Thanks!

Wonder if this will be a shared flightdeck is included or an EFB?

Both Shared flightdeck and EFB are laudable, and very well regarded. But VR will blow your mind! If PMDG can make the queen play nice with VR programs like Flyinside etc., In a relatively short time you will know how it feels to be IN the cockpit, not looking at it in front of a screen. The 737 NGX is a bit better with VR than the 777, not as taxing! The next round of CPU's and more powerful video cards will make a big difference.

What also will/should be in the works are yokes, flight sticks, and gloves with sensors. A Spanish company is developing gloves that can feel rain drops and be used to play an on screen piano, and the lady plays like a pro!

Flyinside is still beta, but I believe the guy deserves support. I support software I have a high regard for, doesn't everyone?

Of course that includes PMDG.

Best.

Have you considered the Dreamlifter variant as an add-on down the road (post 8i/F) release?

Thanks for the update Sir, very good info, and she's more sexy than ever, great screenshot...

[Richard McDonald Woods 168]

I have moved away completely from the B744 to the B777 so as to get the later avionics.

 

I will be reluctant to purchase the B744 again. But I would most certainly be interested in purchasing the B748, though that will depend upon the upgrade pricing.

Captains,

 

As promised in my update from 18JAN17, I wanted to swing through tonight and give you some additional information on the upcoming release of the PMDG 747-400 Queen of the Skies II.

When is it coming to X-Plane Robert?

[JohnsonPBX 8]

Oh dear... Looks like someone's not going to pay his cellphone bill and purchase a shiny, brand new Queen of the Skies instead! Great news, will be patiently waiting.

[rquick 19]

Great news. Hopefully, there will be instructions on doing a Posky merge as well.

This I am happy to pay for. All those aircraft for around the price of 777X for P3D. That makes sense. Not   (Censored) airbus for the same price.

Fantastic, outstanding work!  Fingers crossed that one of "my" 747s will be represented..

 

D-ABTB - 747-430, "Brandenburg"

D-ABYA - 747-8i, "Brandenburg"

 

Yes, I'm selfish.   :wink:

PS - interesting bit of trivia..  the ">" in "Canadi>n" had a twofold purpose.  First, it was the logo for Canadian Pacific.  Second, the airline didn't want to go through the trouble of offending French Canadians by using the English spelling:  (Canadian vs. Canadien).  So they subbed the logo in..

[cosnowboarder_777 11]

Excellent news, looking forward to it.

The Queen soon! And a new President! Life is good!
