Hey all,
I want to join the 777 program now but can not install the 777 pack that delta provides in my current computer configuration and FSX. It does not install correctly, looks like a white plane and just does not mess well with my computer.
my question is this, Can I take my test in the wilco 777 that i bought over 6 months ago and have yet to use effeciently? That plane does work with my setup. Thanks!

I did my 777 CheckRide with the PSS plane so I believe you are ok with using payware unless the rules have changed.

Jay, email Ken and me and we will help you fix the problem. It sounds like a texturing problem. As long as the panel works for you, you should be fine.

Mike, you did the 777 checkride before the Ice Age. We now require that the checkride be flown in the fleet aircraft.

well if thats the case i will withdraw my application from the program, I am still very happy with the current fleet i can fly and overly happy with DVA and please don't take this as a sign of displeasure.. I just dont want to go through the install and gauge process again that fsx puts you through with the fleet library. Thank you though!!!!
