I too would like to see the 200ER and 300ER versions, as they are the most popular.Also, I do hope we see some kind of ACARS feature. I would really appreciate the ability to get live weather and runway information, particularly during long haul flights with real world weather.@ aceridgey: What a beauty! Cannot wait...Kind Regards,Awais M.

^^^ Deltawithout the wheels, that looks so much like a 763, especially the nose

Or this absolute stunner . . .

That's probably because the nose / cockpit section on the 777 is identical to that section on the 767

with all due respect, you have no idea what your talking about

Correct, the 767 and 777 share the same section 41, so from some angles they look very similar.Put 'Boeing Fuselage Section 41s' into google - there's a great thread on a.net by that name with good comparison photos.

One has to realise that the LR's capabilities not only can be used to stay airborne a gazillion hours. You can also fly a 200ER route but taking with you a bigger payload. Take the LR to its maximum ZFW and watch the range drop...The 200F (based on the LR) will be even better, load that one to its teeth and enjoy decent "short" longrange flights.The 200LR is not only about flying 18 hours non-stop, this very much depends on the mission you want it to fly.Markus

Agree 100%. A -200LR and a -300ER would be the best choices.

i think we can safely say we will have the 200ER and 300ER, the question is will we get the LR and LRF. i hope these 4 are the variants for this addon, the 300ER and 200LR/LRF share the same or similar engines, with the 200ER being the only one where 3 engine variants will be needed. i seriously cannot wait for this addon, some nice 15hour flights!!!

I have said it before but I would love to see the 777's camera system modeled... I know that would be an FS first and with all the detail PMDG puts into the undercarriage who wouldn't want to see that on one of the PFD's while taxiing :( Paul SolkEdit... And for once it wouldn't be the usual simmer question " who wants to look at the outside of the plane while taxiing" because it is exactly what they do on the RW bird. (I think it is a company option though because I am not sure if Continental's birds are equipped with it but I could be talking out of my arse) :LMAO

Yea, I would love to see the Ground Maneuver Camera System (GMCS) to mainly experience how 777 pilots taxi with accuracy. :)-Paul Garrote-

If PMDG can figure out how to put additional cameras on DUs in the VC, that would be amazing. They guys at VRS spent a decent amount of time trying to get the FLIR display on the hornet, and were unsuccessful.
