This comprehensive package adds a highly detailed British Airways Boeing 777-236ER (registration G-VIIY) to Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004. Developed as a freeware release for Fly Away Simulation, it includes the original MelJet base model by Melvin Rafi along with a specialized repaint by Alex Macdonald and Dickson Chan. It incorporates refined liveries with photoreal fuselage details, an accurately rendered “Union Flag” tail, and intricate hand-painted engine components for enhanced immersion.
Exceptional Textures and Technical Enhancements
Photoreal Mapping: This rendition employs high-resolution images to replicate quintessential British Airways markings. Tail and fuselage textures are based on real-world references, allowing simulated pilots to appreciate the detailed color contrasts and logos seen on the actual aircraft.
High-Fidelity Engine Renderings: Enthusiasts will discover ultra-precise engine cowls and exhaust cones, complemented by the meticulous pylons painted by Dickson Chan. Variations are provided for both General Electric and Rolls-Royce engine configurations, maintaining authenticity across the Boeing 777-236ER lineage.
Enhanced Wing Surfaces: The wings have been finished with high-detailed sections that match British Airways’ evolving paint schemes. This combination of traditional and modern markings underscores the airline’s long-standing operational history with the wide-body twinjet.
Upgraded Undercarriage Textures: Photoreal wheel textures offer a true-to-life appearance, mirroring the complexity of the actual landing gear mechanism.
