Orbxtreme Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Hi, here is a quote from the Airliner World magazine from March 2017: "One of the most unusual types at Ted Stevens (Anchorage) are Boeing's 747LCF Dreamlifters. The four jets, operated by Atlas Air, make regular technical stops en route from Nagoya, Japan where they collect fuselage sections for the 787 Dreamliner, to the assembly lines at Paine Field, Everett and North Charleston, South Carolina". The present virtual set is the flight from Ted Stevens airport to Paine Field... Paine Field in the background... A light crosswind for the final 34. Winds were blowing 029 at 12G15. Airliner World provides great ideas for virtual flight. Hope you liked. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Hill Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Great shots. I watch the real Dreamlifters pass over our house almost daily and you can't believe how huge they look. I live a few miles south, under of the flight path of them when arriving/leaving Paine Field. Cheers, Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you buy the PMDG 747, there are also extensions that you can get. The Dreamlifter is one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to go on PMDG site to see what they offer today. Nowhere can I see an extension called LCF like the one on the present set. But they are talking about a converted freighter while giving it a different extension name in the Queen of the Skies II. The best solution would be to write directly an e-mail to PMDG to enquire about the possibility to acquire a LCF version. I've had mine since May 2013. The version of that one was named 2.10.0044. (PMDG 747-400X-LCF). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if Boeing ever built one of these on a 747-400 frame so if they didn't then I don't know if PMDG would do the same. It is amazing in the sim though, I mean, it's absolutely huge!
