This freeware package merges the Aeromexico Boeing 747-400 (XA-AMC) livery with the original Meljet base model, refined by creators Melvin Rafi and updated for FSX by David Grindele. It integrates authentic flight handling, new 3D light effects, and various enhancements tailored for the simulator environment.

Overview

The real-world Boeing 747-400 is a four-engine, long-range commercial airliner, well-known for its spacious interior and distinctive hump on the upper deck. In this add-on, the Aeromexico repaint (registration XA-AMC) reflects the airline’s recognizable design and includes upgrades that align with modern FSX needs. The model retains the hallmark features of Melvin Rafi’s original Meljet series while integrating stability tweaks, ensuring smoother behavior during all phases of flight.

Key Features

  • Refined Flight Dynamics: The air file and configuration data have been carefully adjusted to deliver consistent handling and performance in FSX.
  • Exterior Maintenance Animation: Engine cowlings open via [Shift+E], revealing the internal turbine details.
  • Gate Interaction: Activate jetways by pressing [Ctrl+J] while positioned at a compatible gate for a more immersive ramp operation.
  • 3D Light Implementation: New lighting effects are optimized for use with A2A’s 3D Lights and Redux modules (if installed), enhancing night realism.

Installation Instructions

  1. Extract and place the entire “Aircraft” folder into your “.../FSX/SimObjects/Airplanes” directory.
  2. Launch FSX, select “MELJET” from the manufacturer or publisher list, and choose the 747-400 XA-AMC variant.
  3. No extra downloads are required for normal operation. However, to see the full 3D lighting effects, you will need A2A’s 3D Lights & Redux package.

Additional Notes

  • This aircraft has been tested on Windows Vista 32-bit and Windows XP platforms.
  • All core content is packaged in this download, making it a self-contained freeware offering.
  • Creators: Original model by Melvin Rafi; conversion and updates by David Grindele.

I would be grateful to anyone who can guide me on the Aeromexico 747-400. I have downloaded FSX and it does not enter flight Simulator X, I have Windows 7, I do not know what the problem is, thanks in advance, best regards.
