August 7, 201114 yr Never fear, the Majestic Q400 is going to be an absolute peach of an aeroplane. There's a massive gap in the market for this bird and I feel PMDG are missing a great opportunity by building the 200/300, but hey, it's their train set ;) So do you mean they should be doing a Q400 too?? :D Best Regards, Tristan Marchent - UK fATPL(A) - EMB 195 First Officer System: Intel i7-6700k Skylake CPU, 4 Cores (4.0-4.2GHz, Overlocked 20%), Asus Z170 PRO GAMING MBO, Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 8GB, Corsair Hydro H80i V2 CPU Cooler, Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO DDR4 3200 C16 2x8GB, Windows 10 Home 64-bit (512GB M.2 PCIe SSD), Prepar3D V4.5 (1TB Samsung 850 EVO SSD), 4TB SSHD Hybrid Drive, EVGA GQ 80 PLUS Gold 850W Modular PSU

They know what they are doing and I'm sure that they are very aware of what other developers are releasing. Robert Yunque
August 7, 201114 yr Can we stop asking about the Dash 8 and 777 and just enjoy the NGX? Please? AJ Pongress
August 7, 201114 yr I don't believe PMDG is "missing" anything. They know what they are doing and I'm sure that they are very aware of what other developers are releasing. You don't believe they are? That's only your opinion, like it is mine that they are missing an opportunity. On the other hand if you think developers get it right 100% of the time you are sadly mistaken :) Tristan, no, not now mate. See you Friday :) Rgds Dean May Happiness is a limp windsock
August 7, 201114 yr Maybe they'll throw in the Dash 7 too!!! YES please Tom Risager NGX tutorial: http://library.avsim.net/sendfile.php?Location=AVSIM&Proto=ftp&DLID=162360 SIDs & STARs Worked Examples: LOWI-UUDD, KSEA-KLAX, EKCH-ENGM, YSCB-YPAD
August 7, 201114 yr hehe, For the Dash 7 fans: PS: anyone know how to make these youtube video's embedded in the post? I remember it used to work. Patrick Houghton
August 7, 201114 yr "As of now, we also have two products in development that we have not shared with you. Both will be unveiled when the time is right." this is what I've been interested in for a while. there's an old saying I've always enjoyed using "give a mouse a cookie, he's gonna want a glass of milk" - we just got our cookie (NGX) and, whilst its fresh and tasty....WHERES MY GLASS OF MILK????

August 8, 201114 yr I really hope PMDG would concider creating an expansion to the Dash-8 to include the -100.. the little warrior is serving dozens of airports in Norway in any weather condition.. I would, and I think I speak for many more, greatly appretiate that one Kind regards Werner Rafteseth Intel i7-2600K, Corsair H60, Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600 16GB, GeForce GTX 960
August 8, 201114 yr Personally, I hope it's not the -300. If it is, I won't be buying it. I'll wait for the 777 unless it includes the Q400. Matthew Bellette
August 8, 201114 yr Commercial Member I really hope PMDG would concider creating an expansion to the Dash-8 to include the -100.. the little warrior is serving dozens of airports in Norway in any weather condition.. I would, and I think I speak for many more, greatly appretiate that one Well if the 200 is done it is somewhat pointless doing the 100. Granted there are some differences between the two aircraft. What would be good is if the 200 or if you put it so a 100 is done that both EFIS and electromagnetic cockpits be simulated. With the 200 you get the best of both worlds between a 100 and 300. The 200 has the airframe of the 100 but has PW123 engines on it (same engine that the 300 uses - in essence the 300 is a stretched 100). We used the 200s them with no problems in the Florida market and they performed exceptionally well. Although the 100s were used as well they were more prone to weight restrictions due to the high temps in the region. Whichever model PMDG chooses to model I know it will be done to the level and probably better than the J41. Well we have seen what the 737 has offered thus far!!

August 8, 201114 yr I'm all for the Airbus A3XX series. Everything to date is crap (no names here) and thats just my opinion. J Thomas YBBN
August 8, 201114 yr Everything to date is crap (no names here) and thats just my opinion.LOL. Would be great if PMDG made one of the bigger Airbus planes A330/A340 etc. Anyway, PMDG are making the Q300 which Im very happy because AirNZ Q300's always fly over my house to land at NZTG runway 07. Would be awesome to do this in FSX. - Edward Boyte | Youtube
