HD seems nice...

Yes... the PMDG 737 is demanding on resources... but the iFly is not as hard on systems... Did you read their requirements?

Flight Simulator X SP2
2.0 Mhz Processor
2.5 GB of disk space
2048 RAM
256 MB Video Card (512 recommended)
Windows XP / Vista / Win7
Can't fly the current online with FSInn. I think it does work w SB.

The iFly 737NG is a great a/c and I enjoy everything about it except the autopilot disconnect. In their attempt to model the a/c as "real as it gets" they were a little too aggressive with the autopilot disable. While flying on auto if you touch your joystick it automatically disengages the autopilot. This is the only problem I have with this a/c so far. They are suppose to have a patch coming out for it sometime soon.

I had an issue with the FMS not entering my waypoint speeds and altitudes and was pulling my hair out trying to resolve. So just to let you know it requires that you enter a percentage for the desired reserve fuel remaining. The Level-D 763 FMS does not require you to enter this value, though you can if you desire. The iFly 737NG does not give you an error if you don't enter a value but will not calculate the speed/altitude for waypoints and therefore will not provide the TOD point. Just a little hint for you.
