With the 744 as an example, I'm guessing you'll get at least the major GE, PW and RR models. I'd also be willing to guess, based off of the way the NGX was done, that you'll get the base -200/300, and then an ER/LR package, and perhaps a freight variant as add-on packages.

I hope for a 777-300ER at Initial Release, cause thats the only one i will be flying :D

That's quite rude! Ridgey was asking a simple question, no need to come back and say that..

The 200 is much better proportioned though! I would hope the 200 is the base, and the 300 an add on.

Thanks man, newbies though so I don't fret.

i think it will start with a 200ER and a 300ER (or 200) to rival captain sim's effort Then the LR and F and the plain 200 will follow

I doubt it would be to rival anyone else's efforts, really. I wouldn't put the two developers in the same category, really.If anything, it would be because the ER versions are the most popular with the airlines.

ERs will most likely be first since they'll be used more. Then probably LR and LRF in an expansion then classic 2/300s.

I agree with this. I can't see them not releasing one of the two ER variants for the LR or F because the ERs are the most common.

In New Zealand, if a kiwi says "Crack-Up" it means funny, the person is funny. Nothing rude about the comment , just mis-interpreted I guess which can happen in a global forum.

I'm sure we will get plenty of the versions. The 200er and 300er are the most popular than give us the LR and LRF. Those are the four I want. I have said this a few times already but a NGX and 777X is the perfect FSX fleet combo

Steven Herzberg,

This is what i was thinking. The ERs are the most common varients, and then i would expect to see 2 expansions. The Lr and LRF in one expansion and the 200/300 "Classics" in another.
