Use this one. Mike Stones B757-200 has wheels. These are more of a reapplication of other painters' textures, so don't look for them any time soon at a library near you. But if you have more talent than I, go for it.

Just finished some testing. the gear stays down, but the aircraft appears to operate normally. I've substituted the default 737 airfile.

One caveat: I found this plane to be a big frame-eater awhile back.

i've upgraded my system since then, so i'll likely give another shot. (i've now got a Geforce3 ti500 and 512 of RAM, instead of 384 and a Geforce 2.)

this isn't a knock on Mr. stone's plane, which i find amazing in its detail and complexity. it's just that precisely those things make it taxing for the computer to render as AI.

Most anything other than the default aircraft tend to be cpu intensive. What I have discovered while taking shots with this many airplanes, is that the ATC transmissions really slow things down. If you just let the AI traffic do its thing in while you stay in radio silence, (that includes not listening), the frame rates do increase.
