Ok, I have to ask you guys at PMDG: Why would you announce yet another 747; albeit of your renowned superior quality prior to your delivering the long awaited (overdue?) 737-800/900??? As I fly a lot of flights with Continental Virtual, I'm attempting to be very, very patient waiting for the 800/900 birds. Any idea of when I can cease holding my breath? (I'm turning bluer by the second):-hmmm Steve

Well I for one see that the expected release of the 800/900 to be febuary and none announced for the 744. This can only lead one to conclude that the 800/900 will be released prior to the 744.JohnP 2.53 GHZ512 RAMWINXPGFORCE 4 128MB Ti4600http://homepage.eircom.net/~eamonnmca/images/logo_ba.JPGwww.bavirtual.co.uk Senior Captain Simflight.com Staff Reviewerhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/IMAGES/logo_mini.jpg

That's good news. Thanks!

The 800/900 is most definitely coming out before the 747...

The 744 far off. The only bird that will be on the work bench shortly is the 800-900 and BBJ. The *Queen* was mentioned to let the customers know the future plans AFTER the 737 series ;)[h4]Best Wishes,Randy J. Smithhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/betaimg.jpg

Randy,Do you know if the screenshot used on the PMDG site is from the current alpha of the 744?I noticed that the PFD and ND are missing...?JohnP 2.53 GHZ512 RAMWINXPGFORCE 4 128MB Ti4600http://homepage.eircom.net/~eamonnmca/images/logo_ba.JPGwww.bavirtual.co.uk Senior Captain Simflight.com Staff Reviewerhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/IMAGES/logo_mini.jpg

Just a rough cut John. Only dealing with the bitmaps since the *displays* have not even been created yet. I assume those displays shown are from pictures to make the artwork look er.. well more presentable ;)[h4]Best Wishes,Randy J. Smithhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/betaimg.jpg

Yes, that's correct. I'm still in the process of building the cockpit.Sincerely,
