FlightFactor has released the update for the 757 and 767 lines that bring the airplane fully into X-Plane 12. This update also includes some minor bug fixes and other planned improvements to the product. 

The FF 757 and 767 Products cover almost all variants of the 757/767 from the medium-range narrow-body 757 to the long-range widebody 767 including: 

• 757-200
• 757-200SF
• 757-300
• 767-200ER
• 767-200SF
• 767-300ER
• 767-300F
• 767-400ER

The packages also include the option to transition between the older style of avionics and the newer LCD “glass panel” avionics. Passenger and Cargo variants come with custom vehicles to fit either model which can be controlled through the included EFB.

This update covers both the FlightFactor Boeing 757 Professional V2 and the Boeing 767 Professional. This includes the recently released FlightFactor Boeing 767-400 covered on Threshold a few weeks ago, the complete changelog can be found below:
