Project Open Sky Boeing 767-200 (v4)
FREEWARE
The Boeing 767 is a medium to long haul wide-body commercial passenger jet aircraft. It can carry between 181 and 375 passengers over a distance of max. 12,200 Km. The 767 was launched to replace the 707 and fill the gap between the 727/757 and the 747. The first 767, the -200 variant, entered service with United Airlines in 1982. Blended winglets are available as a retrofit to increase fuel efficiency and range.

Project Open Sky is a freeware aircraft developer group that has been around for some time. They developed many aircraft models for FS2002 and FS2004, mostly Boeing aircraft. Their Boeing 767-200 is a highly detailed representation of its real world counterpart. A few of the features are: dynamic shine, opening passenger and cargo doors, 3d flight attendants in the cabin, animated pushback truck (wingfold key) and more. There are various models available like RR, GE and PW engine variants.

The flight dynamics are quite good, although the landing can be hard due to the limited ground effect (the flare doesn't have much effect on the vertical speed, so use the engine power instead to make a smooth landing). Like many other aircraft developed by Project Open Sky, the rudder is totally ineffective. So make sure there is not much crosswind when you takeoff or land. The landing gear is very detailed and behaves quite realistic, although it will float for a short time at touchdown.

NOTE FOR FSX USERS: This aircraft is fully compatible with FSX. However, the main landing gear animation will not work properly.
