That seems like it is quite the modification and would be difficult to do across all the types they are doing in this package. It not only changes exterior elements on the aircraft from a modeling perspective, but also would have to retexture the Flap handle to add a 60 degree slot, the FMC programming. Seems like it would change the take off/and landing characteristics enough to probably need it's own flight file as well. Is a pretty cool mod though, and goes to show the continuing versatility of the 737 production line.

FLAP 60! Wow, can't imagine that much flap, flap 40 nearly looks vertically down from the wing, but flap 60 would be a new extreme.Edit: been 3 weeks since this post was started, hopefully new update soon.

No guarantees on the SFP stuff, but we have talked about it and we're well aware that it exists.

guys,signing your name, is not becuase it can prove if you bought the addon?i bought both my 747 and md11 in the flight store here in the uk,, how will pmdg know i have bought it, and what my name is??come on peoples ;)i think its to do with basic eticate.. its easy to sign your name, just go to the top right of ya screen >>signiture>>your name, and then you dont haffi type it! :)

Sorry chaps,Where are you getting the Flap 60 from? Only reference I can find is the spoilers deflect to 60 degrees now. Slightly different!Amman.

At the risk of being yelled at by the other paying customers, maybe a product extension later?

yeah, there is no flap 60 added. It's just the spoilers deflected at a higher angle once on the ground. The lower approach speed comes from the extended tail skid, which reduces risk of tail strike, therefore allowing higher angle of attack on approach, therefore, lower airspeed. Follow the links I posted earlier and you'll see that.Ryan, I hope you can at least put it on the 737-900ER, as that production model comes standard with the short field package.

Dear Ryan,I use some marvellous high defenition repaints for the MD 11.Are you using HD for the exterior models for the NGX too?It makes the plane beautifull.Regards,Eric

The resolution of the external textures for the PMDG 737 NGx exceeds any other repaint created by any other author for any other airplane, in all of FS history. How's that for an answer? :(

As far as I know, GOL Airlines have about 3 engineers working together with Boeing to attend company´s specs. The SFP was one of the major achievements of this joint work, since SBRJ is not critical only for the runway length but also for the obstacles around (terrain and the Rio-Niteroi bridge).

Vin,The best !!Thanks,Eric

This is what you see everytime a good developer is coming close to the point where the product can be released. People start writing down their special wishes for the product. If the developers would take all these wishes seriously a product would never be ready for release. So I hope PMDG will just finish the product so it can be used in normal conditions and save the special stuff for the servicepacks.With kind regards,Arjen van Groos

Hi!So, could you share with us how large the files for one repaint will be approximately? Will this also mean less repaints by PMDG (never cared about all those liveries)RegardsMagnus

Looks like I did misread the SFP thing.. thought it said flaps 60. Was wondering how they didn't hit the ground at that angle.. Guess it was just an increase in spoiler deflection and not flaps. That is good the the resolution of textures will be awesome. Good thing tricks to increase frame rates are being used along with increasing clarity and detail.
