Why PMDG?

Featured Replies

What is it about PMDG that makes you love and enjoy their products so much? For me, it is their devotion to every product. Yeah, they might spend a few years for each product, but look at the results in the end. I'd rather spend my money on a company that not only knows what they are doing, but that also care about the products they make. I will never spend another penny on any other company for FSX. What about you guys?

Basically that's it. There's no better way to experience flying the plane than to hop in the real thing or a full motion sim.

I wouldn't go that far (Apart from Scenery developers like Orbx, I have purchased stuff from Realair (Duke) and Carenado (light single/twin GA) and would consider FSlabs if their A320 turns out awesome). But certainly the PMDG aircraft are the top of the best list for RPT airliners. Recently I'v made a ... what may be termed as a "Fleet Rationalization" and all of the PMDG products for FSX survived the cull. Most of the other RPT fleet did not.Of course the minute I see a PMDG 777 or Dash-8 available for purchase, I will be adding said aircraft types to my RPT Fleet.Regards,Trent Hopkinson

I am not sure but I think I can drum something up after the 777.

Attention to detail. They made a real effort on the NGX just as they have with all thier aircraft. I have never purchased an PMDG aircraft that was not outstanding. Every new aircraft brings something new and fresh to the collection. Modern Computers are getting faster and more able to run FSX and I can see that PMDG are keeping a eye on this and making their aircraft just about right in terms if computing requirements.My 2 cents.

Wow, that last line is a lil overkill. You really can't think PMDG is the only high-quality developer for FSX.

When it comes to aircraft A2A is on the same level as PMDG, thats for sure.

To put it simply, many years ago while doing a CATIII approach into EGLL in the PMDG 744 I had the electrical page selected on the lower EICAS for some reason. During the approach the screen went blank and a message displayed. I checked the FCOM and was blown away by the fact that they bothered to simulate something that probably 2% of people would ever find.It kinda sums them up really.
