Braathens 737-700

Anyone knows where I can find a good freeware Braathens 737-700 with the new colors (with the norwegian flag on the tail and blue belly)?
I have the kittyhawks version but everytime when I go in for landing the nose just keeps pointing downwards eventhough I have the necessary speed and flaps fully extracted. 😞
the details on the kittykhawks version is good but something must bw wrong with the plane 😞
and if I have to much speed the plane increases alltitude, instead of decreassing alltitude.

Btw Mate...
I tested the aircraft. It's nice but the turning is weak and when I landed at (ENKB) Kvernberget airport here in norway, I landed with flaps fully extracted, gear down and spped at I think it was 146 knots and I had the auto brake at level 2 but when I landed and set the engines for reverse thrust the aircraft didnt brake much as a an FFX 737-500.

Do you know if there is anything I can do to make the brakes on the aircraft work better?
but the most neet thing I liked about the aircraft was the towing truck that showed when I entered "push back". 😀
That was just cool 🙂

Is is possible too get towing trucks to every plane in the game?

well the guys at posky i think tried to emulate the weaker brakes as in real life and the slow(IE. non-arcade) slow roll rate - but indeed they might have gone a bit far. get on projectopensky.com and check out their FDE forum.

No. Tow trucks are either a part of the individual aircraft or of an individual airport scenery you download.

Ah ok...
Wellwell 🙂

Do you know if it's gonna towing trucks in FSX?
I tryed the demo and when I put all setting for graphics at the best it didnt go well😛 hehe
I think my graphics card is alittlw weak for the kind of graphics Microsoft has made for FSX.
I have an ATI Radeon X600 Hyper Memory 256mb graphics card.
I have all the best setting at max in FS2004 and it goes reall smooth 😀[/code]

I don't have FSX yet but any questions related to FSX will surely be answered by those who already have it in the Flight Simulator X forums up the top.

I wouldn't make any final judgement redarding FSX based on the Demo. Hang about and keep reading the FSX forums for the next few weeks. I'm sure many of your questions will be answered.

Ok sure...

I also found out that the autopilot on the Posky 737-700 Braathens dont work properly!
The autothrottle works, the flight director goes on but the alltitude switch wont work!
I was going to fly from ENKB (Kvernberget) to ENZV (Sola) and was told to climb to 8000ft but when i reached 5000ft and put the autopilot on the plane wouldnt climb anymore! The flaps were fully retracted and offcourse the landing gear up.
Kinda funny though...
I have a B747-200 Qantas which I downloaded from www.projectopensky.com and that plane works just fine.
The autobrakes is very good, the autopilot is fully functional.

But I dont think it's the same maker though😛 hehe

The autopilot is part of the panel. So the question is, what panel are you using?
I can't have a look at it because I can't find the File Description which would let me do a ZipDive at avsim.

Soooo... you have to either find out for yourself which panel you are using or you have to provide the link for the Braathens so we can look at it.

Perhaps there's some kind of conspiracy going on here that we don't know about with people answering all these old posts! 🙄
