Captain Sim never released a native P3D v5 installer. Users must manually copy FSX/P3D v4 files, leading to instability.
Here is an in-depth breakdown of the Captain Sim 767 in Prepar3D, covering its development history, systems depth, known issues, and how it compares to other 767 simulations.
Morning brought frost and a new crew of mechanics who arrived like soldiers to fix an old circuit. The fuel valve was replaced, systems tested, and the 767 warmed to life with the bureaucratic joy of recertification. They loaded the aircraft again, and the passengers—rebooked, forgiven, oddly intimate after shared delay—climbed aboard like actors returning after intermission.
The "767 Captain II" includes functional flight decks with simulated FMC, LNAV, VNAV, WXR, and EGPWS Community Forums:
: Uses the ACE (Aircraft Configuration Editor) for managing liveries, cockpit states, and payload/passenger configurations.
Captain Sim has done an admirable job translating this to P3D. The aircraft feels heavy during rotation (requiring a firm pull on the yoke around VR), yet nimble in the air. The flight dynamics model takes advantage of P3D’s advanced physics engine, meaning you feel turbulence effects on the control surfaces.
