

.... or from PP2 of "HJG LATEST FILE RELEASES" section of the HJG Forum .... see the "LATEST HJG SUPPLIED AIRCRAFT BASE PACKS, MODELS, PANELS/GAUGES, SOUND PACKS, & EFFECTS FILES" on this forum page.

The above mentioned data is the new/latest stock which is both FS9 and FSX compatible.

Be aware the DC-9 Aircraft Base Packs, Panels .... and their supporting Gauges/Core Files stock, located within the official DOWNLOADS section of the HJG website, are the original release and are FS9 compatible only.

A little "untidy" .... I know ... but for circumstances entirely beyond our control there's nothing we can do about this tough .... other than to alert people to this fact by manually pointing people in precisely the right direction in order to access the latest stock
