First look: World Airliners

UK-based Just Flight has today released information on its latest expansion pack for Microsoft's Flight Simulator series. World Airliners is actually a boxed set containing updated versions of two previous add-on packs: Phoenix Simulations' 777-200 Professional and 747-400 Professional.

Unlike the original versions, those contained in the World Airliners pack boast full compatibility with Flight Simulator 2002 . Owners of the boxed editions of 777-200 Professional and 747-400 Professional can download free updates for FS2002 compatibility from Just Flight, while anyone who purchased download editions should get their updates direct from Phoenix Simulations.

World Airliners is scheduled for release in Europe this week. No North American release has been confirmed at this time, but we'll bring you more information on the game as soon as it becomes available.
