Have you serched avsim

Search avsim or flightsim.com for Kittyhawk models. You have to search also a good panel, since they're aliased to the standard 737-400 panel. On
these two sites there's a very good one made by Targan Unutmatz.

I once used this panel which mimics the PMDG panel but without all the FMC and the advanced features. It has GPS built into ND and it looked pretty
impressive with all the land outlines and things like that, wish I had that in 737NG...

For payware, it's the PMDG
Know you're not looking for that one, but what the heck

I know alot of people say the KittyHawk 737 is the best freeware 737 out there... they have a 737-800 version with winglets as well. Some of the
users apparently like the KittyHawk so much that they are using the KittyHawk 737 with the PMDG panels. However I never used the KittyHawk but only
go on what I read in the past... maybe give it a try?
The file is kittyhawk_737-800.zip (original aircraft) and can be found on avsim... search for Kittyhawk Productions 737-800 and a list of repaints as
well as the original should appear.
Over here you can fins a panel for it

And maybe if you dont mind using a 737 classic panel you might try this one as it seems to be very nice and is freeware...

And here looks like to be a very nice 737NG panel from the same guys the above 737 Classic panel comes BUT this one will be released as payware..

Please note I havent used any of the above as I'm using the PMDG but have read up alot on 737 forums and it seems those mentioned above is what people
like most.
Hope it helps...

Huge help, thanks a million. I'm spending too much on gas flying a 757 from San Fransisco to LAX. I need something that burns a lot
less petrol.

The PS Panels site has a neat PDF file for download. Has some recommendations that work with even the PMDG 737 panel. I went
ahead and printed that manual (I like reading manuals). Looks to be interesting! It's only 45 pages though

Hey: Jetflyer, old buddy!

Welcome back!

What was this mentioned for? I don't think anyone's arguing with you. lol... just struck me as odd.
And actually, it's a highly refined form of kerosene. Not just straight kerosene!

Exactly what I was thinking boss!
You know how us Americans are, Jetflyer. We call everything gas, whether it's gasoline, diesel, JetA..
If you listen to that Pod file with the Jet Blue pilot talking he says over and over again how he has "27000lbs of GAS" and not fuel. :-) He's
a professional talking to professionals and calling his fuel load gas.
