This is the first time I have ever purchased an expansion pack since buying FSX new when it came out. You are basically paying for a 747 enhancement plus a 777 and a TriStar. The overall quality of the other planes seemed rushed. On the MD-11, for example, there are many blurry instruments and textures. Some of the textures (the alarm lights) seem like they are copy and pasted from various internet sources. The A380 was missing textures on everything outside of your direct vision. The Joystick was cream coloured and blocky, and the instruments were unreadable. Even the 777, one of my favorites of the pack, had an almost fatal flaw. I am not a pilot familiar with the 777, so it may chalk up to pilot error...but I could not find the switch for the instrument lights. From what I could make out they were very detailed and user friendly but it was difficult to read at 9:30pm est. Overall, this expansion deserves a solid 60% and I would recommend buying it. 60% passed you in high school, so I shall pass this too.
