The Fruit Stand is happy to release to the AI world two Craig Ritchie AI Models at once, the Boeing 777-200 and 777-300. Like the previous 777 models these new ones come complete with several LODs, and feature animated landing gear, thrust reversers, drooping elevators, XML controlled flaps and several engine variations per model (777-200: GE, PW & RR; 777-300: PW & RR).
Check avsim.com and flightsim.com for the 777-200 & 777-300, along with repaints by Tony Fosler, Boris Le Veve, Heiko Schmidt and Arnaud Solvay.
First and foremost thanks for another set of fantastic models! Got a quick question for you though in that I was just wondering if the 200ER is a different model to the baseline 200. I’m guessing not as the Air New Zealand 777-200′s are ER models but just wanted to make sure. Cheers again, Ben
As far as I know, differences between the -200 and the -200ER are internal only. The normal -200 model has two fuel tanks(left and right) and a dry bay between the wings in the fuselage. The -200ER and -300 have a center fuel tank instead of the dry bay, increasing their fuel capacity and max gross takeoff weight. There are different engine models available, but again, I think they look pretty much the same from the outside between the -200 and -200ER.
I note the pics on the site show the various boeing factory liveries, are the textures available?
Thanks,
Andrew
