A fully-featured Boeing 787 freeware package for Microsoft Flight Simulator X and Prepar3D including 3 different models and 56 repaints/liveries of real-world airlines. Fully compatible with the latest FSX: Steam Edition and Prepar3D v4.5+ (and backward compatible too).
Affectionately named the "Dreamliner", the Boeing 787 (originally the 7E7) is a mid-size, long-range aircraft manufactured by Boeing has been adopted by many real-world airlines and flight sim users alike.
The 787 flight sim model was originally developed by TDS and a complete Virtual Cockpit (VC) by Alejandro Rojas Lucena/FSND (with modifications using Ken Wiggington's 737 VC tweaks) has been included. The compilation of all of the features, repaints, and compatibility (especially in P3Dv4) was completed by Chris Evans.
People have, over the years, shifted over from using 2D panels and the most requested feature now for freeware aircraft is a working 3D VC. The VC included in this package is based on a 737-800 VC with some changes to make it look more like the 787's cockpit.
Features
56 Liveries/repaints included.
Three different variants - 787-8, 787-9, 787-10.
Custom sound packs.
Fully functional VC (Virtual Cockpit)
Advanced animations including opening the pilot's window, working wipers, and rain effects.
HUD (Head-up display) on some aircraft.
FMC, G1000 MFD on some models.
GPWS (Ground Proximity Warning System).
Checklists, FMC documentation, and user manuals included.
The package has been created in a certain way for ease of use. There is no need to edit .cfg files, manual add repaint configuration, panel settings or anything like that - simply drag the relevant folders into your copy of FSX or P3D and load the aircraft up in your simulator.
Each aircraft/folder is complete and separate making it easier to use. While doing it this way makes it easier, it does mean the initial download is larger. However, we find users prefer larger downloads over manually editing configuration files and learning how to add repaints.

Installation
Unzip the entire archive to a temporary folder.
In the root folder of the extracted archive, there are 5 folders. Copy the contents of the "Sound" folder into your main FSX or P3D Sound folder.
Copy the contents of the "Effects" folder into your main FSX or P3D Effects folder.
Inside the "Aircraft Packs" folder there are 56 different folders representing each different Boeing 787 mode/livery in the package.
Inside each of these folders are a selection of screenshots and the actual folder containing the aircraft model and paint which your simulator will use.
Copy this final folder (if confused this folder will contain the ".air" and "Aircraft.cfg" files) into the FSX or P3D "\SimObjects\Airplanes" directory.
You should do this for each variant you want to use.
Once complete, you should now find the aircraft visible in your copy of FSX or P3D.
