FS2004 Boeing 747-400 Flight Dynamics

Boeing 747-400 flight dynamics tuning delivers more authentic thrust response, idle behavior, and cruise performance for the default jumbo in FS2004. Refined engine tables and handling parameters bring takeoff, climb, and long-range profiles closer to real-world expectations, improving trim feel and overall stability in the virtual cockpit.

The standard Boeing 747-400 that comes with original FS2004 is not accurate; its engines develop too much thrust while being too weak at idle, and the cruise settings are incorrect. By Pedro Oliveira.

This file has saved me a lot of headaches as it solved a problem I was having with FS9's default 744 doing two moves that should be impossible in the real world, let alone FS, whenever I got remotely close to the maximum thrust of 63,300 pounds (28,122 Kilograms) for the default PW4062 engine. The only drawback as far as I can tell, is that you have to start lowering your rate of climb at about 28,000-32,000' (8,534-9,753 meters) depending on your total gross weight and indicated speed, or you run the risk of stalling.
