Where I think this shows potential for being fake the most is the way PMDG's name is mentioned as another entity, other than the one who made the video "In April 2009 PMDG announced a new Turboprop Series..." If it were PMDG don't you think they would have said ".... we announced"?

Actually, I would expect it as "PMDG announced" and not "we announced". If they used "we" then it would reveal that it was actually PMDG. By using "PMDG announced", they remain "anonymous". :( This was very well played and thought out by PMDG, but it would seem that we've finally unveiled the truth. I'm quite impressed!The single fact that the account still exists and is posting new videos is proof that it is PMDG. If it were someone else falsely advertising under their name, they would have taken immediate legal action. Wouldn't it be funny if the account conveniently disappeared now...? :(

, you won't have to wait long to see if it's real or not, because the end credits say "PMDG 747-400X -8i/F Product Extension: January 2010" and even though it also says "All dates approximate", this video was put out just yesterday, so if it is PMDG, then they are pretty sure it will be done and released this month.

And since when did PMDG release anything on time? :( Cheers, Chris Dalgarno

Where is this truth? Sorry but I am not impressed by your 'truth' logic of trying to deduce that this was originated by PMDG. So far all your arguments are extremely flimsy. Based on standard practices of PMDG it is not difficult to see this is fake. I could bet a significant purse on that. And by the way, no, this guy in all likelihood will never need a lawyer. Do you know anything about the law?

There is no way PMDG would let something like that fly. Ever.What is true is that PMDG has not taken the guy down for it, and has not made an official statement saying that everything he is posting is false. It would not be in their best interest to let the guy continue spreading false information under THEIR name.That is obvious! Just put yourself in their shoes.PMDG could EASILY get this account deleted from youtube if they wanted. I've seen flat out stupid people successfully remove others from there. There's no way a company like PMDG couldn't.Your argument presents no evidence and is even flimsier. There is nothing that says that PMDG can't change the way they advertise. They are getting a boatload of free publicity from all of this, and they know it. And for the record, there's absolutely nothing wrong with that!

Then I guess nearly every single developer is "amateurish". I cannot think of a single developer that has never posted any preview shots.

Sorry I should have explained it abit, I ment when you publish unfinished/WIP renders.

Shoop da whoop!!! :(

the render looks like a dash 8-200 or -100 whereas PMDG is aiming for -400 as far as I know.I say fake.

Cannot wait!! I thought the model looked fantastic especially the engine chevrons. :(

Agreed, I also look forward to the Transparent windows :( The gloss on the paint look (shine) was pretty sweet as well.

If I owned PMDG and was type rated in the 747, like Mr. Randazzo, I know which plane I would be updating.Jeff P.
