Fellow Airmen,

The 737-800 is a stretched version of the 737-700, and replaces the 737-400. It also filled the gap left by Boeing's discontinuation of the McDonnell Douglas MD-80 and MD-90 after Boeing's merger with McDonnell Douglas. The -800 was launched by Hapag-Lloyd Flug (now TUIfly) in 1994 and entered service in 1998.

The 737-800 seats 162 passengers in a two class layout, or 189 in one class, and competes with the A320. For many airlines in the U.S., the 737-800 replaced aging Boeing 727-200 trijets and MD-80 series and MD-90 aircraft.

The largest single order for the -800 series has come from the Irish budget carrier, Ryanair. After 28 had already been ordered earlier, a firm order for 100 aircraft was made in January 2002, with an option of another 50, to be delivered over the next 8 years. Ryanair will use the aircraft in a single class configuration, to seat 189 passengers

A variant of the 737-800 is the Boeing Business Jet 2 (BBJ2), which is described separately.

Mine works fine.
Try restarting FSX.

Maybe something with the drivers?

Moses, do you run DX10?

Try restarting the whole computer if restarting FSX doesn't work.

Thanks a lot! It looks great, I haven't tried it yet but remember, for FSX users you can download the FSX .mdl file from posky and merge it with the default 738 VC and panel, it's better than nothing!:D

Perhaps try re-downloading, the download may have gotten corrupted some how.

Introduction of KSEA and KDEN is excellent idea and overdue.

Important notice to all of you regarding KSEA. KSEA vatsim controllers like to direct pilots to land on new runway 36C. So search avsim or flightsim for modification to FS2004 or FSX default KSEA.

If unable to find, KSEA controllers will tell you which runway in FSX or FS2004 default KSEA is same as new runway 36C.

Last night, I just flew via Vatsim flight into KSEA (before this route was announced) and was totally amazed by so many planes there taking off and landing even there was no vatsim airport or virtual airline event!!!

Speaking of new 738s that we got now, check the interesting news piece about Qantas' use of its new 738s planes as see on this hyperlink:
