January 12, 2004 - We now have the new beta software up and running on all computers. These PICTURES show the captain and first officer instruments as well as the EICAS.

**January 11, 2004** - Remember United 232 which crashed in Sioux City, Iowa on July 19, 1989? I would think most aviation enthusiasts do. That was the flight in which Captain Al Haynes struggled with the crippled DC-10 and unbelievably saved many lives through his efforts. Well Captain Haynes needs our help now. READ about it here.

January 9, 2004 - Today we received yet another updated beta of Project Magenta's new 767 software. I captured
a screenshot for folks to see. Much like his other Magenta products, Enrico has made this so easy to configure. You
merely right click any instrument and drag it to where you want it. Then size it with the (+) and (-) keys.

Just yesterday I wrote Enrico asking him to develop a radio altimeter gauge. The same day he replies with a newer beta. I installed it and low and behold there was a radio altimeter. Unbelievable! You would be hard pressed to find better product support anywhere. If you would like to see the screenshot, click HERE.

January 6, 2004 - Well you may recall back on September 30 of 2003, I informed folks that Enrico Schiratti, founder
of Project Magenta, had finally agreed to model the 757-767 after my never-ending begging. Well I'm happy to announce that I have been beta testing the software for Enrico and he has called upon me for various input. I cant begin to tell you how happy we are and cannot begin to thank Enrico enough. The software package is quite versatile allowing users to re-size and position the gauges. A 'systemware' package is also in the works which will allow for modeling of complex systems like the air conditioning, hydraulics and more.

I have posted some pictures taken today of the simulator with the latest beta version of the Project Magenta 757-767
software running.
