MilViz 737-200

[Skyhawk_310R]

OK, folks get ready for it! Cause it's coming to a virtual airport near you!

The Military Visualizations 737-200, complete with the rough runway landing gear system! The aircraft's design team includes a man who used to pilot the real world 737-200 for the airlines and he's primary on the construction of the flight dynamics! Check Anaconda Catalogue (https://www.ladysavings.com/publix-weekly-ad/?anaconda/) and Best and less Catalogue (https://www.ladysavings.com/publix-weekly-ad/?best-and-less/). So, you can be confident it will fly very closely to the real thing within the FSX virtual environment.

Here are some screenshots to wet your whistle!

Oh wow! Never saw this one coming. Looks great, though admittedly have many tube liners already. First time I've ever seen that gear configuration. Was a a heavily used option for the variant?

Matt

[Dain Arns]

I'm not a tubeliner fan at all, BUT...
This is the 737 from when I was young, and what I remember with fondness, hanging out at Denver's Stapleton airport.
Would love to see period paints on this one, especially the old Braniff, Frontier, and Western airlines liveries
I will get this when it becomes available. :applause:

[MenendezDiego]

Where is the HUD :icon_lol:

All kidding aside, kick ass!

Diego

[Naruto-kun]

The military wouldnt give em HUDs....top secret tech at that time if i recall :P

[StormILM]

The JF/Blackbox version is supposed to be out day after tomorrow and it looks very good but at nearly $46.00, I may wait on this version to come out before I jump at one or the other. Will this 73 also have versions without the rough field gear?

[Dave Torkington]

Blimey - what a nice surprise... My whistle is very moist indeed :ernae:

One of my first flights was on a Britannia 737-200 so I'll be keeping an eye on developments. Glad I held off getting the CS -200 base pack now. :salute:

Dave.

[MenendezDiego]

Will this 73 also have versions without the rough field gear?


From AVSIM:

"The following versions will be included:

1) cargo

2) cargo, rough terrain kit

2) cargo combi

3) cargo combi, rough terrain kit

4) passenger

5) passenger, rough terrain kit

Cargo pods, loaders, aft airstairs and other "helpful" things will be included...

Liveries are full HD. 8 maps at 4096. Now THAT'S HD. Obviously, we will supply them at a variety of resolutions for those who can't run the higher rez versions.

Near full systems and avionics... (The T-38A and C310R should give you an idea of where we're aiming... same coder!) (Yes Bill Leaming!)

Some new bells and whistles.... (more later)

Delivery is... soonish... I won't say when exactly but soonish... "

Regards, Diego

[kilo delta]

Best order some ear defenders for those JT-8D's :icon_lol:

OT:But..

Any hope of Milviz pulling out a surprise pack of F-4's from your collective development bag in the near future? ;p :guinness:

[PRB]

Oooh, nice. I'm making a "Janet" paint so I can go to Area 51...

[Victory103]

The military wouldnt give em HUDs....top secret tech at that time if i recall :P

JB, I guess after all the work on the F-15E and SP, you guys needed a break from HUD's/MFD's/Radars/JDAMs, so is it Civ-Viz now? Just kidding, I know you guys have the -310 too.

Mostly fly military everything, but the iconic 737 is the one tube I'll take up in FSX weekly, looks good so far and I can only imagine every single switch in the VC works.

[Naruto-kun]

Actually no for now im strictly milviz at milviz.....I dunno what else the boss has in the bag but i got 4 birds on my hands now all military and thats about as much as i can say ;) . The civilian stuff is mostly done by the legendary N4GIX

[flaviossa]

Very nice! Is there any information on the liveries available with it?

[CG_1976]

Combi and gravel kits, I'll order 15 now and 20 in two months please:icon_lol: and Im serious you have just got me as a customer, psst add a Canadian North paint and if you have gift certificates I'll buy three for a contest at my Virtual airline:icon29:

[Skyhawk18]

Very nice! Is there any information on the liveries available with it?

Working on a Canadian North livery now, and I have plans for a lot more.
All i can say by now is that there will be several liveries included with the release

[CG_1976]

:salute: thank you Skyhawk18. Skyhawk18 I also have a special req for my fellow Arctic Canadians. On Aug 20th 2011 First Air Flight 6560 crashed on approach to CYRB. That crash hit all of us in the Canadian Arctic hard and I'm wondering if you could please accept a req for First Air C-GNWN http://www.airliners.net/photo/First-Air/Boeing-737-210C-Adv/1881102/L/, So she may fly again in the virtual skies as a remembrance and a sign of honor to the great Workhorse of the Arctic that bring life to us.

[flaviossa]

Thanks Mr. Gunnar,
If it´s possible evaluate the possibility to put a brazilian livery in the package (VARIG, VASP, CRUZEIRO) ... well ... don´t hurt to ask! :icon_lol:

[JIMJAM]

I lost interest in flying airliners years ago but recently have the bug to start flying them again. I just have no desire to need a telephone book sized POH to get off the ground and navigate so hopefully this one will be a light sytems but flies and looks great. CS can keep their "works in progress" Id rather walk.

Sorry to hear about the fate of the C-GNWN. Yes, I will paint this one. I may need som more pictures (close-up) of the illustration on the vert stab (if it's possible to get some...)

And Dave.....Britannia is on my to-do list already :jump:

[dvj]

The aircraft textures look fabulous.

[Gdavis101]

Nice pictures!

[StormILM]

Skyhawk18, I hope(pray) that you'll consider at least one Piedmont scheme. Both the early and late schemes looked good but I think most would prefer the later gloss white over bare metal(bottom) with the blue stripe down the side and late(large) emblems.

[Dave Torkington]

And Dave.....Britannia is on my to-do list already :jump:

Awww brilliant Gunnar - real nostalgia with G-BAZI as she took my wife and I on honeymoon to Majorca... :icon29: to you sir :salute:

[olderndirt]

All i can say by now is that there will be several liveries included with the releasePlease don't overlook Wien Consolidated who, with Alaska, were the first to have the gravel kit. Back in '69/70 I was at Annette Island tower when Boeing had a 737 up testing the gravel kit. Annette's secondary runway was gravel and the closest of sufficient length for the tests.

[SeanTK]

This looks absolutely excellent!

In a hopefully not too futile effort to add to the livery request list, if I may submit the following:

National Airways Corporation (New Zealand)...almost the -200 launch customer if politics didn't get in the way. The airline was considering the -200 when it was still on the drawing board).

Aloha Airlines

Regardless of what liveries you include with release, I'm sure it'll be an amazing addon that'll be quite popular with the community (despite there being at least 3 737-200 models out or nearly out by then).

[Roadburner440]

Regardless of what liveries you include with release, I'm sure it'll be an amazing addon that'll be quite popular with the community (despite there being at least 3 737-200 models out or nearly out by then).

Ours will be a complete product with all systems modeled exluding the pneumatics systems. As far as release liveries go we have not finalized the list, but I think it would be safe to say we will not be adding to much (unless Gunnar keeps painting away like usual :icon_lol:) as we have always released the aircraft with paint kits and like seeing what the community can do with it.

[n4gix]

Just for information before anyone spots and mentions it...

The model build used for these screenshots has both the gravel kit and the normal gear doors visible. This was not an oversight, but simply because I hadn't compiled two separate models!

The "Gravel Kit" consists of the highly visible skid plate mechanism on the nosegear, a retractable belly beacon light, and vortex generator tubes on the fwd lower edge of the two engines. Check Sprouts Ad (https://www.ladysavings.com/publix-weekly-ad/?sprouts/) and Albertsons Ad (https://www.ladysavings.com/publix-weekly-ad/?albertsons/). These are used to squirt high-pressure bleed air ahead of the intakes to minimize the possibility of FOD ingestion... :icon_lol:

Thanks for clearing that up. I just started reading this thread and was going to post that someone needs to do some more research. But you'd be suprised how many customers wouldn't have a clue that there was a difference.

I would like to paint much of your requested liveries, but there is a limit for what I can manage within release. After the release, I may proceed painting a couple. So, by now I can not give more promises.
A paint kit will be available (as usual). The one I am using now is rather complex, but I will try to simplify it. :icon_lol:

3 liveries are almost done. More to come....

There's been a red stripe 'Janet" 737 in one of the Delta Tech Ops Hangars in Atlanta for the last week. I've seen it a few times while taxiing to 26L, and it appears to be getting a C check.

[DennyA]

I had the "People complain about sales in this market and they're doing another 737?" reaction too. But then I saw the shots, and combined with MilViz's usual quality, I'll be picking this up if the price isn't too PMDGish. :)

Besides, I've always loved the look of the 737-200. (Much more than flying in them, ugh.) You should do a "for fun" model where you throw a giant bubble canopy on top and paint it in an Me-262 scheme! That's what the -100/200 series always looked like to me. "We have to compete with the DC-9, and we don't have time to design a new airliner from scratch!" "Well, we have these captured German plans sitting around... Multiply every number by 8 and put a cockpit in front!"

[bstolle]

paint it in an Me-262 scheme! That's what the -100/200 series always looked like to me

Not too far off as the idea to glue the engines without a gap or strut below the wing was taken from the German 262 designers.

[fliger747]

A case has been made that Boeing took the general proportions including the wing sweep from the 262. I think the real reason that the pods are tucked closely to the wing has to do with the desire to keep the gear short and the engines fairly close inboard for single engine controllability. This has bit them a bit as the airframe has attempted to grow.

Are you going to add a Weather Radar Indicator/System to the Cockpit? Seems like a big hole to me on the forward part of the Pedestal. Those pilots are gonna be mad if they don't have their radar working come this time of year. I have seen a lot of these cockpits(Canadian/Zip/Canadian North/NWT Air/First Air) and all of them were so equipped. If you need any info I still have all my course manuals and could get it to you if wanted. I worked on these wee beasties quite a bit since 2001 when Air Canada bought out Canadian Airlines. In fact I have seen one of these birds down to only half the skin on the ribs and engineless wings. They took off 4 layers of scab patching above and below the window lines and replaced every thing with new modified skins. That work is called the 'Aloha' mod. to prevent another occurrence of the Aloha Airlines incident.
Everything I have seen on your model looks great except for that great big blanking plate on the forward pedestal.:cool:

That big blank panel will be filled with a 4" display, fully-functional, Navigraph updatable UNS-1F FMS. Since FSX doesn't actually provide the information necessary to have an actual working weather radar, it would be just a waste of time and effort to even try to code a "reasonably fake radar..." :isadizzy:

[n4gix]

Jeez, what you do to that poor 737:icon_lol: looks like you flew it thru a phase 1 blow with diamond dust:icon_lol: I like the character in that paint.

LOL! That livery is a pre-build set of textures that I've been using while working on the model and gauge systems. It is very rough and ready, with very coarse and overdone bump and spec maps... :icon_lol:

So no radar but a working FMS. It is too bad it can't be done, but a very nice replacement indeed. :wiggle:
On the line, every year about this time we would get scads of radar snags as the crews would start worrying about thunderstorms. Out here on the Canadian prairies we get some monsters that you REALLY want to avoid.:running:

Hey, you want to see REAL thunderstorms, come on down here to Texas and Oklahoma area and I'll show you what the real boomers look like! You haven't seen the real ones until you come down here and experience them! Those are the kind that can often drop baseball and softball size hail stones on the ground. Big enough to smash your windshield if one hits your car, or knock you out cold if you're foolish enough to ignore clouds so dark it puts the fear of God into you and commands you to seek shelter now!

Really, anywhere is fair game for an arse kicker of a T-storm, but Texas and Ok seem to have more than their fair share of arsekickers, no doubt.

[fliger747]

Yep, some real tight storm lines in that art of the world, but the biggest ones I have seen have been near the equator where the tropopause is usually higher. India and south Asia come to mind, especially the ones associated with tropical cyclones.

None of them are good except for entertainment value. Used to sit on the porch with my cousins in Southern Illinois in the pre TV era and watch them in the evening.

Hello,

happy to see a 732, with gravel kit, coming smoothly but what's about avionics, are you planning a dual Canadian Marconi CMC CMA-900 FMS/GPS ?
also, any T-43 planned or at least a repaint ?
Cheers.

[monk1]

Just looking through all the fantastic screenshots of this upcoming model and wondering if there are any updates?

[olderndirt]

Consider a paint for Wien Air Alaska - out of business now but one of the original gravel kitters.

[icycle]

Yes, am kind of waiting on this model, as the other two recent releases of the B732 are short in a number of areas. Namely the look of one, and the autopilot quirks of the other.

Add the fact of a potential "gravel kit", added to a reasonable paintkit, and you have a winner!

Bill

It will be ready when it's ready. It's not ready yet.

Bill has finished coding the log in to the over head panel, and getting all the lights in place. So just wanted to put this shot up showing the over head in all of its glory. Each light does have its own auto-dimming feature, and is set up to Boeing specifications. They are all illuminated here using the test function for show. Hope you guys enjoy, and we look forward to showing off more of this birds features soon as this is our most exciting product yet!"

All the best, Diego

Hello Folks,

Looks good and very promising, CONGRATS for the nice work. Count me in, it's soon Christmas:icon_lol::icon_lol:

I was kind of hoping this would be the old guards "steam gauge" plane without those computers...

Otherwise looks real fine.

I flew these years ago, and we did have some non steam guage aids to keep up with navagational necessities. The aircraft also had a PDC, or Performance Data Computer which helped with finding power settings etc, mosty just to keep from having to dig the data out of the charts when you were otherwise busy. Autopilots and instruments all still steam gauge.

Doing the Flight Dynamics for this one, so hoping to have some versimilitude to the real one. Quality planes take time, so this one has been slow in the coming as the Milviz shop is't an ACES studio with a hundred or more employees.

Cheers: T

It will have the option to be with or without the computers. No worries...

I'm putting off all payware purchases till this 737 releases. This 737 is a high priority for me and even more if she has First Air and Canadian North paints included. I also can say to all FSX fliers watch out there is a FSX native CYFB coming soon and she see's both Canadian North and First Air 737 activity.
Colin can I buy into the Beta please???

CYFB coming soon and she see's both Canadian North and First Air 737 activity.

Maybe ask these guys?.. http://www.uasc.com/products/uns1lw.aspx :)

Spent a couple hours last night tracking down that font. Got close a couple times. I did find some better images of the font though. The parallel capital A is rather unique, especially among monospaced fonts...
