[Guest DominikMaas]

is there an estimated release date for the MD-11?

>is there an estimated release date for the MD-11?I see you are new. Lesson #1: Don't ask PMDG about release dates.A minor miracle did occur a couple weeks ago, however. In the Sept 1 update at the top, they offered a target of this month for the FSX 747 and said of the MD-11 that they were "few months away". That is the most I think you will ever be able to hope for in terms of release dates from PMDG who's standard release date is "when its done".Steve Kurth

>Me too Alex - 3 years sounds about right>>GerryI think you are confused. PMDG isnt the same company that put out an amazing 767, and keeps claiming they are going to release a 757 for FS9. opppps. I mean FSX, or is it FSXV. Atleast we will see the MD-11 soon, and have seen screenshots to know that it does exist.Jonathan

jonathan,Agreed - it isn' the same. The release of the 757 with the other company does not atract all that much heat and debate does it? I wonder why? Is it because the word "soon" has become so elastic here?Gerry

We raised our prices, it unfortunately happens. I don't see how you can attribute a moral quality of "nice" or not to setting a price for computer entertainment software.I thought we were past these comments months ago when the switch happened...

That's a pretty bold accusation, considering that it comes from someone who's not privy to internal workings of PMDG. We're not out to deceive anybody. The explanations have been given time and again in the past. Please don't troll here - this subject has made its course, no?

>>Because it wouldn't have the appearance that you were>attempting to decieve anybody.>>Steve Kurth.This is imo a completely ridiculous accusation. PMDG deliver top products, maybe the best of the market. Their products are worth every penny whether it is in dollars or euroes. Their prices are visible to everybody - so how can you say that they trying to deceive people ???It almost borders on defamation - to say something like this
