Well thank gawd they don't rush. Do they usually release at a certain time of day? I know dumb question but I figured it would not hurt to ask

Unlikely to happen. PMDG doesn't rush to get things done, as we all know, compared to FeelThere.

Not sure what you mean by 'rush'. Feelthere releases great products all the time and dont spend aeons developing and promising.Their ERJ 135 and 145 is being used by the Belgian's Defense 15th Wing Transport as a training tool. That speaks volumes of the product.sam b.

I remember downloading the J41 at like midnight in New York, and that was right when they released it. That was definitely a long night / early morning - which ever way you want to look at it haha.Can't wait for this new bird! Thanks again PMDG!

As far as I remember, the Queen & MD-11 were released fridays...

Isn't feelthere the developers of the Wilco AIrbus Series??

I'm going to respectfully bring another reality check here, if I may. It was stated many months ago that they (PMDG) would announce when this project goes into Beta. That's what you should be looking for, a beta announcement, not a release. After they announce the beta, then you can probably add 3-6 weeks on to that. Hoping this will steer expectations into the right direction.

I agree Curt, but hopefully it will actually be announced when it goes to beta. Has PMDG announced their other aircraft when it hit Beta? I'm just curious since I never seemed to be on the forums at all for any of the releases other than the -8 which had no announcement of beta. PMDG (from what I've seen) likes things to be more covert and secretive. It all comes down to A.) Beta is announced so we can all put things into our own hopeful timeline or B.) They do the Beta as hush hush, keep people hanging/guessing and surprise everyone. I personally prefer the former to actually know a bit more than nothing since while waiting for other releases I just lost interest, stopped simming and then got it a year or so after the fact once I got back into my hobby.For me personally, I can't wait for it to be released, but at the same time can't afford it right now so rather it not be released until then, hahaha (I'm sure people will hate that comment, sorry but honest). I mean seeing it available and knowing "IT COULD BE MINE!" but not having the coin to get it would be soooo much more torturous to where I would probably consider a bank job or perhaps a kidnapping just to get it :(

Yes, indeed. And it is also the best Airbus simulation out there at the moment, I should think.And for your information, an upgrade to the existing airbus product is in the works: You read it here first. There's a new improvement pack coming from Wilco Publishing for their Airbus Series (FSX/2004) : A318-A319-A320-A321-A330-A340. AVSIM has been told, "this pack will include stunning new features as well as improved existing systems This improvement pack will be available separately for the different Aibus Series versions"

Guys, enough with the FeelThere stuff please... I like their products a lot, but what we're doing here is a lot more complex honestly. ERJs don't have VNAV or autothrottles, the FMC routines aren't as complicated etc... We're also doing a degree of 3D modelling here that has never been seen before in FS. I flew around testing a bit last night and I know I'm biased but this VC is just astounding - there's nothing else like it anywhere, you guys will flip when you actually see it in the sim.

Ryan, everytime you or Vin said that the VC is so good, everytime I am a little jealus that you are able to fly those Planes during developement :(

Don't you know it's bad luck to see the bride before the wedding? Hehe, I think it would actually work the other way for me. I mean, I have been part of some projects from the Alpha testing phases and seeing how the inner workings are sometimes done can take away the fun,,, well, in some cases anyway.

We must be nearing the beta stage

Will this come with westjet if so i will love it cant wait im checking every day when i get this ill post so many reviews Brandon Danyluk

I think with the J41, they started showing complete screenshots in airport surroundings, on approach, etc..during the beta period. They want to make us salivate for this, but not to where we become dehydrated and require intravenous fluids. Tease, not torture, that's their way.

Can we see more Pictures ?:(
