Bryan-Have you considered doing FS2Crew for any A2A products? ie; the B-17 which has a crew??

I'd really love it if you could approach A2A and see if you can work together for their next big airliner.I already posted a similar request in the A2A forums which was read quite often but didn't get a single response.... yet I still think that this would be a great idea!FS2Crew added so much realism, fun and a little workload that I can't imagine flying my JS41 without it...On a big old airliner where you are replacing three people it could help manage the workload, but again also create an immersing atmosphere!As for the B17, I fear there may be quite a bit of additional work required from A2A to get those products working together, but as I said, maybe for the next product! =)Cheers!!

A B17! That'd be interested.I'd definitely need an SDK for that.The other problem would be finding the manuals that break down the "crew flows" in such an old plane.

For the manuals: you should talk to A2A, they have a mass of information on this Plane. Judging by the way they do their planes, I'm guessing you'll find ample material on crew flows...!!And again judging by their way of wanting to have those planes as realistic as possible I guess they'll be happy to collaborate on a product like this, which pushes realism again.Plus, since you are (rightfully) worried about market size, I think a well done version for multi-crew A2A planes would sell very well. I bet most will be interrested and (if it stays at 20-30$) more than enough would actually/purchase it.After all the A2A fan-crowd is relatively "hard-core", so most should appreciate this option to immerse them further in their favorite planes!Cheers

I'd prefer the A2A Boeing 377 Stratocruiser instead... There seems to be pilot's manuals lurking around as well.
