After purchase, you have to download a compressed folder with the installer in it. Installation of the 6700 expansion is similar to installing the NGX base pack. For a more detailed review on the other features, you can read my earlier review on the base pack here. Not really surprising, so for this review I’ll be focusing on the areas that make the expansion different from the base pack, as well as a general overview of the product. While testing this expansion pack, I found it to be very similar to the base pack. The NGX 6700 expansion pack is sold at the PMDG website for $24.99. PMDG couples these two smallest models in one expansion package, thus completing the original lineup of the Boeing 737 Next Generation family (-600, -700, -800, -900) in the PMDG lineup for FSX. The 736 is also the slowest selling member of the NG family, with only 69 delivered and no outstanding orders. The -600 is the smallest aircraft in the Next Gen family, and is the only one that is not offered with blended winglets as an option. The 737-600 is a shortened version of the 737, similar in size to the 737-500. As a direct competitor to the A319, the -700 is the second most popular model in the Next Gen family after the 737-800.
The first model of this new series was the 737-700, aimed at the size segment of the 737-300, while also intending to replace the DC-9.
This first service pack brings the 737-600 and 737-700 to FSX in PMDG quality.įacing serious competition from the Airbus A320 family, Boeing decided to upgrade their 737 family of aircraft in the 1990’s. While the PMDG NGX basepack only delivered the 737-800 and 737-900, the first expansion pack was released shortly after PMDG updated the NGX to SP1. Now there's even a window in window webbrowser: if you need charts you don't have to switch between apps! I can even check my e-mails while flying :-) You can choose different maps to follow your flight.
It doesn't effect your frame rates and has it all: full pushback and jetway support, fmc, radio, gps and atc support. You don't need any buttons on your joystick anymore.
Don't be put off by the price as it is worth it.-If you need one app that does it all, you need only this one. This is an excellent app that works particularly well with PMDG 737 which has also been a revelation. I am still getting to grips with it, and will email the developer if there is anything significant. This app covers many bases and has proven to work straight out of the box. The whole display is well laid out and crystal clear-I have purchased quite a few flight sim add ons over the years, and have been disappointed with many.
I really like the built in map, which helps. All of this in one without having to pay for apps to add other functions.
So many functions in one App, and it all works.
