Which 727 is that? 

I have the FlyJSim for XP11 which is not study-level, but is somewhat the level of complexity scales pretty good.

Thats the flyjsim pro. Odd, I was under the impression it was study level.. Fantazstic little plane though. Simply completely love the beast ::lol::, although, i must say that with as easily as i tire any more,   flights as long as or longer than a couple hours are seriously taxing so i try to make short hops of just a couple hundred miles.. Maybe the bay area to LAX..
I would also highly recommend the 737-200V3 by the same authors. Very fun..

I have the v2 version, and I looked at the receipt and it does say "study level".  I think I just have mine set to make it easier to get going.  I've only been in the XP11 since Christmas of last year.  A lot to learn ... but I do like the better 'feel' of the flight dynamics and how the outside world moves more realistically.  I run a custom rig that uses the NVidia surround features to stretch 3 displays into a 5780x1200 main monitor.  Love the sensation of speed during takeoff and landing ... and the way the sim responds to throttle inputs.

I also have the Wilson 707 and L-1011 which are a blast.  My next foray is to look at the X-Life Traffic.  I do miss my custom traffic I had in P3D.

welll, I have mine set to be flown by an idiot ::LOL::.. It starts with engines running and ready to go. I still do everything via VFR ( even from forty thousand feet ) and if i get lost, i have a GPS. All these years, i would open the flight model, make a change on a number, start fsx and test the change, then exit fsx and make another change. Do that a few thousand times and i think anyone gets tired, so things like civa, fms and navigation go out the window. I just want to fly any more so i make it as simple as possible.. I also have an efb which gives me a map thats better than the gps for when i really get lost ::lol::. One of the things i like best about xp-11 is that the language used in the flight model is totally alien to me. I  havent got a clue how to change it and that pretty much suits me fine because i only have to fly :) ..
So, do we support X-Acars yet??  would love to fly again..

I'm using the kACars free with my X-Plane 11.
It's been a while since I did that install, but I think all I had to do was to use XUIPC instead of the old FSUIPC.  Works just like it does in FSX / P3D.  I do have to right mouse click on it an select "run as administrator", but that is due to WinBlows 10.

Try a google search for kacars x plane 11.
