For me also. Ignore my name this time. I vote on PMDG777Dirk

Gotta be the 777!!!!!!!

I'll 32nd the vote for a 777-200ER. But I noticed that no one has mentioned the Airbus A-380 "Dancing Elephant". A friend of mine has the Abacus version, it sucks. Is there a good version of it or is it simply too early for one to be out?

Respect to you guys who have several of these high quality, high end simulations like the PMDG 747, 737 and the level D 767,and use them at the same time. That`s an awfull lot of information and procedures you have to have in your head to fly them well.Flying the 744 for a living is great fun,and a dream come true,but after doing some test flying on the PMDG 744, I like nothing better than to jump in a Realair spitfire,SF260 or scout and go blasting through the valleys low level!.Fantastic flight models and superb smooth instruments for flying IFR!But PMDG are still the best ;-)regardsJon

Just the thought of a PMDG 777-200er/300 makes me drool. Pmdg mops up the competition if there was any.Gideon

Ahh Jon, you assume that we fly them well though. :-)In fact owning the 767 and/or 737 allows you to really see the way in which Boeing flightdeck and avionics design has evolved. It's almost as fascinating as flying them in fact.

But the Feelthere EMB and B737-300/400/500 has something to offer. I personally go more for the EMBs but both are very good. Almost to the PMDG standards although they might lose out in terms of advertisement as not many people have heard of them yet as they do not appear in webbys and magazines that much. Well I still go for the A340s or A330s as I am guessing that the FBW systems are too tough to reproduce accurately in FS2004 for anyone.Regards,Alex G

Hi thereAs much as i agree with the posts about PMDG making a "Better" B777 than is currently availble, I would prefer that they did that at a later date or as a second project, I think a "better" Airbus would be a better option. But if i was able to sway those in the know I think the best thing that PMDG could release next is some form of Business Jet, either the Citation X or a gulfstream 5, There is a rather lacking payware Citation out there, but no Payware G5. The business jet market i feel is somewhat lacking in FS, with either poor freeware or incomplete Payware. Eaglesoft are about the best option at the moment but they lack a decent cockpit and no FMC.I love flying the Heavies, but sometimes be nice to have something that can do the distance but get into the smaller airfields/airports aswell. You only have to search forums on here for people looking for a decent Biz jet to see how much of a demand there is for one.Just my opinion anywayRegardsJames

>X or a gulfstream 5, There is a rather lacking payware>Citation out there, but no Payware G5.You might not be aware of it but Gulfstream as a company has a long standing policy of not sharing any information about their aircraft with folks trying to simulate their aircraft in the sim/gaming industry (they are outright hostile to such idea). So we can dream about other bis-jets but Gulfstream is pretty much out of the picture.Michael J.http://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/for...argo_hauler.gifhttp://sales.hifisim.com/pub-download/asv6-banner-beta.jpg

Miserable lot!LOL

I've lost count at the amount of times, people have wanted a 777 from PMDG, but I'll add another vote on the sheet!The 777 is a very rewarding aircraft, lovely to handle, easyish to get used to, as its a work on dark concept like the 744, and everything else sling into AUTO until something goes wrong.Plus the Electronic checklist means less paperwork!1 key bit, more 777's cross the North Atlantic a day, than ANY other airframe, shows how popular the aircraft is and how reliable she is, and of course the small matter of Cost effectiveness!Try and name an aircraft doing BOS-LHR that can depart with a TOW of 207.5 tonnes and only need 39 Tonnes of fuel, and laning with just over 5 left. A 747 can't and a 767 would be overweight!And proof if needed (from my last trip from Boston with BA)P 1 OF 9 BA 238/23 BOS-LHR ETD 1210/23AUG04 777GE G-VIIK ETOPS ETPS CRITICAL FUEL/TIME VALIDATED 180 MINSC/S BAW238 M 4.0 KBOS-EGLL P 1.0 T/O SLOT .... 169.0 ZFW .... 1845 ATA ....

I wonder when PMDG will finally tell us that they're new aircraft is gonna be the 777-200/300.Dirk

Ya know... I've all the PMDG jets and love each of them. They are all unique and wonderful to fly in their own individual ways. While we all have preferences... I'm sure we all agree that, looking at PMDG's track record, anything they choose will be an outstanding simulation when finally released. The tri-jet is one I'm really looking forward to.

I love PMDG but I almost wish they werent doing the MD-11, theres really not too many of them flying around anymore and I really think we are all desperate for a 777-200ER, its such a great airplane and PMDG is such a great company. Just my opinion.

I too would like to see a 717 as mentioned in the first post. However, what I would really love to have is a PMDG quality Convair 580, or DC-6/7. Old fashion I know, but gotta love em! John B.
