Roman von FlightFactor nennt sie Frankenstein – denn die 767-400 ist nicht nur die jüngste in der 767-Familie, sondern auch die am stärksten modifizierte. „Die 767-400ER ist ein klassisches 90er-Jahre-Flugzeug mit Avionik, die von der modernen 777 übernommen wurde“, erklärt der FF-Chef kurz vor Release. „Wir haben ein komplett neues Avionik-Set mit neuen 3D- und Texturen für das Cockpit, hochauflösenden Bildschirmen, MFD und einer neueren Version des FMS zu dieser 767 hinzugefügt. Neue, stärkere Triebwerke, ein längerer Rumpf und ein von Grund auf neu konstruiertes Fahrwerk! Außerdem wurden kosmetische Änderungen am Außenmodell vorgenommen.“
Die 767-400ER für X-Plane ist jetzt im Org-Store erschienen – der Preis ist davon abhängig, welche FlightFactor 767 ihr schon besitzt. Solltet ihr Neukund:in sein, kostet euch die neue 767 im Moment 70 Dollar im Org-Store. Wer von einer anderen 767-Version upgraden will, findet hier die Möglichkeiten. Vor dem Kauf wird der Rabatt dann passend angezeigt – die 999 Dollar sind nur ein Platzhalter. Wollt ihr auch noch die anderen Teile aus der 767-Familie? Dieser Entscheidungsbaum soll euch laut Flight Factor helfen:
Übrigens gibt es die 767 gleich für zwei Simulatoren: X-Plane 11 und X-Plane 12. Letzterer sollte in den nächsten Wochen erscheinen, meinte Philipp Ringler von Laminar bei uns im Podcast.

Gefällt mir bisher gut. Texturen nicht mehr taufrisch (hab da aber eh noch nie großartig Wert drauf gelegt sofern der Rest stimmt) , schönes Soundpack, der Flieger hat auch schon das modernere 777/747 ähnliche Cockpit und er hat mw auch die Tragflächen der 777 bekommen (zumindest ähnliche). Für 30$/€ update top ! Fand die 757/767 von FF aber schon immer gut.
