We often say that modeling is the easy part, and programming an aircraft to behave like the real counterpart is where the real work is. On the inside, there’s a 777-style cockpit (Boeing introduced this flight deck on the latter 767 variants, a step towards common form and function across the Boeing fleet) but, again, Captain Sim includes “essential functionality paired with default 747 systems simulation. In any case, if you have this amount of money burning a hole in your pocket, you will get a 767 for MSFS, a detailed and accurate model of the real aircraft, with high-resolution textures and realistic animations (wing flex included). This would probably be acceptable… if Captain Sim wasn’t charging $29.99 for it. It’s very much the same play that Captain Sim did with the 777. Sadly, again, it comes with systems from the default 747… After the thunderous debacle that was the launch of the 777 earlier this year, the developer is now launching the 764 Captain, a digital replica of the Boeing 767-400ER. Captain Sim is back with another somewhat controversial release for Microsoft Flight Simulator.
