HHHHHMMMMMm i think im confusing myself, say for instance i go with progect magenta and use all of there software, as far as a platform do i still use FS9/FSX.
Right now my base plane is the default 737 in FSX, ( the default planes in FSX are better in my upinion than FS9) and that is what im building on, i have constructed my MIP, and have set up my monitors behind it.
Im running a eight monitor set up through widefs, wodeview etc.
i decided to get the go flight MCP , and the GF-46 nav radios..
i have completey built me a shell to house myself into and have constructed my overhead panel, so im wanting to see if the pm system will work for me.
So im thinkin if i have a cockpit that will be mostly real buttons and switches what would be the advantage of using pmdg, or the default 737.
I may be wrong on this but once you have built your cockpit is not the only thing you need is the FS9/FSX platform, or X-plane etc.
