It will be a treat for me as I just wrapped up a Carenado XP review coming soon.

Now, I can only agree with what's said there, although in my one: read nothing, set nothing fly around so far, I had x-plane CTD with no notice after about 10/15mins. Need to see what's going on there - word is - get the x737 out of the aircraft folder.
Will see how she goes stability wise, but this plane flies like butter.
I haven't touched on the systems, but compared to our freeware there's just no contest. This feels expensive. It's like getting into a PMDG, and then finding that the flight model is superb (it's x-plane after all - silky smooth and none of those weird jerky flightpath adjustments I've seen in the PMDG MD11) and your frames are still fluid.
First impressions: This definately feels like a pro product - you know how the doors have a solid thunk when you close them, and the leather has that smell and feel to it?
I do need to adjust the first setting for pilotview plugin (which has a file premade) and sometimes I need to zoom in more to see the displays better, but this is a plane I am glad to own.
More once I have properly flown with procedures and then updated the navigraph data.

Well, my first attempt to run X-Plane post install resulted in a huge hang up when the x737 was being interrogated, so like you say, I think I need to "remove" that first.
Need to fly the first leg of the event first though, so that'll have to be in FSX...

Here's a free sound replacement for the runway roll by one of the best sound engineers on the scene.

Its a vast improvement over the cheap and tacky sounding shudders, creaks and cateye rollovers that ship with the plane.
EHM-1997 Alexander:
Heads up that the x737 crash issue also affects XPUIPC.
It's apparently fixed in the next patch, but obviously this is a deal breaker at the moment as this is needed for flogger.
