Am I remembering correctly that the R4D was SUPPOSED to be done around the MAAM weekend timeframe or did I imagine that comment?? Mike B.

Mike,Last I heard, it would not be out until post FS2004's release. I believe the team will confirm that next time someone appears.Ian P.:-halo

Here I am, and I do hereby confirm the following: ;-)Since MS announced the release of FS2004 COF earlier than expected, we felt it was the best policy to put out the Gmax R4D for both FS2002 and 2004 in one whack. Besides, we ran out of time, as usual. The official release date of the all new Gmax R4D is.........drum roll, please....................September 26 at the AVSIM Simulation Exhibition and Conference at MAAM. Jan has done some beautiful screenshots of the new shiny metal skin for our old girl that I printed and displayed at WW2 Weekend. I'll ask him to post a few here as soon as he notices this. :-) We have lots of great new features planned for the R4D CD and we'll tell you about them in the coming weeks.So, come to the convention to be among the first to fly and buy the Gmax R4D CD for FS2002/2004. The download version, which will not include any of the CD extras, will not be available for several weeks after the show, as was the case with BT. So, if you can not make it to the show, you will be able to order the CD from the museum that same weekend (not before) when the order form is activated, September 26. The price will be the same as before - $25 plus a $4.95 worldwide shipping charge.At the same time, we will also be making BT FS2004 compatible and after a beta test - after the sim's release, obviously - we will put out a free compatibility patch for current BT owners.Bill Rambow MAAM-SIM - Rambow, Visser, Banting, Young, Womack, and Hamblyhttp://www.fssupport.com/maam_sim/maamsim_logo.gif
