PMDG-MD11 Project duration?

[Guest Susan27]

Hi,I am really interested how long such a software project with this ammount of in depth detail takes time:I found confusing information how long you PMDG guys worked in total for that lovely aircraft-project MD11 (3-8 years?)...So could someone of the PMDG crew or betateam please tell (if its not a secret) how long it took from the first idea to the conclusion of this project...? :)Thanks very much!KR

I think Robert described it very well in his release notes:Eight years ago, Bill Grabowski launched development of what he planned to be an in depth simulation of the MD-11 airplane. He was joined soon after by the very talented Michael Frantzeskakis. Four years ago, Bill, Michael and their MD-11 project was joined by the rest of the PMDG team.Michael J.http://img142.imageshack.us/img142/9320/apollo17vf7.jpg

Thanks Michael, so in "reality" it was a sukzessive project regarding the personal...wow, to work 8 years for a single project must be very demanding in all aspects...
