X-plane.org made a mass e-mail to all forum members to inform us:

" The Breguet 763 with 3D interior. It is the very first airliner in X-Plane with such a detailed cabin. It goes as far as animating the flight attendants!"

I just thought it was funny since people would claim that MSFS is a game, yet a semi-official X-plane channel is kind of showing X-plane is too.

The animated flight attendants is surely a cool feature (provided it's more advanced than the pilots usual animations, I mean), but the interior and virtual cockpit of this plane are no so nice-looking, to say the least :/
However, it's nice to see that the virtual cockpits (and interiors) have become a more and more important feature in XPlane

I find everything about that plane... ghastly. The VC is horrendous... looks like a pre FS2002 VC to me (and yes I know... no VC's prior to FS2002).

I'm iffy on the flight attendants. They get annoying during preflight.

thats cartoonish and not realistic at all. the only thing that x plane is good for is flight dynamics and thats it

[Cereal_Guy]

wow yeeeah totally realistic...and btw my fs98 737 has nicer graphics than that...but the best part is that they are asking money for such a product...shameeee

Actually, XPlane can have very nice aircraft, as beautifull, detailled and precise than the FSX ones. It's just that there are not enough serious payware developpers for that simulation... yet.
I don't know if Xplane allows addons like Accusim, though...

You took the words right out of my mouth...

X-Plane to me looks like FS98 on steroids. High Resolution textures and improved terrain.

Oh and how could I forget the same looping JFK ATC Traffic from 2000 that they've had on there for god knows how long.

Horses for Courses, some people like other sims apart from MSFS!!!

Thanks for the comic relief, friend.

Oh no...

Abacus is developing for X-Plane now!

Completely agree... I've seen some incredible planes and scenery in X-Plane 9 but this isn't even close to their best work. In fact I wouldn't d/l it even if it was freeware.

[Brandon-M]

Someone would pay for that? Those textures are, well, ew.
