Another PSA 737-200 Variant

[biggiraffe]

Hello!

When/if you get time to work this one in, would you please consider this other variant for a PSA 737?  It's the older livery but with a smile:

Thank you!

Think Erik (whom painted our other PSA B732's (and some of our B727's and DC-9's too) has this one, among a couple of others as well, on his list already.

So it's likely just a question of time before it's available here.

Yup, that'll be a quick addition- shouldn't take long to put it together!

Thanks, Erik! After years of wanting a really good 737, now even getting my favorite airlines from my youth, this is just AWESOME! (And your painting is amazing, too -- as though photos of the real subjects!)
Best regards,
Kurt

We aim to please.

At least we try to .... albeit limited to developing/redeveloping for older FS platforms (in the form of FS9 and FSX). There's a number of reasons for this limitation though (some of which are less understood by many) .... and most of which extend into the "proprietary side of things" given much of what we now offer "IS NOT" our own to be able to do with as we please without the right authorization/s.

Rest assured though that whatever we do do .... in regard to what we can/are able to do, or redevelop, will always be both "GOOD" and "DIFFERENT".

I say "GOOD" because the small in-house team I work with here go out of their way to try'n perfect, and improve, what we offer "in so much as our own understanding of the subjects we represent; access to the right/best technical references available; and access to original developmental aids for what we import and offer all enable our being able to do" (key words ). Sometimes though we're extremely limited in respect of what we can achieve due to the absence of data (original FS developmental aids in particular) .... and that's just the the way it "IS"/some things "HAVE TO BE" of course

I say "DIFFERENT" because since its formation during 2000 HJG's maintained a tradition of representing nearly full flight lines of the aircraft types/families it simulates .... each of which are FDE customized "in so far as FS limitations permit" (key words once again ), so, nothing we offer is, or performs in FS, precisely the same as another representation of the same aircraft type/family offered by us (provided each simulation's flown properly/correctly to start with of course ) .... AND .... although quite a number of the simulations we offer have been based on what's previously been represented by other parties in the past (obviously .... and we do acknowledge this) what we import, redevelop, and re-offer "IS NOT" the same as these other/earlier releases. This's "INTENTIONAL" .... otherwise what we offer would be no different/better than what was previously/earlier represented.

I was recently pleased to read a couple of "BIGGIRAFFE's" comments in regard to our CANTU B737-200 offerings and which acknowledge some of the above ....

I've tried other downloads of the 737-200 over the years, but was never happy with any of them. One problem has been poor handling qualities -- I read the 737 was enjoyable to pilot, but these models were so finicky that they were annoying. And another problem was finding a good sound pack, something that did not sound like a -300/-400, nor like a Convair 880. You folks have resolved all of this, and all of your work and testing shows in the exceptional product you've given us.

.... and which (I feel) justifies the hours/weeks/months (sometimes years) of time, and often frustration too, we apply trying to "get things right" and/or "make things better" .... for the "FREE" enjoyment of everyone else whom cares to part take of it all

Similar also applies in regard to the work our painters apply to each of the liveries they produce as well .... and which (along with those audio and panel files we ourselves develop too) help bring everything alive and may be considered "THE ICING ON THE CAKE"

Just need to finish up the formatting, but otherwise, it's ready!

WOW! It's a beauty!
(Same can be said of your others...)
Thanks,
