Reviews:

Excerpt from X-Plained.com:
"I have split the review into two parts. Part 1 deals with the aircraft itself, externally and the interior. [..]
Having completed Part 1 of the FlightFactor/SteptoSky review, I am impressed by the model’s 3D exterior and interior. [..] Remember, the FlightFactor/SteptoSky 777v2 is not just called “Ultimate” for nothing. It is indeed of an Ultimate level, packed with new features, ready for the future."
