May 26, 200422 yr I agree upon creating a turboprop that has not been done as payware by someone else.On the one hand Fokker F27 or F50 would be nice, I have seen KLM's Cityhopper at EDDK several times and I would like to have a proper rendition of those turboprops - maybe even as part of the EXPRESS line (although the I like to have all the complex systems modelled)On the other hand Fokker 70/100 would be nice also. There exists a freeware version, of course, but we might wait for an update for a long time. This one would not fit into the EXPRESS line, of course.Let's wait for the 747 first; I guess PMDG has got enough to do with that beast...
May 26, 200422 yr I would have to agree with Pete.. A Metro would be great! Done up in Regional Express :) Cheers,RyanProfessional Coffee Drinker/BAe146 DriverAircraft Maintenance Engineer
May 26, 200422 yr >My vote would be for an ATR or Dash-8. Sure, they've been>done, but they haven't been done by PMDG. :)http://atr.flight1.net/index.htmDavid
May 26, 200422 yr Hey Ross,What's wrong with the F1 ATR in your view? Hopefully it wont be simply a case of "If it ain't PMDG it ain't goin'"Wouldn't want to see it done through the Express product line. If PMDG were going to do an ATR it would have to be a full product.The panel bitmaps on the F1 ATR would be better than an ATR made by PMDG. Lou Betti is a master at the art of photoreal panels.If only PMDG would make photoreal panels for the NG (HINT ;))CheersDavid
May 26, 200422 yr Hi David ... I don't believe I've said anything was wrong with the F1 ATR. In fact, I have never flown it. And I'm not a PMDG bigot ... of the three payware products I own, two are PMDG, and one is EagleSoft. (The Citation X ... very nice.) All I know is that if PMDG makes a plane, it will be worth the asking price. And for me, flight model and functionality are what's important, and eye candy is secondary. Personally I think photoreal panels often fall short of their apparent goal ... the mixing of real-life photos with rendered switches and gauges becomes painfully obvious the more photo-real bitmaps are used. In other words, to each their own. :)(Edit: why can't I ever spell "gauges" right??)
May 27, 200422 yr How about a Cessna Skymaster 337G? Pedro Lima"The sky is the home of birds... we are just guests... guests of honor" Peter Besenyei"...redundancy is very important in aviation; that is why airplanes have 2 wings instead of 1!" M.S.A.Q.My videos
May 27, 200422 yr Although I love the Beech 1900 I would hope first to just see the 747 completed instead of another express product. I am enjoying the 737ng and figure I will keep flying that until the 747 is finished. Andrew Andrew
May 27, 200422 yr I think someone should do a poll! Maybe then PMDG will decide what to do based on the market, at least that would be the smart thing for them! Image Coming... KregE | B757/767 FO
