Based on the 727-200 advanced version, this add-on brings more power, new sounds and advanced aircraft systems to Microsoft Flight Simulator.
At the heart of the upgrade are the JT8D-217C pod engines with iconic clamshell thrust reversers, paired with refined flight dynamics and a high idle mode for authentic handling. In the cockpit, the aircraft gains digital fuel gauges, auto spoilers, dual DME receivers, and a moving map display. A digital VSI with integrated TCAS enhances situational awareness and can also be used with the base 727 packages.
The biggest highlight is the Collins EFIS suite (optionally available via clipboard), complete with APS-85 autopilot and VNAV functionality. This retrofit replaces the traditional ADI and HSI with modern electronic displays, offering pilots the choice between classic instruments or advanced avionics for a versatile flying experience.
Both passenger and freighter variants benefit from the expansion, with a range of authentic Super27 liveries included.
This package is designed for sim pilots who want to experience the Boeing 727 in its upgraded Super27 configuration – a unique blend of retro charm and modern capability.
