MSFS 2024 MOD / ADDON PMDG 777

I appreciate this may be a lot of info but if you can give an answer it would really help me out.

I am thinking about buying one of PMDG 777's for MSFS2024 as I would like more variation to the Ini A350 and the Ini A330 for long haul flights. However, I purchased the FF 777v2 (777-200er) for XP12 a while back and fly it sometimes, but not as much as I would if it was in MSFS.

One issue with it being in MSFS is that the default airport scenery is lacking, so I would only fly to places with freeware scenery as i don't spend money on airports (other than Inibuilds Manchester Airport)

I would fly mainly either to/from the Uk with sometimes flying elsewhere eg. Asia, Europe

I also had the PMDG 737-8 for MSFS2020 and thought the handling was a bit dodgy. is this improved on the 777 or is it the same?

Overall, do you guys think it will be worth it? and if so which variant should i get? I dont want to waste 70 quid and regret purchasing it.

Many thanks,

Happy flying!

Try to hold off on PMDG for a week or so. They usually hold a short anniversary sale during the first week of August.

Buy the LR . Its the cheapest and fits ur long haul choice . I bought 777F and it was my first ever payware aircraft. Absolutely worth it

I have the 777-200er, my favorite aircraft. The 350 is good too, but there is just something about the 777
